Typically only available in the retail gourmet food channel, Wicked Gourmet's new partnership with epicureanfoods.com presents a new way for the company to bring its 30-plus product portfolio to specialty food lovers across North America through epicureanfoods.com's website.

"This is a partnership that we are highly confident will work well for both epicureanfoods.com and Wicked Gourmet," states epicureanfoods.com co-owner Greg Sprout. "We've done extensive research into all of the product categories in which Wicked Gourmet competes and we are absolutely convinced that their products are above-average quality, are very reasonably priced and overall, represent excellent value to our customers. We're very pleased to be working with the management team at Wicked Gourmet to expand their distribution to gourmet food lovers everywhere."

A spokesperson for Wicked Gourmet expressed his optimism about the new distribution deal recently formalized with epicureanfoods.com: "We've known Phyllis and Greg for many years and had discussed doing business together. As their web business has grown steadily, it seemed like a natural "fit" to be working together, as they are able to effectively service many customers that we simply cannot. We think it's a great partnership!"

epicureanfoods.com distributes literally 1000's of "hard-to-find" gourmet and specialty foods through its website. It has a wholesale division, where they service specialty stores such as gourmet shops, gift shops, gift basket packers, wineries, fruit markets, delis, cafes, catalog & mail order companies and department stores. It also has a thriving retail division where they offer their products directly to the consumer. Product offerings include specialty oils, vinegars, pastas, sauces, cookies, teas, coffees, chocolates, truffles, marinades, olives, pestos, tapenades and healthy snacks.
