March 5, 2009 Fran McDougal Vice President, Sales & Marketing Food Lion Corp. 41 Curdsin Way Eudora, AR 71414 // ** Dear Ms. McDougal: ** // We are in the midst of a candy crisis in this country. Our demanding palettes have been stifled by big candy corporations; as a result, our taste buds have been denied their basic taste bud rights to experience the world of truly delectable confections. Rogue’s Roost Candy Company offers a solution: liberate the taste buds of your loyal Food Lion customers by offering a wide range of candies that dazzle their collective salivary glands. Food Lion, along with its loyal base of customers, will greatly benefit by offering Rogue’s Roost’s fine products because our candies are unique, they are proven local favorites and sales leaders, and our company offers an innovative, cost-effective marketing strategy to ensure the success of our products in your region. Rogue’s Roost offers a unique line of delectable candy products, all capable of competing with the big boys. The Dutchie, our flagship candy and the first candy bar our founder invented back in 1936, is an enticing blend of our famous pretzel-peanut chocolate fudge, caramel, nougat, and rich dark chocolate. The hint of saltiness from the handmade pretzels gives The Dutchie a balance and texture that transcends any other candy bar on the market today. For the true chocoholics, we offer the Pasture Pattie, a veritable chocolate explosion of thick milk chocolate fudge drenched in dark chocolate. And once our customers have reached their chocolate threshold (though we’ve never reached ours), we offer two unique bite-sized taffy treats: Caramel Apples and PB&J’s. Along with these surefire favorites, Rogue’s Roost offers six more candy products, not including our local holiday favorites, offering something for every candy lover out there. Rogue’s Roost’s candies are more than just great ideas, however; they are proven local favorites, a part of our community and our heritage in South Central Pennsylvania. During the 1950s and 60s, The Dutchie was the top-selling candy bar in the Susquehanna Valley, and even today, despite our limitations as a small-market candy company, The Dutchie continues to hold its own against the global candy giants. Likewise, Noogies, our bite-sized candy-coated morsels of our pretzel-peanut chocolate fudge, have outsold M&M’s and Reese’s Pieces in multiple years here in York County. Our community loves them and is devoted to our products. I personally receive letters and emails on a daily basis from folks as far away as Idaho, having tried a Dutchie or a Hanover Hunk while visiting family in the region, wondering how they can get their hands on a Dutchie in their own local markets. Our nation’s candy palette is ready for more. tewgsedghg
