William J. Armanino, President and CEO of Armanino Foods said, "The first quarter, traditionally our slowest, showed a significant increase over last year's first quarter, as continued gains from sales to new accounts, principally food service chains such as sandwich and pizza shops, helped to increase sales."

Armanino continued, "We are introducing in the second quarter an array of new pesto sauces and pasta products for our Food Service customers. A more limited number of pastas will be sold at retail through in-store deli's." Armanino concluded, "Although our focus groups have been excited about the prospects for these new products, and are pleased with the number of new accounts we have opened and will continue to open over the course of the year, we remain cautiously optimistic about the remainder of 2008."
