Bergio International Expanding Into ShopNBC
FAIRFIELD, NJ, Apr 15, 2013 (Marketwired via COMTEX) -- Bergio International, Inc. (OTCQB: BRGO) announced today they are expanding the brand into ShopNBC, a major television shopping network for high end jewelry and other luxury goods, beginning May 7th, 2013.
Bergio International came to a contractual agreement with ShopNBC on October 4th, 2012. ShopNBC is a multichannel electronic retailer which has a strong presence in home shopping via television as well as other avenues such as online, mobile, and social media. The network is broadcast into over 82 million homes across the United States through cable affiliates and satellite, including Comcast, Optimum, Dish Network, DirecTV and Verizon Fios in addition to offering a live stream on their website www.shopnbc.com .
ShopNBC reported revenues of $587 million for the year of 2012. As of 2012, the company reported a noticeable increase in jewelry sales. Sales of Jewelry & Watches, along with Health & Beauty, Home and Fashion & Accessories has recently grown over 12% within the past year.
Berge Abajian, CEO of Bergio, stated, "The execution of this launch took longer than originally anticipated due to the modification of certain designs to best fit the ShopNBC customer demographic. This launch will further the brand to different avenues which we did not have prior access to."
He continued, "I encourage all shareholders to support us by watching and referring others to the broadcast on May 7th, where I will personally be featured on the program as the designer. By doing so, we hope to sell out quickly and have a successful launch. Please refer to the program guide on www.shopnbc.com to find out when it will be aired, which is usually posted a week prior to the broadcast."
He added, "We also have other opportunities currently in the works, which will be revealed once the final details have been ironed out."
