TABLE OF CONTENTS
An investor should rely only on the information contained in this prospectus. The Company has not authorized anyone to provide different or additional information. This prospectus is not an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the common stock in any jurisdiction where it is unlawful to do so. The information contained in this prospectus is accurate only as of its date, regardless of the date of delivery of this prospectus or of any sale of our common stock.
This summary highlights some information from this prospectus, and it may not contain all the information important to making an investment decision. A potential investor should read the following summary together with the more detailed information regarding the Company and the common stock being sold in this offering, including “Risk Factors” and the financial statements and related notes, included elsewhere in this prospectus.
The Company
Global Diversified Marketing Group, Inc. is a food and snack manufacturer, marketer and distributor through its subsidiary Global Diversified Holdings, Inc . in the United States, Canada, and Europe. The Company operates through snacks segments offering Italian Wafers, French Madeleines, Wafer Pralines, Mini Honey Wafers, Puffs Bites, Coconut Rolls and other wholesome snacks. The Company sells its products direct and through various distribution channels comprising grocery retailers and food-service distributors, as well as the vending, pantry and micro market segment.
History
Global Diversified Marketing Group, Inc., formerly known as Dense Forest Acquisition Corporation (“Global” or the “Company”), was incorporated in Delaware on December 1, 2017. The Company filed a registration statement on Form 10 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on January 19, 2018 registering its common stock by which it became a public reporting company sixty days thereafter.
Dense Forest Acquisition Corporation filed a Form 8-K noticing the filing with the State of Delaware of an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to change its name to Global Diversified Marketing Group, Inc. as part of a change in control of the Company. On June 13, 2018 the Company effected a change in control with the resignation of the then officers and directors, contribution back to the Company of 19,500,000 shares of the 20,000,000 outstanding shares of its common stock, and the appointment of new officers and directors. On June 14, 2018 new management of the Company issued 12,500,000 shares of its common stock to Paul Adler, the then president of the Company.
On November 26, 2018 the Company effected the acquisition of Global Diversified Holdings, Inc., a private New York snack and gourmet food company, (“GDHI”) by the Company with the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for the outstanding shares of common stock of GDHI. GDHI became a wholly-owned operating subsidiary of the Company (the “Acquisition”). The transaction is accounted for as a combination of entities under common control since the date of the Acquisition.
Prior to the Acquisition, the Company had no business and no operations. Pursuant to the Acquisition, the Company acquired the operations and business plan of GDHI. The discussion hereinafter of the business and operations of the Company refer to the Company subsequent to the Acquisition of GDHI and all such discussions primarily report the operations of its now subsidiary unless otherwise so indicated.
Business
The Company (through its subsidiary GDHI) is a successfully operating snack and gourmet food company. The Company travels the world and attends global food trade shows to look for unique products and snacks. When it locates exciting and suitable products, the Company will enter into a non-exclusive manufacturing contract with a factory to produce the product under the Company’s own trademarked brands for sale in the United States and global markets. Currently, the Company maintains five 10-year trademarked brands; each of which trademarked brands covers numerous variety of products (known as “SKU’s”) offered under that brand name. The Company has non-contractual on-going relationships with several Fortune 500 companies including club and retail chain stores. The Company sells directly to these companies which purchase the items from the Company and distribute the items to their outlets for sale by the outlets. The Company also sells and distributes to vending machine channels as well as food service distributors.
The Company sells its products throughout the United States and global markets to buyers which typically represent recognized large retail chain stores. The products are then distributed by the chains to their local outlets. The Company locates and develops snacks and gourmet foods to brand under its trademarks based on feedback and demand. The Company works closely with buyers to determine what products to locate and produce and to supply to the buyers.
| - 3 - |
The Company intends to continue to develop additional gourmet foods and snack products under its own trademarked brands expanding the Company’s offering portfolio. Management believes that the acquisition of small brands that have regional success and adding these to the Company’s national distribution can immediately generate additional revenue streams for the Company.
Risks and Uncertainties facing the Company
One of the biggest challenges facing the Company is the ability to raise adequate capital to develop and execute its business plan and to locate and market new unusual food products. The Company has established relationships with buyers representing large chain retailers who also serve as distributors of the Company’s products. The Company intends to develop new and original snack and gourmet food products to present to its retail chain accounts. If the Company were unable to develop strong and reliable sources of funding for project opportunities, it would be difficult to locate and produce new products to offer to these retail chain buyers.
Trading Market
Currently, there is no trading market for the securities of the Company. The Company intends to initially apply for admission to quotation of its securities on the OTC QB or QX as soon as possible which may be while this offering is still in process. There can be no assurance that the Company will qualify for quotation of its securities on the OTCQB or QX.
The Offering
The maximum number of Shares that can be sold by the Company pursuant to the terms of this offering is 2,500,000. The offering will terminate twenty-four (24) months from the date of this prospectus unless earlier terminated by the Company.
| Common stock outstanding before the offering | 12,880 ,200 | (1) | ||
| Common stock for sale by the Company | 2,500,000 | |||
| Common stock outstanding after the offering | 15, 380 ,200 | |||
| Offering Price per share | $ | 2.00 | ||
| Proceeds to the Company if all Shares sold | $ | 5,000,000 |
(1) Based on number of shares outstanding as of the date of this prospectus.
A purchase of any Shares is an investment in the Company’s common stock and involves a high degree of risk. Investors should consider carefully the following information about these risks, together with the other information contained in this prospectus before the purchase of any Shares. If any of the following risks actually occur, the business, financial condition or results of operations of the Company would likely suffer, the market price of the common stock would likely decline, and investors could lose all or a portion of their investment. The Company has listed the following risk factors which it believes to be those material to an investment decision in this offering.
The Company depends on its President to manage its business effectively and loss of the President could significantly impair the Company’s results.
The Company’s (through its subsidiary) has a developed track record of bringing successful new products to the retail chain buyers for the placement and sale of the Company’s products. This track record has been developed by the President of the Company, Paul Adler, and his ability to locate and produce unique and quality snack and gourmet foods attractive to the buyer market. The loss of Mr. Adler as the Company’s President or in active management of the Company could have a significant negative impact of the operations of the Company. Such a loss could impact the production of current product, the relationship with the retail chain stores and development of future products.
| - 4 - |
The Company’s founder beneficially owns and will continue to own a majority of the Company’s common stock and, as a result, can exercise control over shareholder and corporate actions.
Paul Adler, the founder and President of the Company, is currently the beneficial owner of approximately 97 % of the Company’s outstanding common stock and assuming sale of all the Shares will own 81 % of the Company’s then outstanding common stock upon closing of the offering. As such, he will be able to exert significant influence and potential control over matters requiring approval by shareholders, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions.
The Company’s independent auditors have issued a report raising a substantial doubt of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
In their audited financial report, the Company’s independent auditors have issued a comment that unless the Company is able to generate sufficient cash flows from operations and/or obtain additional financing, there is a substantial doubt as to its ability to continue as a going concern. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $21,515 and an accumulated deficit of $23,734. Additionally, the Company had accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $357,909. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company attributes the losses in 2018 to the legal fees incurred in order to go public. The Company is in a period of expansion which causes some cash flow changes. The Company has a strong relationship with its suppliers and has good credit terms with them. In order to meet such expansion demands the Company has a revolving credit facility in place. The Company has had discussions with its clients what needs to be done to increase orders in 2019. If, in fact, the Company is unable to continue as a going concern, the shareholders may lose some or all of their investment in the Company.
The gourmet and snack food markets are dominated by several large strong food producers.
A challenge facing potential new or expanding entrants in the market is the dominance of leading snack food producers, particularly industry leader PepsiCo. Large producers experience a high degree of brand and consumer loyalty and possess sufficient capital to invest in extensive advertising and promotions to obtain a greater market share. Furthermore, companies such as PepsiCo benefit from higher profit margins when compared with small- to medium-sized operators, enabling them to lower their product prices to engage in price-based competition with competitors. Multinational producers also experience lower per-unit costs due to economies of scale and scope. Although these factors do not prevent a prospect from entering the industry, they may hamper the success of new entrants.
In addition, many industry players have established relationships with downstream retailers, which may be difficult for new entrants to secure. Typically, supermarkets give companies with established brands the most optimal shelf space. Moreover, larger producers have established relationships with upstream suppliers, an advantage that new entrants may find difficult to replicate.
The Company has four major customers that account for 100 % of its sales
The Company has four customers that represent 100% of its business in 2018 which is up from such customers representing 95% of the company’s business in 2017. The largest of these customers represents 31% and the smallest 20%. The loss of any one of these customers would have a material impact on the Company’s business and revenues until such time as the Company was able to locate other customers. Although the Company believes that it could locate replacement customers, the initial loss of such revenues could hamper on going production and distribution of the Company.
No assurance of commercial success of any additional products.
The Company intends to seek and produce new products to add to its trademarked brands and to offer its buyers. The Company may spend a large portion of its revenues in locating and producing such products and the possible inability to market such products to the retail chain buyers, or the failure of such products to sell successfully once marketed could significantly impact the operations of the Company and impact its future ability to market other new products.
| - 5 - |
Possible dilution in the value of Shares purchased by investors in this Offering.
In the future, following the completion of this Offering, the Company may desire to raise additional capital for further expansion. Any such raise of capital may encompass an offering of the Company’s shares of common stock. If the Company does effect an equity offering of its securities and if the price paid for shares offered in such an offering is less than paid by the purchasers of Shares, then such purchasers will suffer a dilution in the value of their Shares.
In addition, if the price paid by present shareholders is less than the price paid by early investors or shareholders, then upon purchase of the Shares, current investors will experience a dilution in the value of their Shares. Furthermore the issuance of such additional shares may impact the ability of any investor to sell their Shares once such shares are eligible for sale.
The offering price of the Shares has been determined by the Company based on its past operations and estimated projections and such price should not be used by an investor as an indicator of the fair market value of the Shares.
Currently there is no public market for the Company’s common stock. The offering price for the Shares has been determined by the Company based on its estimated projections and does not necessarily bear any direct relationship to the assets, operations, book or other established criteria of value of the Company. Thus, an investor should be aware that the offering price does not reflect the fair market price of the Shares.
There has been no prior public market for the Company’s common stock and the lack of such a market may make resale of the Shares difficult.
No prior public market has existed for the Company’s securities and the Company cannot assure any purchaser that a market will develop subsequent to this offering. The Company intends to apply for quotation of its common stock on the OTC QX or QB when appropriate. However, the Company does not know if it will be successful in such application, how long such application will take, or, if successful, that a market for the common stock will ever develop or continue on that or any other trading market. If for any reason a trading market for the Shares does not develop, investors may have difficulty selling their common stock should they desire to do so.
The Company has authorized the issuance of preferred stock with certain preferences.
The board of directors of the Company is authorized to issue up to 20,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value preferred stock. The board of directors has the power to establish the dividend rates, liquidation preferences, and voting rights of any series of preferred stock, and these rights may be superior to the rights of holders of the Shares. The board of directors may also establish redemption and conversion terms and privileges with respect to any shares of preferred stock. Any such preferences may operate to the detriment of the rights of the holders of the Shares, and further, could be used by the board of directors as a device to prevent a change in control of the Company. To date no shares of preferred stock have been designated nor issued.
The Company’s election not to opt out of JOBS Act extended accounting transition period may not make its financial statements easily comparable to other companies.
Pursuant to the JOBS Act of 2012, as an emerging growth company the Company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period for any new or revised accounting standards that may be issued by the PCAOB or the SEC. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the standard for the private company. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with any other public company which is not either an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible as possible different or revised standards may be used.
| - 6 - |
The Company does not intend to pay dividends to its stockholders, so investors will not receive any return on investment in the Company prior to selling their interest in it.
The Company does not project paying dividends but anticipates that it will retain future earnings for funding the Company’s growth and development. Therefore, investors should not expect the Company to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. As a result, investors will not receive any return on their investment prior to selling their Shares in the Company, if and when a market for such Shares develops. Furthermore, even if a market for the Company’s securities does develop, there is no guarantee that the market price for the shares would be equal to or more than the initial per share investment price paid by any investor. There is a possibility that the Shares could lose all or a significant portion of their value from the initial price paid in this offering.
The Company’s stock may be considered a penny stock and any investment in the Company’s stock will be considered a high-risk investment and subject to restrictions on marketability.
If the Shares commence trading, the trading price of the Company’s common stock may be below $5.00 per Share. If the price of the common stock is below such level, trading in its common stock would be subject to the requirements of certain rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These rules require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with any trades generally involving any non-NASDAQ equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per Share, subject to certain exceptions. Such rules require the delivery, before any penny stock transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith, and impose various sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally institutions). For these types of transactions, the broker-dealer must determine the suitability of the penny stock for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transactions before sale. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in the Company’s common stock which could impact the liquidity of the Company’s common stock.

This prospectus contains, in addition to historical information, certain information, assumptions and discussions that may constitute forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially than those projected or anticipated. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes its assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot assure an investor that the forward-looking statements set out in this prospectus will prove to be accurate. The Company’s businesses can be affected by, without limitation, such things as natural disasters, economic trends, international strife or upheavals, consumer demand patterns, labor relations, existing and new competition, consolidation, and growth patterns within the industries in which the Company competes and any deterioration in the economy may individually or in combination impact future results.
The following table lists the anticipated use of proceeds from the sale of the Shares assuming sale of all the Shares or a lesser amount thereof.
The Company is offering the Shares to be sold by it on a best efforts basis such that the funds received from an investment in this offering will be available to the Company immediately for use. Funds will not be placed in an escrow account and there is no minimum investment amount that needs to be reached before the funds are available for use by the Company. Estimated use of proceeds:

Broker-Dealer Compensation : The Company may attempt to locate broker-dealers or selling agents to participate in the sale of the Shares as long as the broker-dealers are registered with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). Total compensation to such broker-dealers and finders will not exceed an amount equal to 10% of the gross proceeds. The Company intends to offer the Shares directly without payment to any officer or director of any commission or compensation for sale of the Shares.
Direct expenses includes website upgrades, marketing materials including product samples, trademark applications, and outdoor marketing materials; long-term assets includes computer, accessories and office equipment.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
There is no public market for the Company’s common stock and the price at which the Shares are being offered has been determined by the Company using its past operations and estimation of projected business and returns for the Company. The projections are the best estimation of management and there is no assurance that any such results will be reached. The share price does not necessarily bear any direct relationship to the assets, operations, book or other established criteria of value of the Company.
| - 8 - |
The Company does not anticipate that it will declare dividends in the foreseeable future but rather intends to use any future earnings for the development of its business.
Purchasers of the Shares may experience immediate dilution in the value of their shares of common stock. The shares issued prior to the offering herein have been issued for a value less than share price offered herein. Therefore immediately after purchase of Shares in this Offering, the value of those Shares will be reduced. In addition, if the Company should sell shares in the future at a price less than the per share price offered herein, then the value of the Shares purchased will be further reduced.
Dilution represents the difference between the initial public offering price per share paid by purchasers and the net tangible book value per share immediately after completion of the Offering. Net tangible book value per share is the net tangible assets of the Company (total assets less total liabilities less intangible assets), divided by the number of shares of common stock outstanding.
The following illustrates this dilution per Share:

General

THE BUSINESS AND BUSINESS PLAN
Current Business Operations
The Company’s subsidiary, Global Diversified Holdings, Inc. (“GDHI”) is a successful snack and gourmet food company. Hereinafter the term the “Company” refers to the Global Diversified Marketing Group, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary GDHI.
The Company travels the world and attends global food trade shows to look for unique products and snacks after which the Company will source these products and produces them under its own trademarked brands for sale in the United States and global markets. When it locates exciting and suitable products, the Company will enter into a non-exclusive manufacturing contract with a factory to produce the product under the Company’s own trademarked brands for sale in the United States and global markets. The objective of the Company is to be a major manufacturer, marketer, and distributor of unique foods and gourmet snacks.
| - 9 - |
Currently, the Company maintains five 10-year trademarked brands; each of which trademarked brands covers a numerous variety of products (known as “SKU’s”) offered under that brand name. The Company has non-contractual on-going relationships with several Fortune 500 companies including club and retail chain stores. The Company sells directly to these companies which purchase the items from the Company and distribute the items to their outlets for sale by the outlets. The Company also sells and distributes to vending machine channels as well as food service distributors.
Retail Outlets
The Company sells its products throughout the United States and global markets to buyers which typically represent recognized large retail chain stores. The products are then distributed by the chains to their local outlets. The Company locates and develops snacks and gourmet foods to brand under its trademarks based on feedback and demand. The Company works closely with buyers to determine what products to locate and produce and to supply to the buyers.
The Company intends to continue to develop additional gourmet foods and snack products under its own trademarked brands expanding the Company’s offering portfolio. Management believes that the acquisition of small regional brands that have success in the regional markets and adding these to the Company’s national distribution can immediately generate additional revenue streams for the Company.
The products are chosen based on the trend of consumer interests as garnered by the Company as well as certain requests from the buyers as to what they are looking for to add to their product offerings. If the product sales are not within the projected targets, then the Company will discontinue that product. To date, the Company has not discontinued a product for failure to meet its projected targets.
Although the Company does not have long-term contracts with any of retail chains, it has been supplying its current chain retail stores for several years. In the food industry, there are no on-going contracts. A buyer will place a Purchase Order with the Company and the Company will deliver on it. If the product does well, the buyer typically will continue to reorder the product. Typical payment schedule for the Company’s products are net 30 day terms.
Vending Operations
In addition to placing its products with large retail chains, the Company places its products in vending machines throughout the United States. These vending machines are located in malls, service stations and schools. The Company works with vending companies that have, in the aggregate, more than 100,000 machines nationwide. The Company supplies vending companies with product. The Company works directly with some vending companies and with others through its food service distributors. The broker pre-sells the products and the distributor services the accounts. When the distributor services the accounts, the distributor buys product directly from the Company and pays on a net 10 day term.
Products and Trademarked Brands
The Company currently has five trademark brands. Each trademark has a 10-year certification Each brand encompasses numerous SKUs which are brought to market from time to time. The Company produces its products for sale by its retail chain buyers.

Retail Chain Buyers
The primary distribution of the Company’s products are through several major retail chains. The Company works with the buyers who place orders for the Company’s products. The retail chain represented by these buyers will then distribute the product to its retail outlets.
Marketing
The Company’s products appeal to a wide range of consumers, including most all age brackets. The young snackers, classified as those being between the ages of 18-34, tend to consume more snacks then average adult but the gourmet foods reach the broader adult market. The senior market tends to reduce snacks and gourmet foods.
The Company anticipates that its marketing strategy will use the internet and social media, having viral marketing contents via Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. The Company’s distribution channels consist of retailers, distributors, online e-commerce and vending companies. The Company’s marketing strategy is primarily targeted to the vendors and retail chain stores. The Company intends to utilize social media to create direct consumer interest in its products.
The Company anticipates utilizing the following opportunities to further their marketing program and to obtain information to adjust and modify, as needed, the marketing program.:
Networking . Networking is a low-cost but often effective means for the Company to generate partnerships and growth while bolstering personal commitments to the Company. Management will join wholesalers’ associations to network with other food manufacturers and distributors.
Trade Shows. The Company plans to attend trade shows and exhibitions related to the food manufacturing industry, such as SIAL, PLMA Amsterdam, Thaifex, Fancy Food, CIBUS, ISM and ANUGA among others. Through attendance at conventions and trade shows, management remains knowledgeable and informed about advancements, trends and issues of concern in the market.
Direct Sales. The Company plans to employ a dedicated sales team to enact precise sales and promotional efforts.
Social Media and Food Blogging. The Company will manage its brand on social media sites, such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. Twitter has proven an effective platform to conduct customer satisfaction surveys as well as solicit customer feedback on food products.
The rise in popularity of the food blogging community has given consumers a massive platform on which to share their opinion and make their voices heard. This has led to a rise in consumer concerns about food, with increasing emphasis being placed on healthy eating and organic produce. The Company will use food blogging websites to promote its products and highlight benefits that appeal to a new generation of socially-aware consumers.
Website. A well-optimized website has been constructed, with proper site structure, page layout, and clear and easy navigation, along with targeted keywords embedded throughout the site to ensure prominent search engine placement and saturation. The Company’s website www.360worldsnacks.com is an important marketing asset.
Product Activations
The Company will set up blind taste test at neutral locations, in stores, malls and snack shops to let consumers sample products and to determine consumer preferences, and most importantly, find out the basis for those preferences. Is it the taste, the packaging, or Company image? This will also serve as an opportunity for the Company to highlight its products directly to the consumer.

The Market
According to the market research firm IBISWorld, the Snack Food Production Industry has seen an average annual growth rate of 3.1% over the last five years, with industry revenue approximately $41.6 billion in 2018. In 2018, imports are 2.3% of domestic demand for snacks. The industry is projected to see an average annual growth rate of 4% over the next five years, placing industry revenue at approximately $50.6 billion in 2023.
The Company believes that these trends bode well it and similar companies as the appetite for exotic and ethnic flavors show a long-term potential. The Company is in a position to capitalize on such current market opportunities by utilizing its current distribution network and a pull sales strategy, with direct input from the buyer chains. The Company has been able to maintain strong profit margins because with its continual work with the buyers, it brings products to the market that the buyers are already seeking. This pull sales strategy leads to a good success rate in end consumer adoption, which leads to lower expenses and higher than average profit margins.
Competition
The snack food industry in the United States is very competitive, particularly in the savory and salty snack segment. In the United States, a study conducted by the Packaging Strategies reported that snacks account for 51% of all food sales, and 92% of adults in the US have snacked within the last 24 hours.
The Company has observed an increased demand for “healthy” snacks. In the United States, companies are finding success in the “snackable” fruit and vegetable category, such as grapes or baby carrots..
A challenge facing entrants is snack and gourmet food market is the dominance of leading snack food producers, particularly the industry leader PepsiCo. Large producers may experience a high degree of brand and consumer loyalty and typically possess sufficient capital to invest in extensive advertising and promotions to obtain a greater market share. Furthermore, companies such as PepsiCo often benefit from higher profit margins when compared with small- to medium-sized operators, enabling them to lower their product prices and to engage in price-based competition with competitors. Multinational producers may also experience lower per-unit costs due to economies of scale and scope.
Leading Snack and Gourmet Food Industry Companies
In addition to its already huge product base, PepsiCo announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire Bare Foods Co., maker of baked fruit and vegetable snacks directed to the healthy eating snack food segment. Bare Snacks, which began by selling packaged baked apple chips, has expanded to banana and coconut snacks, as well as into vegetable chips, which are baked, rather than fried. The brand’s products are Non-GMO verified and are sold online and in natural and conventional retail channels across the country.
Snyder’s-Lance Inc. was created with the merger of Snyder’s of Hanover and Lance and is a leading national snack food manufacturer Snyder’s-Lance is a major producer in the snack food industry with its Diamond Foods Inc. brand..
Hearthside Foods, which is owned by Post Holdings, is based in Downers Grove, Illinois and produces organic and natural cereal, granola, and snacks such as bars and cookies. In fact, they describe themselves as America’s largest producer of grain-based bars.
Van’s Natural Foods is based in Peoria, Illinois and produces gluten-free a diverse line of natural breakfast foods and grain-based
| - 12 - |
The Company anticipates that it will primarily target teens and adults up to age 65. The primary target market is snackers that are between 18 and 34 years old which tend to eat more snacks than other age groups. The trend of snacks between meals is especially strong with millennial and younger Americans. A quarter of American millennials, age 23 to 40, report eating four or more times a day, compared to just 10% of Gen X and 9% of Baby Boomers. The Company believes that the senior age bracket (over 65) is not a strong snack market.
The Company intends to direct its marketing efforts through the mediums described above including networking, trade shows, direct sales and social media. The Company intends to try to continue to locate new and unique products to present to buyers, as well as to expand its group of regular buyers. The Company also intends to expand its vending segment to increase the number of vendor operators and thereby the number of machines offering the Company’s products.
The Company intends to strive to meet the following goals as it expands and grows:
Become a strong presence in the food and snacks industry;
Continue with a strong product distribution model;
Remain innovative in product offerings;
Remain attuned to the marketplace and integrate products into the business mix that meet the needs of the targeted market;
Enhance customer relationship and loyalty;
The Company believes that the keys to its successful operations are:
Produce brands that consumers consider to be of superior quality;
Ability to adapt to change in consumer preferences;
Employ economies of scale and scope by producing products on a large scale;
Develop and emphasis product differentiation from other similar market products;
Continue effective quality control.

Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act
In April, 2012, the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”) was enacted into law. The JOBS Act provides, among other things: Exemptions for emerging growth companies from certain financial disclosure and governance requirements for up to five years and provides a new form of financing to small companies; Amendments to certain provisions of the federal securities laws to simplify the sale of securities and increase the threshold number of record holders required to trigger the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; Relaxation of the general solicitation and general advertising prohibition for Rule 506 offerings; Adoption of a new exemption for public offerings of securities in amounts not exceeding $50 million; and Exemption from registration by a non-reporting company offers and sales of securities of up to $1,000,000 that comply with rules to be adopted by the SEC pursuant to Section 4(6) of the Securities Act and such sales are exempt from state law registration, documentation or offering requirements. In general, under the JOBS Act a company is an emerging growth company if its initial public offering (“IPO”) of common equity securities was effected after December 8, 2011 and the company had less than $1 billion of total annual gross revenues during its last completed fiscal year. A company will no longer qualify as an emerging growth company after the earliest of
| - 14 - |
(I) the completion of the fiscal year in which the company has total annual gross revenues of $1 billion or more,
(ii) the completion of the fiscal year of the fifth anniversary of the company’s IPO;
(iii) the company’s issuance of more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt in the prior three-year period; or
(iv) the company becoming a “larger accelerated filer” as defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
The Company meets the definition of an emerging growth company will be affected by some of the changes provided in the JOBS Act and certain of the new exemptions. The JOBS Act provides additional new guidelines and exemptions for non-reporting companies and for non-public offerings. Those exemptions that impact the Company are discussed below. Financial Disclosure . The financial disclosure in a registration statement filed by an emerging growth company pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 will differ from registration statements filed by other companies as follows:
(I) audited financial statements required for only two fiscal years;
(ii) selected financial data required for only the fiscal years that were audited;
(iii) executive compensation only needs to be presented in the limited format now required for smaller reporting companies. (A smaller reporting company is one with a public float of less than $75 million as of the last day of its most recently completed second fiscal quarter)
However, the requirements for financial disclosure provided by Regulation S-K promulgated by the Rules and Regulations of the SEC already provide certain of these exemptions for smaller reporting companies. The Company is a smaller reporting company.
Currently a smaller reporting company is not required to file as part of its registration statement selected financial data and only needs audited financial statements for its two most current fiscal years and no tabular disclosure of contractual obligations.
The JOBS Act also exempts the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm from complying with any rules adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) after the date of the JOBS Act’s enactment, except as otherwise required by SEC rule.
The JOBS Act also exempts an emerging growth company from any requirement adopted by the PCAOB for mandatory rotation of the Company’s accounting firm or for a supplemental auditor report about the audit.
| - 15 - |
Internal Control Attestation . The JOBS Act also provides an exemption from the requirement of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm to file a report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, although management of the Company is still required to file its report on the adequacy of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Section 102(a) of the JOBS Act goes on to exempt emerging growth companies from the requirements in 1934 Act § 14A(e) for companies with a class of securities registered under the 1934 Act to hold shareholder votes for executive compensation and golden parachutes.
Other Items of the JOBS Act . The JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can communicate with potential investors that are qualified institutional buyers or institutions that are accredited to determine interest in a contemplated offering either prior to or after the date of filing the respective registration statement. The Act also permits research reports by a broker or dealer about an emerging growth company regardless if such report provides sufficient information for an investment decision. In addition the JOBS Act precludes the SEC and FINRA from adopting certain restrictive rules or regulations regarding brokers, dealers and potential investors, communications with management and distribution of a research reports on the emerging growth company IPO.
Section 106 of the JOBS Act permits emerging growth companies to submit 1933 Act registration statements on a confidential basis provided that the registration statement and all amendments are publicly filed at least 21 days before the issuer conducts any road show. This is intended to allow the emerging growth company to explore the IPO option without disclosing to the market the fact that it is seeking to go public or disclosing the information contained in its registration statement until the company is ready to conduct a road show.
Election to Opt Out of Transition Period . Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a 1933 Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the 1934 Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standard.
| - 16 - |
The JOBS Act provides a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of the transition period.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company (formerly Dense Forest Acquisition Corporation) was incorporated in the State of Delaware in December 2017. The purpose of the Company was to act as a vehicle to effect a business combination with a private company to facilitate the private company becoming a public report company.

The Company filed Current Reports on Form 8-K to disclose the change of control and the change of name.
On November 26, 2018, GDHI, a private New York became a subsidiary of the Company through the exchange of 200 shares of the Company’s common stock for all the outstanding shares of GDHI.
Mr. Paul Adler, the President of the Company, entered into an agreement with Tiber Creek Corporation, of which the president and controlling stockholder was the former president of the Company prior to the change in control. Tiber Creek Corporation assisted companies to become public reporting companies and for the preparation and filing of registration statements pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, and to the introduction to brokers and market makers.
Prior to the acquisition of GDHI as a subsidiary, the Company had no operations other than the administrative operations involved with the change in control.

Directors
The Company is authorized to have at least one director but no more than five. Each of the Company’s directors serves for a term of one year or until a successor is elected and qualified.
Director Independence
The Board of Directors has determined that it does not have any independent directors as that term is defined by NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5605(a)(2). In assessing the independence of the directors, the Board considers any transactions, relationships and arrangements between our Company and our independent directors or their affiliated companies. This review is based primarily on responses of the directors to questions in a director and officer questionnaire regarding employment, business, familial, compensation and other relationships with our Company or our management.
Committees of the Board
The Company currently does not have nominating, compensation or audit committees or committees performing similar functions nor does the Company have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. The current Directors believe that it is not necessary to have such committees, at this time, because they can adequately perform the functions of such committees.
The Company does not have any defined policy or procedural requirements for shareholders to submit recommendations or nominations for Directors. The Directors believes that, given the stage of the Company’s development, a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance until our business operations develop to a more advanced level. The Company does not currently have any specific or minimum criteria for the election of nominees to the Board of Directors and does not have any specific process or procedure for evaluating such nominees. The Board of Directors will assess all candidates, whether submitted by management or shareholders, and make recommendations for election or appointment.
A shareholder who wishes to communicate with the Board of Directors may do so by directing a written request addressed to our President and Director, at the address appearing on the first page of this filing.

The Company’s operating subsidiary, GDHI, has a separate board of directors from the Company which consists of:
| Name | Age | Position | ||
| Paul Adler | 42 | President, Secretary, CFO, Director |
Risk Oversight
Effective risk oversight is an important priority of the Company. Because risks are considered in virtually every business decision, the Directors’ approach to risk oversight includes understanding the critical risks in the Company’s business and strategy, evaluating the Company’s risk management processes, allocating responsibilities for risk oversight among the full Board of Directors, and fostering an appropriate culture of integrity and compliance with legal responsibilities.
Corporate Governance
The Company promotes accountability for adherence to honest and ethical conduct; endeavors to provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with the SEC and in other public communications made by the Company; and strives to be compliant with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations. The Company has not formally adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics that governs the Company’s employees, officers and Directors as the Company is not required to do so.
In lieu of an Audit Committee, the Company’s directors are responsible for reviewing and making recommendations concerning the selection of outside auditors, reviewing the scope, results and effectiveness of the annual audit of the Company’s financial statements and other services provided by the Company’s independent public accountants. The Company’s Directors review the Company’s internal accounting controls, practices and policies.
Code of Ethics
The Company has not adopted a code of ethics. The Company anticipates that it will adopt a code of ethics when either the number of directors or the number of employees increases.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act may require executive officers and Directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of our common stock to file reports of ownership and change in ownership with the SEC and the exchange on which the common stock is listed for trading. Executive officers, Directors and more than five percent (5%) stockholders are required by regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports filed. Based solely on review of copies of the Section 16(a) reports filed for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2017, the Company believes that during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, such filings were made
In addition to the management team, the Company has developed an advisory team that supports the Company and provides guidance and credibility and contacts as needed. The advisors do not receive compensation for their assistance to the Company. The advisors include:

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
The officers and directors are subject to the restriction that all opportunities contemplated by the business plan which come to their attention, either in the performance of their duties or in any other manner, will be considered opportunities of, and be made available to the Company.

The following statements relating to the capital stock set forth certain material terms of the securities of the Company; however, reference is made to the more detailed provisions of, and such statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to, the certificate of incorporation and the by-laws, copies of which have been filed as exhibits to this registration statement.
| - 22 - |
Capitalization
The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001, of which 12,880 ,200 shares were outstanding as of the date of the registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part. The Company is also authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001, of which none are designated or outstanding.
The following statements relating to the capital stock set forth the material terms of the securities of the Company, however, reference is made to the more detailed provisions of, and such statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to, the certificate of incorporation and the by-laws, copies of which have been filed as exhibits in public offerings made by the Company and are available for review on the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov.
Common Stock
The Company is registering up to 2,500,000 shares of its common stock for sale to the public at a price of $2.00 per share.
Holders of shares of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders. Holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights.
Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding shares of preferred stock, the holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the board of directors in its discretion from funds legally available therefor.
Holders of common stock have no preemptive rights to purchase the Company’s common stock. There are no conversion or redemption rights or sinking fund provisions with respect to the common stock. The Company may issue additional shares of common stock which could dilute its current shareholder’s share value.
Preferred Stock
Shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series as may be determined by the board of directors. The voting powers and preferences, the relative rights of each series, and the qualifications, limitations, and restrictions on such preferred stock shall be established by the board of directors, except that no holder of preferred stock shall have preemptive rights.
Any shares of preferred stock so issued would typically have priority over the common stock with respect to dividend or liquidation rights. Any future issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company without further action by the stockholders and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of common stock.
At present, the Company has no plans to issue any preferred stock or adopt any series, preferences or other classification of preferred stock. The issuance of shares of preferred stock, or the issuance of rights to purchase such shares, could be used to discourage an unsolicited acquisition proposal. For instance, the issuance of a series of preferred stock might impede a business combination by including class voting rights that would enable the holder to block such a transaction, or facilitate a business combination by including voting rights that would provide a required percentage vote of the stockholders. In addition, under certain circumstances, the issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of the common stock.
Although the Company’s board of directors is required to make any determination to issue such preferred stock based on its judgment as to the best interests of the stockholders of the Company, the board of directors could act in a manner that would discourage an acquisition attempt or other transaction that some, or a majority, of the stockholders might believe to be in their best interests or in which stockholders might receive a premium for their stock over the then market price of such stock. The board of directors does not at present intend to seek stockholder approval prior to any issuance of currently authorized stock, unless otherwise required by law or otherwise.
Admission to Quotation on the OTC QX or QB
If the Company meets the qualifications, it intends to apply for quotation of its securities on the OTC QX or QB. The OTC Bulletin Board differs from national and regional stock exchanges in that it (1) is not situated in a single location but operates through communication of bids, offers and confirmations between broker-dealers and (2) securities admitted to quotation are offered by one or more broker-dealers rather than the “specialist” common to stock exchanges. To qualify for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board, an equity security must have one registered broker-dealer, known as the market maker, willing to list bid or sale quotations and to sponsor the company listing. In addition, the Company must make available adequate current public information as required by applicable rules and regulations.
| - 23 - |
In certain cases the Company may elect to have its securities initially quoted in the Pink Sheets published by Pink OTC Markets Inc. In general there is greater liquidity for traded securities on the OTC Bulletin Board, and less through quotation on the Pink Sheets. It is not possible to predict where, if at all, the securities of the Company will be traded following the effectiveness of this registration statement.
Transfer Agent
The Company has not yet engaged a transfer agent for the common stock of the Company.
Penny Stock Regulation
Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 per share other than securities registered on national securities exchanges or listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities are provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouse). For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information on the limited market in penny stocks. Because of these penny stock rules, broker-dealers may be restricted in their ability to sell the Company’s common stock. The foregoing required penny stock restrictions will not apply to the Company’s common stock if such stock reaches and maintains a market price of $5.00 per share or greater.
Dividends
The Company has not paid any dividends to date. The Company intends to employ all available funds for the growth and development of its business, and accordingly, does not intend to declare or pay any dividends in the foreseeable future.
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
As of the date of this prospectus, there are 12,880 ,200 shares of common stock outstanding of which 12,500,200 shares are beneficially owned by the Company’s sole officer and director. There will be 15, 380 ,200 shares outstanding if the maximum number of Shares offered herein is sold.
The shares of common stock held by current shareholders are considered “restricted securities” subject to the limitations of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. In general, securities may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 after being fully-paid and held for more than 12 months. While affiliates of the Company are subject to certain limits in the amount of restricted securities they can sell under Rule 144, there are no such limitations on sales by persons who are not affiliates of the Company. In the event non-affiliated holders elect to sell such shares in the public market, there is likely to be a negative effect on the market price of the Company’s securities.
Lee W. Cassidy, Esq., Lee Cassidy Law, Newport Beach, California,, has given its opinion as attorneys-at-law regarding the validity of the issuance of the Shares offered by the Company.

Interest of Counsel
Lee Cassidy Law, counsel for the Company, has given an opinion upon the validity of the securities being registered for sale herein. Lee Cassidy is the spouse of a shareholder of the Company who was a director and an officer of the Company prior to its change in control.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation include an indemnification provision that provides that the Company shall indemnify directors against monetary damages to the Company or any of its shareholders by reason of a breach of the director’s fiduciary except (I) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Company or its shareholders or (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct of (iii) for unlawful payment of dividend or unlawful stock purchase or redemption or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
The Bylaws of the Company provide that the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as amended from time to time, indemnify all directors of the Company, as well as any officers or employees of the Company to whom the Company has agreed to grant indemnification. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DCL”) empowers a corporation to indemnify its directors and officers and to purchase insurance with respect to liability arising out of their capacity or status as directors and officers provided that this provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (I) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) arising under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. The Delaware General Corporation Law provides further that the indemnification permitted thereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the directors and officers may be entitled under the corporation’s by-laws, any agreement, vote of shareholders or otherwise.
The effect of the foregoing is to require the Company to indemnify the officers and directors of the Company for any claim arising against such persons in their official capacities if such person acted in good faith and in a manner that he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
The Certificate of Incorporation does not specifically indemnify the officers or directors or controlling persons against liability under the Securities Act.
The Securities and Exchange Commission’s position on indemnification of officers, directors and control persons under the Securities Act by the Company is as follows:
INSOFAR AS INDEMNIFICATION FOR LIABILITIES ARISING UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 MAY BE PERMITTED TO DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND CONTROLLING PERSONS OF THE SMALL BUSINESS ISSUER PURSUANT TO THE RULES OF THE COMMISSION, OR OTHERWISE, THE SMALL BUSINESS ISSUER HAS BEEN ADVISED THAT IN THE OPINION OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION SUCH INDEMNIFICATION IS AGAINST PUBLIC POLICY AS EXPRESSED IN THE ACT AND IS, THEREFORE, UNENFORCEABLE.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the shareholders and the board of directors of Global Diversified Marketing Group , Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Global Diversified Marketing Group , Inc. as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 , the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “ financial statements ”) . In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 , and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“ PCAOB ”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company’s significant operating losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2018
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Business
Global Diversified Marketing Group, Inc. (the “Company”), formerly known as Dense Forest Acquisition Corporation, was incorporated in Delaware on December 1, 2017 and changed its name on June 13, 2018 as part of a change in control. As part of the change in control, its then officers and directors resigned and contributed back to the Company 19,500,000 shares of the 20,000,000 outstanding shares of its common stock, and appointed new officers and directors. On June 14, 2018 new management of the Company issued 12.500,000 shares of its common stock to Paul Adler, the then president of the Company.
On November 26, 2018 the Company effected the acquisition of Global Diversified Holdings, Inc. (“GDHI”), a private New York company owned by the Company’s president, with the issuance of 200 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of GDHI. GDHI became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and its activity for the years 2018 and 2017 are reflected in these financial statements along with the expenses of the Company.
Prior to the acquisition of GDHI, the Company had no business and no operations. Pursuant to the acquisition, the Company acquired the operations and business plan of GDHI, which imports and sells snack food products. For accounting purposes, GDHI is considered to be the acquirer, and the equity is presented as if the business combination had occurred on January 1, 2017
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars. The Company has adopted a December 31 year end.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable from customers, accounts payable, and loans payable. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Stock-Based Compensation
As of December 31, 2018, the Company has not issued any share-based payments to its employees. Under the modified prospective method the Company uses, stock compensation expense includes compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted, based on the grant-date estimated fair value.

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with the original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had $21,515 and $0 of cash.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are generated from sales of snack food products to retail outlets throughout the United States. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based on customer payment and current credit worthiness, as determined by review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors credit limits for its customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based on its historical experience and any specific customer issues that have been identified. An allowance for doubtful; accounts is provided against accounts receivable for amounts management believes may be uncollectible. The Company historically has not had issues collecting on its accounts receivable from its customers. The Company factors certain of its receivables to improve its cash flow.
Bad debt expense for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 was $0; the allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2018 and 2017 was $0.
Inventory
Inventory consists of snack food products and packaging supplies, and are stated at the lower of cost or market.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets. Maintenance, repairs, and renewals that do not materially add to the value of the equipment nor appreciably prolong its useful life are charged to expense as incurred.
Revenue Recognition
Beginning January 1, 2018, the Company implemented ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Although the new revenue standard is expected to have an immaterial impact, if any, on our ongoing net income, we did implement changes to our processes related to revenue recognition and the control activities within them. These included the development of new policies based on the five-step model provided in the new revenue standard, ongoing contract review requirements, and gathering of information provided for disclosures.
The Company recognizes revenue from product sales or services rendered when control of the promised goods are transferred to our clients in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. To achieve this core principle we apply the following five steps: identify the contract with the client, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract and recognize revenues when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
Advertising and Marketing Costs
The Company’s policy regarding advertising and marketing is to record the expense when incurred. The Company incurred advertising and marketing expenses of $3,424 and $2,015 during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

DECEMBER 31, 2018
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, with the consent of its stockholder, had elected to be taxed as an S Corporation under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Instead of paying federal corporate income taxes, the stockholder(s) of an S Corporation are taxed individually on their proportionate share of the Company’s taxable income. Therefore, prior to the business combination discussed above, the Company had made no provision for income taxes. Effective with the business combination, the wholly owned subsidiary became a C-corporation, and the loss incurred for the period as a C-corporation approximated $270,000. See Note 7.
The Company’s income tax returns are open for examination for up to the past three years under the statute of limitations. There are no tax returns currently under examination.
Comprehensive Income
The Company has which established standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. When applicable, the Company would disclose this information on its Statement of Stockholders’ Equity. Comprehensive income comprises equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The Company has not had any significant transactions that are required to be reported in other comprehensive income.
Basic Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic income (loss) per share has been calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.
Going Concern
As of December 31, 2018, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $21,515 and an accumulated deficit of $23,734. Additionally, the Company had accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $357,909. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financials have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If the Company is in fact unable to continue as a going concern, the shareholders may lose some or all of their investment in the Company.
NOTE 2 – STOCK REDEMPTION PAYABLE
On September 7, 2016, the Company entered into a Stock Redemption and Purchase Agreement with a 50% shareholder to purchase back his 100 common shares. The shares had been purchased for $70,000 and the Company agreed to buy them back for $90,000. Payments required under the Agreement are $3,750 per month starting on January 2, 2017. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company owed $0 and $45,000, respectively. See Note 3.
