FORT WALTON BEACH, FL, May 12, 2012

As summer approaches, consumers throughout the Southeast will be searching for ways to keep cool while the temperatures rise. Providing a refreshing, healthful indulgence, G.S. Gelato, based in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, has begun a partnership with Costco Wholesalers to offer frozen yogurt in a two-flavor bulk pack. Yogurtiamo, the company's branded line of frozen yogurt, is now available in Costco Wholesale buildings throughout the Southeast.

The bulk packaging contains two 34-ounce containers of California Tart Yogurt, each with different ripple inclusions; one with a Mixed Berry Swirl and one with a Blood Orange Swirl. The twin pack will retail for around $9.79.

"Partnering with Costco to provide our Yogurtiamo line of frozen yogurt provides consumers with a healthy snacking option that won't break the calorie bank this summer," said Cynthia Harrison, Director of Product Development for the company. "Working with Costco has been a company goal, one we are proud to have accomplished."

The new product is available in buildings through the Costco Southeast region, including North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama and Florida. The partnership with Costco Southeast will run through the summer, and may be tested in other Costco Wholesale regions in the future.
