2019 Recap 3 of 3 - Salsa Awards, More Than 50% YOY Growth and New Accounts
We are now fully into 2020, and reflecting on the past year, I am proud of all of the accomplishments that Salsa God achieved during 2019. Salsa God opened up a number of new high volume accounts, exceeded 50% year-over-year (YOY) growth and continued dominating salsa contests across the country. We truly believe that Salsa God Salsas are the best tasting salsas on the planet, but don't just take our word for it. In 2019, Salsa God won numerous awards in national salsa contests, and in 2020, we've already locked in a 1st place victory (1st Place - Hot Salsa Category - Scovie Awards - Salsa God Hot Fire Roasted Red Salsa).
