(Food-Beverage-News.Com, March 25, 2015 ) Beaverton, Oregon -- Dez Roye, founder and CEO of Cuzzina, a kitchen products company founded in Oregon in September 2013, reports that the company achieved its highest sales ever in the fourth quarter of 2014. She says "the holiday season pushed us over the edge and we saw an incredible sales spike."
Cuzzina, which sells a popular ice ball mold on Amazon, has achieved over 225 reviews on Amazon with over 200 of them being five star reviews. The company manufactures it's product in China and imports it to Amazon warehouses. Their website states, "Our own branded product is put through a rigorous testing process in order to meet our exacting standards. " The reviews of the product speak about the high quality of the mold, which is made from an FDA approved, food grade silicone that is BPA free. The molds can be purchased on Amazon and have a money back guarantee.
The popularity of the product, claims Roye, is a result of the company's focus towards high quality products that are fun to use. She states, "We all know that cooking can be fun but just as importantly the tools you need should also be a joy to use. Our ice ball maker is simply fun to use. It's also proving to be a firm favorite for our whiskey loving customers as a slow melting ice ball keeps the whiskey cooler for longer than whiskey stones without compromising the taste."
In addition to the product being purchased by end users themselves, it is also a very popular gift item, especially during the holidays. The Cuzzina Ice Ball Maker comes packaged in a box which includes two ice ball molds. With each purchase of the molds, a downloadable 24 cocktail recipe Ebook is offered to their customers as a bonus.
"The holidays are centered around food and drink, so there is a natural focus on products like ours. Additionally, customers raved about our product being an excellent stocking stuffer," reported the CEO. While Business Insider reports that Amazon hasn't released their sales numbers from fourth quarter 2014, they have reported substantial growth (D'Onfro, 12/24/14). States Roye, "Selling our product on Amazon is a perfect choice for us. Many of our customers have Amazon Prime, which eliminates the shipping expense. That is a great bonus for everyone."
Started in 2013 as a result of a passion for kitchen gadgets, Roye's company has additional products in the pipeline and looks forward to further growth in her internet business. She further states, "Branding my own kitchen tools was a dream come true for me which was the inspiration behind Cuzzina. The word Cuzzina means ‘kitchen' in Greek (my parents are from Greece) so it seemed the perfect choice for my brand."
