 PART I

ITEM 1.  Description of Business
 
Our History
 
We were initially formed in June 1979 as Alpha Solarco Inc., a Colorado corporation. From June 1979 through February 2003, we were either inactive or involved in discontinued business ventures. We changed our name to Fiber Application Systems Technology, Ltd in February 2003. In January 2004, we changed our state of incorporation by merging into Innovative Food Holdings, Inc. (IVFH), a Florida corporation formed for that purpose. As a result of the merger we changed our name to that of Innovative Food Holdings, Inc. In January 2004 we also acquired Food Innovations, Inc., a Delaware corporation, for 25,000,000 shares (post-reverse split) of our common stock.
 
Our Operations
 
Our business is currently conducted by our subsidiary, Food Innovations, Inc. (“FII”), which was incorporated in the state of Delaware on January 9, 2002. Since its incorporation our subsidiary has been in the business of providing premium restaurants with the freshest origin-specific perishables and specialty products shipped directly from our network of vendors within 24 – 72  hours. Our customers include restaurants, hotels, country clubs, national chain accounts, casinos, and catering houses.  In our business model, we take orders from our customers and then forward the orders to our various suppliers for fulfillment.  In order to preserve freshness, we do not warehouse or store our products, thereby significantly reducing our overhead.  Rather, we carefully select our suppliers based upon, among other factors, their reliability and access to overnight courier services.

Our Products
 
We distribute over 3,000 perishable and specialty food products, including origin-specific seafood, domestic and imported meats, exotic game and poultry, artisanal cheeses, caviar, wild and cultivated mushrooms, micro-greens, heirloom and baby produce, organic farmed and manufactured food products, estate-bottled olive oils and aged vinegars. We are constantly adding other products that food distributors cannot effectively warehouse, including organic products and specialty grocery items. We offer our customers access to the best food products available nationwide, quickly and cost-effectively. Some of our best-selling items include:
 
 
● 
 Seafood - Alaskan wild king salmon, Hawaiian sashimi-grade ahi tuna, Gulf of Mexico day-boat snapper, Chesapeake Bay soft shell crabs, New England live lobsters, Japanese hamachi
 
 
● 
 Meat & Game - Prime rib of American kurobuta pork, dry-aged buffalo tenderloin, domestic lamb, Cervena venison, elk tenderloin
 
 
● 
 Produce - White asparagus, baby carrot tri-color mix, Oregon wild ramps, heirloom tomatoes
 
 
● 
 Poultry - Grade A foie gras, Hudson Valley quail, free range and organic chicken, airline breast of pheasant
 
 
● 
 Specialty - Truffle oils, fennel pollen, prosciutto di Parma, wild boar sausage
 
 
● 
 Mushrooms - Fresh morels, Trumpet Royale, porcini powder, wild golden chanterelles
 
 
● 
 Cheese - Maytag blue, buffalo mozzarella, Spanish manchego, Italian gorgonzola dolce
 
In 2007 seafood accounted for 14% of sales, meat and game accounted for 22% of sales, specialty items accounted for 38% of sales, produce accounted for 6% of sales, cheese accounted for 10% of sales, chocolate accounted for 5% of sales, and poultry accounted for 5% of sales.
 
Customer Service and Logistics
 
Our “live” chef-driven customer service department is available by telephone every weekday, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Florida time. The team is made up of four chefs who are full-time employees of the Company, and who are experienced in all aspects of perishable and specialty products. By employing chefs to handle customer service, we are able to provide our customers with extensive information about our products, including:
 
 Flavor profile and eating qualities
 
 Recipe and usage ideas
 
 Origin, seasonality, and availability
 
 Cross utilization ideas and complementary uses of products
 
Our logistics team tracks every package to ensure timely delivery of products to our customers. The logistics manager receives tracking information on all products ordered, and packages are monitored from origin to delivery. In the event that delivery service is interrupted, our logistics department begins the process of expediting the package to its destination. The customer is then contacted before the expected delivery commitment time allowing the customer ample time to make arrangements for product replacement or menu changes. Our logistics manager works directly with our vendors to ensure our strict packaging requirements are in place at all times.
 
Chef Advisory Board
 
In addition to our in-house chefs, we rely upon the assistance of our Chef Advisory Board. The Chief Advisory Board provides the Company with “on the ground” industry information and information on the latest food trends.  The Chief Advisory Board was not compensated in 2006.
 
Chef Joseph Amendola
Chef Joe Amendola was the American Culinary Federation Chef of the Year for 2002. With over sixty years of experience, Chef Amendola is world renowned as more than a culinary professional. He is the author of  The Bakers Manual,  Understanding Baking,  Ice Carving Made Easy,  Professional Baking and Practical Cooking, and  Baking for Schools and Institutions, all of which are used in culinary institutes around the world. For over forty years he served as senior vice president, acting president, director of development, dean of students, and baking instructor at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY. During that period more than 25,000 persons were graduated from that chef training institute. He has served the Culinary Institute of America as ambassador since 1989.
 
Chef Don Pintabona
Chef Pintabona graduated from the Culinary Institute of America in 1982. He worked under such chefs as Nishitani in Osaka, Japan; Georges Blanc in Vonnes, France; and Charles Palmer in New York. He sought out the most unusual local foodstuffs and then developed his own style of contemporary American cuisine. Last year, Chef Pintabona published his own book entitled  The Tribeca Grill Cookbook: Celebrating Ten Years of Taste . He currently teaches a special course at the Cornell School of Hotel Management. He has been a frequent guest Chef on ABC's “Good Morning America,” he also has been on the Food Network's “Cooking Live” television shows and has been featured in   Bon Appéti  ,   Gourmet,   GQ,   Nation's Restaurant News, and the   New York Times .
 
Chef Bob Ambrose
Chef Ambrose is a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America and has been employed in the hospitality industry for over 20 years. During his career Chef Ambrose received invitations to cook at many James Beard functions, including The World Gourmet Summit in Singapore. Following his career in hospitality, Chef Ambrose served as a Sales Manager for LaBelle Farms, one of our preferred vendors. He now owns Bella Bella Gourmet Foods.

Relationship with U.S. Foodservice
 
In 2003, Next Day Gourmet, L.P., a subsidiary of USF, a $20 Billion broadline distributor then owned by Dutch grocer Royal Ahold, contracted FII to handle the distribution of over 3,000 perishable and specialty products. Under the current terms of the contract FII is the exclusive supplier of overnight delivered, perishable sea foods, fresh produce, and other exotic fresh foods. Such products are difficult for broadline food distributors to manage profitably and keep in warehouse stock due to their perishable nature and high-end limited customer base. Through USF’s sales associates, FII’s products are available to USF accounts nationwide, ensuring superior freshness and extended shelf life to their customers. While the current contract with USF expires in September 11, 2008, the extension negotiations are currently underway. We expect to reach an agreement with USF but we can give no assurances that we will do so. During the years ended December 31, 2007, and 2006,  Next Day Gourmet L.P. accounted for 95%, and  97% of  total sales respectively.   Other than our business arrangements with USF, we are not affiliated with either USF or Next Day Gourmet, L.P.  
 
Growth Strategy
 
Restaurant food sales continue to grow, both in total dollars spent (from $295 billion in 1995 to over $558 billion projected for 2008) and in share of the food dollar spent in the United States (from 25% in 1955 to 48% projected for 2008), according to the National Restaurant Association website (www.restaurant.org).
 
For our continued growth within the food industry we rely heavily on the availability to our customers of our chefs' culinary skills and sales available through our relationship with USF.
 
In addition to attempting to grow our current business, we are also looking to grow laterally in the food industry generally and are looking into the possibility of acquiring a gourmet food manufacturer or gourmet distributor. We have no specific plans at this point, nor do we know how we would finance any such acquisition. We anticipate that, given our current cash flow situation, any acquisition would involve the issuance of additional shares of our common stock. No acquisition will be consummated without thorough due diligence. No assurance can be given that we will be able to identify and successfully conclude negotiations with any potential target.
 
Competition
 
While we face intense competition in the marketing of our products and services, it is our belief that there is no other single company in the United States that offers such a broad range of customer service oriented quality chef driven perishables for delivery in 24 to 72 hours. Our primary competition is from local meat and seafood purveyors that supply a limited local market and have a limited range of products. However, many of our competitors are well established, have reputations for success in the development and marketing of these types of products and services and have significantly greater financial, marketing, distribution, personnel and other resources. These financial and other capabilities permit such companies to implement extensive advertising and promotional campaigns, both generally and in response to efforts by additional competitors such as us, to enter into new markets and introduce new products and services.
 
Insurance
 
We maintain a general liability insurance policy with a per occurrence limit of $1,000,000 and aggregate policy covering $2,000,000 of liability. In addition, we have non-owned automobile personal injury coverage with a limit of $1,000,000. Such insurance may not be sufficient to cover all potential claims against us and additional insurance may not be available in the future at reasonable costs.
 
Government Regulation
 
Various federal and state laws currently exist, and more are sure to be adopted, regulating the delivery of fresh food products. However, our business plan does not require us to deliver fresh food products directly, as third-party vendors ship the products directly to our customers. We require all third-party vendors to maintain $2,000,000 liability insurance coverage and compliance with Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP), an FDA- and USDA-mandated food safety program. Any changes in the government regulation of delivering of fresh food products that hinders our current ability and/or cost to deliver fresh products, could adversely impact our net revenues and gross margins and, therefore, our profitability and cash flows could also be adversely affected.

Risk Factors
 
Risks Relating to Our Business:
 
We Have a History Of Losses Which May Continue, Requiring Us To Seek Additional Sources of Capital Which May Not Be Available, Requiring Us To Curtail Or Cease Operations.
 
We suffered a net loss of $661,799 for the year ended December 31, 2007. We cannot assure you that we can achieve or sustain profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. If revenues grow more slowly than we anticipate, or if operating expenses exceed our expectations or cannot be adjusted accordingly, we will  incur losses. We will  also incur losses if the fair value of warrants, options, etc changes unfavorably. We will incur operating  losses until we are able to establish significant sales. Our possible success is dependent upon the successful development and marketing of our services and products, as to which we can give no assurance. Any future success that we might enjoy will depend upon many factors, including factors out of our control or which cannot be predicted at this time. These factors may include changes in or increased levels of competition, including the entry of additional competitors and increased success by existing competitors, changes in general economic conditions, increases in operating costs, including costs of supplies, personnel, marketing and promotions, reduced margins caused by competitive pressures and other factors. These conditions may have a materially adverse effect upon us or may force us to reduce or curtail operations. In addition, we will require additional funds to sustain and expand our sales and marketing activities, particularly if a well-financed competitor emerges. We anticipate that we will require up to approximately $250,000 in additional funds with no repayment of existing debt of 2008 maturities and maturities in default to fund our continued operations for the next twelve months, depending on revenue from our operations. We can give no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Our inability to obtain sufficient funds from our operations or external sources would require us to curtail or cease operations.
 
If We Are Unable to Obtain Additional Funding Our Business Operations Will be Harmed and If We Do Obtain Additional Financing Our Then Existing Shareholders May Suffer Substantial Dilution.
 
Additional capital will be required to effectively support our operations and to otherwise implement our overall business strategy. However, we can give no assurance that financing will be available when needed on terms that are acceptable to us. Our inability to obtain additional capital will restrict our ability to grow and may reduce our ability to continue to conduct business operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we will likely be required to curtail our marketing and development plans and possibly cease our operations. Any additional equity financing (or equity related financing such as convertible debt financing) may involve substantial dilution to our then existing shareholders.
 
Our Independent Auditors Have Expressed Substantial Doubt About Our Ability to Continue As a Going Concern, and We Concur With This Assessment
 
In their report dated July 17, 2008, our independent auditors stated that our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 were prepared assuming that we would continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is an issue raised as a result of our significant losses from operations since inception and our working capital deficiency. We continue to experience net operating losses. Our ability to continue as a going concern is subject to our ability to generate a profit and/or obtain necessary funding from outside sources, including obtaining additional funding from the sale of our securities, increasing sales or obtaining loans and grants from various financial institutions where possible. Our continued net operating losses increase the difficulty in our meeting such goals and we can give no assurance that such methods will prove successful.
 
We Have Historically Derived Substantially All of Our Revenue From One Client and if We Were to Lose Such Client We Will Be Unable to Generate New Sales to Offset Such Loss, We May Be Forced to Cease or Curtail Our Operations.
 
In 2003, Next Day Gourmet, L.P. initially contracted with our subsidiary to handle the distribution of over 3,000 perishable and specialty food products to USF’s customers. Our current contract with USF expires in September 2008. Our sales through USF’s sales force generated gross revenues for us of $6,519,721 in the year ended December 31, 2007, and $ 6,915,550  in the year ended December 31, 2006. Those amounts contributed 95% and 97%, respectively of our total sales in those periods. Our sales efforts are for the most part dependent upon the efforts of  the U.S. Foodservice, Inc. Although we have generated revenues from additional customers other than USF, if we do not renew our contract with USF in September 2008 or if the contract is terminated for any reason and we are unable to generate new sales or offset such loss, we may be forced to cease or curtail our operations. While we have begun discussions with USF to extend the agreement, we can give no assurance that we will be successful and if the agreement terminates in September it could adversely affect our sales in a material fashion to the extent that we may be forced to cease operations.

We May Be Unable to Manage Our Growth Which Could Result in Our Being Unable to Maintain Our Operations.
 
Our strategy for growth is focused on continued enhancements to our existing business model, offering a broader range of services and products and affiliating with additional vendors and through possible joint ventures. Pursuing this strategy presents a variety of challenges. We may not experience an increase in our services to our existing customers, and we may not be able to achieve the economies of scale, or provide the business, administrative and financial services, required to sustain profitability from servicing our existing and future customer base. Should we be successful in our expansion efforts, the expansion of our business would place further demands on our management, operational capacity and financial resources. To a significant extent, our future success will be dependent upon our ability to maintain adequate financial controls and reporting systems to manage a larger operation and to obtain additional capital upon favorable terms We can give no assurance that we will be able to successfully implement our planned expansion, finance its growth, or manage the resulting larger operations. In addition, we can give no assurance that our current systems, procedures or controls will be adequate to support any expansion of our operations. Our failure to manage our growth effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of our operations.
 
The Foodservice Industry is Very Competitive, Which May Result in Decreased Revenue for Us as Well as Increased Expenses Associated With Marketing Our Services and Products.
 
We compete against other providers of quality foods, some of which sell their services globally, and some of these providers have considerably greater resources and abilities than we have. These competitors may have greater marketing and sales capacity, established distribution networks, significant goodwill and global name recognition. Furthermore, it may become necessary for us to reduce our prices in response to competition. This could impact our ability to be profitable.
 
Our Success Depends on Our Acceptance by the Chef Community and if the Chef Community Does Not Accept Our Products Then Our Revenue Will be Severely Limited.
 
The chef community may not embrace our products. Acceptance of our services will depend on several factors, including: cost, product freshness, convenience, timeliness, strategic partnerships and reliability. Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We also cannot be sure that our business model will gain wide acceptance among chefs. If the market fails to continue to develop, or develops more slowly than we expect, our business, results of operations and financial condition will be adversely affected.
 
We Rely Upon Outside Vendors and Shippers for Our Specialty Food Products and Interruption in the Supply of Our Products May Negatively Impact Our Revenues.
 
Shortages in supplies of the food products we sell may impair our ability to provide our services. Our vendors are independent and we cannot guarantee their future ability to source the products that we sell. Many of our products are wild-caught, and we cannot guarantee their availability in the future. Unforeseen strikes and labor disputes may result in our inability to deliver our products in a timely manner. Since our customers rely on us to deliver their orders within 48 hours, delivery delays could significantly harm our business.
 
We Are and May Be Subject to Regulatory Compliance and Legal Uncertainties.
 
Changes in government regulation and supervision or proposed Department of Agriculture reforms could impair our sources of revenue and limit our ability to expand our business. In the event any future laws or regulations are enacted which apply to us, we may have to expend funds and/or alter our operations to insure compliance.
 
Health Concerns Could Affect Our Success.
 
We require our vendors to produce current certification that the vendor is H.A.C.C.P. compliant, and a current copy of their certificate of liability insurance. However, unforeseen health issues concerning food may adversely affect our sales and our ability to continue operating our business.
 
The Issuance of Shares Upon Conversion of  Convertible Notes and Exercise of Outstanding Warrants May Cause Immediate and Substantial Dilution to Our Existing Stockholders.
 
The issuance of shares upon conversion of convertible notes and exercise of warrants may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders since the note/warrant holders may ultimately convert or exercise and sell the full amount of shares issuable on conversion / exercise. Although, for the most part, such note/warrant holders may not convert their convertible notes and/or exercise their warrants if such conversion or exercise would cause them to own more than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock unless waived in writing by the investor with 60 day notice to the Company, this restriction does not prevent them from converting and/or exercising some of their holdings, selling off those shares, and then converting the rest of their holdings. In this way, they could sell more than this limit while never holding more than this limit. We anticipate that eventually, over time, the full amount of the convertible notes will be converted into shares of our common stock, in accordance with the terms of the secured convertible notes.
 
6

 
If We Are Required for any Reason to Repay Our Outstanding Convertible Notes or if We Elect to Make Monthly Payments in Cash as Opposed to Stock, We Would Be Required to Deplete Our Working Capital, If Available, or Raise Additional Funds.
 
We are required to repay our convertible notes commencing in August 2005 with respect to the convertible notes issued in connection with the February 2005 Securities Purchase Agreement and in February 2006 in connection with the August 2005 Securities Purchase at the rate of 1/18th of the outstanding principal on the convertible note on a monthly basis. We may make such monthly payment in either cash or shares of common stock that are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. If we are required to repay the secured convertible notes, we would be required to use our limited working capital and/or raise additional funds (which may be unavailable) which would have the effect of causing further dilution and lowering shareholder value.
 
We Are Currently In default Under Certain Convertible Notes Which Could Result in Legal Action Against Us, Which Could Require the Sale of Substantial Assets.
 
We are currently in default under certain of our outstanding convertible notes which could require the early repayment of the convertible notes, including a default interest rate of 15% on the outstanding principal balance of the notes if the default is acted upon by the note holders and not cured within the specified grace period. If we were unable to repay the notes when required, the note holders could commence legal action against us and foreclose on all of our assets to recover the amounts due. Any such action would require us to curtail or cease operations.
 
Risks Relating to Our Common Stock:
 
Our Common Stock is Subject to the "Penny Stock" Rules of the SEC and the Trading Market in Our Securities is Limited, Which Makes Transactions in Our Stock Cumbersome and May Reduce the Value of an Investment in Our Stock.
 
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share (post-reverse split) or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share (post-reverse split), subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:
 
 
● 
that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and
 
 ● 
the broker or dealer receives from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.
 
In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
 
 
● 
obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and
 
 ● 
make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
 
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:
 
 
● 
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and
 
● 
that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.
 
Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.
 
Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

ITEM 2. Description of Property
 
We lease approximately 2,800 square feet of space at 1923-1925 Trade Center Way, Naples, Florida, all of which is currently used for our principal executive offices and sales operations. The lease for these premises expires in September 2008 and is with a non-affiliated landlord. The aggregate base rent is $4,257 per month for the remainder of the term of the lease. We intend to negotiate an extension of that lease; however, if we are unable to do so, we expect that we will be able to  lease or acquire other similar space in close proximity to our existing space. We believe that appropriate space is and will be available if needed at acceptable prices

ITEM 3. Legal Proceedings
 
In September 2006 we commenced an action in New York Supreme Court, Nassau County, against Pasta Italiana, Inc. Robert Yandolino and Lloyd Braider to collect on outstanding promissory notes totaling $345,000 (plus interest and collection expenses) of which $65,000 were personally guaranteed by the two individual defendants.  The defendants have counterclaimed for an unspecified amount of damages due to our alleged breach of an agreement to purchase the corporate defendant. As of December 31, 2007 the action had barely commenced and its outcome is too speculative to predict.  However, we think it unlikely at this time that we will suffer a net material loss on our loan.

The quotations listed above reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not represent actual transactions. They have also been adjusted to reflect the effect of historical reverse splits. see spreadsheet
 
We were inactive for many years until the first quarter of 2003 when we absorbed a new business, received new management and underwent a significant reverse split.  Unfortunately, this new business venture was unsuccessful and has unwound clearing the way for our current business which we absorbed during the first quarter of 2004, along with new management and another significant reverse split of our common stock.  We believe that these activities contributed to the large fluctuations in the price of our stock during 2003 and 2004.
 
Security Holders
 
On December 31, 2007,  there were approximately 5,262  record holders of our common stock. In addition, we believe there are numerous beneficial owners of our common stock whose shares are held in "street name."
 
Dividends
 
We have not paid dividends during the three most recently completed fiscal years, and have no current plans to pay dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain all earnings, if any, for use in our business.
 
 Recent Sales and Other Issuances of Our Equity Securities
 
On January 26, 2004, through a share exchange, the shareholders of FII converted 10,000 shares (post-reverse split) of FII common stock outstanding into 25,000,000 shares (post-reverse split) of IVFH. On January 29, 2004, in a transaction known as a reverse acquisition, the shareholders of IVFH exchanged 25,000,000 shares (post-reverse split) of IVFH for 25,000,000 shares (post-reverse split) of Fiber Application Systems Technology, Ltd. (formerly known as Alpha Solarco) (“Fiber”), a publicly-traded company.   The shareholders of IVFH thus assumed control of Fiber, and Fiber changed its name to Innovative Food Holdings, Inc.  The 25,000,000 shares (post-reverse split) of Innovative Food Holdings are shown on the Company’s balance sheet at December 31, 2003 as the shares outstanding.  The par value of the 25,000,000 shares (post-reverse split), or $2,500, was charged to additional paid-in capital.   There were 157,037 shares (post-reverse split) outstanding of Fiber at the time of the reverse acquisition; the par value of these shares, or $16, was charged to  additional paid-in capital at the time of the reverse acquisition.
 
The Company had a 1-for-200 reverse split of its common stock effective March 8, 2004.  There were a total of 30,011,706 shares issued and outstanding immediately before the reverse split, and 157,037 shares issued and outstanding immediately after the reverse split.
 
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, the Company also had the following transactions:
 
The Company cancelled 5,573,158 shares (post reverse-split) of common stock for which were issued but not outstanding.
 
The Company recorded a discount to the convertible notes payable for the accrued interest in the amount of $128,079 during the twelve months ended December 31, 2007.
 
The Company issued 3,250,000 shares (post-reverse split) of common stock for an employee bonuses.  The fair value of these shares in the amount of $8,125 was charged to operations during the three months ended June 30, 2007.

8


The Company issued 800,000 shares (post-reverse split) of common stock for the conversion of $4,000 of accrued interest on a note payable.
 
All of the issuances described above were exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 for the following reasons:  (1) none of the issuances involved a public offering or public advertising of the payment of any commissions or fees; (2) the issuances for cash were to “accredited investors”; (3) the issuances upon conversion of notes were for notes held at least 12 months and did not involve the payment of any other considerations; and (4) all issuances to affiliates and to non-affiliates holding the securities for less than 2 years carried restrictive legends.
 
Derivative Securities Currently Outstanding
 
The Company has  issued convertible notes payable in the aggregate principal amount of $966,000 with  and accrued interest of $378,465 which if converted to common stock, will result in our issuance of  approximately  254,222,520 shares (post-reverse split) of common stock at a conversion rates ranging from  $0.005 to $0.010 per share (post-reverse split). The Company has warrants to purchase an additional 189,000,000 shares (post-reverse split) of common stock  at December 31, 2007  The Company has also committed to issue, pursuant to a penalty calculation regarding the registration of shares of our common stock, an additional  110,280,000 shares (post-reverse split) of common stock.   The Company also has outstanding at December 31, 2007 options to purchase 15,500,000 shares (post-reverse split) of common stock. The total number of additional shares of common stock issuable at December 31, 2007 is  569,002,520.  The company does not currently have sufficient shares of common stock authorized to satisfy these additional issuances of shares.
 
Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans
 
We do not currently have any equity compensation plans.

Critical Accounting Policy and Estimates
 
Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Plan of Operations section discusses our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue   recognition, accrued   expenses, financing   operations, and contingencies and litigation.  Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. There are no significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements.
 
Background
 
We were initially formed in June 1979 as Alpha Solarco Inc., a Colorado corporation. From June 1979 through February 2003, we were either inactive or involved in discontinued business ventures. In February 2003 we changed our name to Fiber Application Systems Technology, Ltd.
 
In January 2004, we changed our state of incorporation by merging into Innovative Food Holdings, Inc. (“IVFH”), a Florida shell corporation. As a result of the merger we changed our name to that of Innovative Food Holdings, Inc. In February 2004 we also acquired Food Innovations, Inc. (“FII”) a Delaware corporation incorporated on January 9, 2002 and through FII we are in the business of national food distribution using third-party shippers.
 
Transactions With a Major Customer
 
Transactions with a major customer and related economic dependence information is set forth (1) following our discussion of Liquidity and Capital Resources, (2) under the heading Transactions with Major Customers in Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, and (3) as the fourth item under Risk Factors ..
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
The following is a discussion of our financial condition and results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

10


This discussion may contain forward looking-statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from the forward looking-statements discussed in this report. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements, the notes thereto and other financial information included elsewhere in the report.
 
Year Ended December 31, 2007 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2006
 
Revenue
 
Revenue decreased by $340,686, or approximately 5%, to $6,733,402 for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $7,074,088 in the prior year.  A substantial portion of the decrease was attributable to a decrease of $50,331 in cheese products, a decrease of $18,912 in chocolates, a decrease of $78,426 in discontinued products, a decrease of $181,916 in meat and game products, a decrease of $83,368 in poultry product, a decrease of $49,599 in produce, a decrease of $107,071 in seafood products.  Our expansion of specialty product line offerings was responsible for an additional $228,938 in sales.  We continue to assess the potential of new revenue sources from the manufacture and sale of proprietary food products and will implement that strategy if we deem it beneficial to us. 
 
Any changes in the food distribution operating landscape that materially hinders our current ability and/or cost to deliver our fresh produce to our customers could potentially cause a material impact on our net revenue and gross margin and, therefore, our profitability and cash flows could be adversely affected.
 
See "Transactions with Major Customers" and the Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") mandated FR-60 disclosures following the "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section for a further discussion of the significant customer concentrations, loss of significant customer, critical accounting policies and estimates, and other factors that could affect future results.
 
Cost of sales
 
Our cost of sales  for  the year ended December 31, 2007 was $5,051,629, a decrease of $320,720 or approximately 6% compared to cost of sales of $5,372,349 for the year ended December 31, 2006. The primary reason for the increase in the cost of sales was an associated decrease in sales volumne compared to 2006.
 
Selling, general, and administrative expenses
 
Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased by  $356,485 or approximately 17%, to $1,732,105 during the year ended December 31, 2007 from $2,088,590 for the year ended December 31,  2006.  The decrease was attributable primarily to corporate overhead, with such cost decreases including professional fees incurred, primarily with respect to addressing matters relating to our past compliance with corporate and securities laws and regulations, and  other non-allocable SG&A. 
 
Penalty for Late Registration of Shares
 
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, the Company accrued a liability for the issuance of 22,760,000 shares (the “Penalty Shares”)  of the Company’s common  stock pursuant to a penalty calculation with regard to the late registration of common stock underlying convertible notes payable.  The Company charged to operations the amount of  $64,984, during the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, representing the fair value of the Penalty Shares. This was $1,603,808 less than the $1,668,792 charged in 2006.  The Company accrued the issuance of an additional 22,760,000 Penalty Shares during prior periods for a total of 110,280,000 Penalty Shares issuable.   During the year  ended December 31, 2007, the Company revalued the 110,280,000  Penalty Shares using the Black-Scholes valuation method, and at December 31, 2007 the Company had a total liability for the issuance of Penalty Shares in the amount of $330,840.  This revaluation resulted in a loss of $3,296 which the Company recorded in operations during the year ended December 31, 2007.
 
Change in Fair Value of Warrant and Option Liability
 
At December 31, 2007, the Company has outstanding warrants and options to purchase an aggregate 204,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.  The Company valued this warrant liability at December 31, 2007 at $580,648.  This revaluation resulted in a loss of $59,042 which the Company included in operations for the year ended December 31, 2007.  This is a decrease of $5,638,583 or approximately 101% compared to a gain of $5,579,541 from the revaluation of the warrant and option liability which the Company recorded during the twelve months ended December 31, 2006.
 
Change in Fair Value of Conversion Option Liability
 
At December 31, 2007, the Company had outstanding a liability to issue an aggregate of 254,222,520 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to convertible notes payable.  The Company revalued this liability at December 31, 2007 at $612,429.  This revaluation resulted in a loss of $175,222 which the Company included in operations for the year ended December 31, 2007.  This is an decrease of $6,841,290 or approximately 103% compared to a gain of $6,666,068 from the revaluation of the conversion option liability which the Company recorded during the twelve months ended December 31, 2006.
 
Interest (income) expense
 
Interest (income) expense  decreased by $76,582 or approximately 20% to $308,923 during the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, compared to $385,505 during the twelve months ended December 31, 2006  The primary reason for the decrease was a  decrease in the amortization of the beneficial conversion features associated with convertible notes payable.

11


Net Income
 
For the reasons above, the Company had a net loss for the period ended December 31, 2007 of $661,799, an decrease of  $12,799,212 or approximately1064% to  compared net income of $12,137,413 during the twelve months ended December 31, 2006. We noted that these "profits" are a result of the application of various accounting rules as they apply to the Company and that these "profits" have no impact on our cashflows.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources at December 31, 2007
 
As of December 31, 2007, the Company had current assets of $616,935, consisting of cash of $74,610, loans receivable of $ 285,000, interest receivable of $7,147, other current assets of  $7,030, and trade accounts receivable of $243,148.  Also, at December 31, 2007, the Company had current liabilities of  $3,954,080, consisting of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $765,614, accrued interest of $316,058; accrued interest – related parties of $142,621; current portion of notes payable of $927,870; current portion of notes payable – related parties of $278,000; warrant liability of $580,648; conversion option liability of $612,429; and penalty for late registration of shares of $330,840.  This resulted in a working capital deficit of $3,337,145.
 
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, the Company had cash provided by operating activities of $3,392. The Company charged to operations $8,125 for stock issued to employees as a bonus, and $49,415 for depreciation and amortization.  The Company used net cash from financing activities of $6,690.  The Company used cash of $40,610 in investing activities, which consisted of purchase of property and equipment of $40,610.
 
Historically, our primary cash requirements have been used to fund the cost of operations, with additional funds having been used in promotion and advertising and in connection with the exploration of new business lines.
 
The Company’s cash on hand may be insufficient to fund its planned operating needs.  Management is continuing to pursue new debt and/or equity financing and is continually evaluating the Company’s cash and capital needs.
 
The Company expects that any sale of additional equity securities or convertible debt will result in additional dilution to our stockholders.  The Company can give no assurance that it will be able to generate adequate funds from operations, that funds will be available, or the Company will be able to obtain such funds on favorable terms and conditions.  It the Company cannot secure additional funds it will not be able to continue as a going concern.
 
By adjusting its operation and development to the level of available resources, management believes it has sufficient capital resources to meet projected cash flow through the next twelve months. The Company also intends to increase market share and cash flow from operations by focusing its sales activities on specific market segments. However, if thereafter, the Company is not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources, on terms acceptable to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition.  Currently, we do not have any material long-term obligations other than those described in Note 8 to the financial statements included in this report, nor have we identified any long-term obligations that we contemplate incurring in the near future. As we seek to increase our sales of perishables, as well as identify new and other consumer oriented products and services, we may use existing cash reserves, long-term financing, or other means to finance such diversification.
 
The independent auditors report on our December 31, 2007 financial statements state that our recurring losses raise substantial doubts about our ability as a going concern.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues, or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
 
Inflation
 
In the opinion of management, inflation has not had a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of its operations.
 
Transactions With Major Customers
 
The Company’s largest customer, US Foodservice, Inc. and its affiliates, accounted for approximately and 95% and 97% of total sales in the years ended December 31, 2007, and 2006, respectively.  A contract with Next Day Gourmet, LP, a subsidiary of U.S. Foodservice, expires September 11, 2008. Negotiations are underway to extend the existing contract or to sign a new contract, and the company has continued to have US Foodservice, Inc. as a customer. Of our remaining approximately 19 active customers in the year ended December 31, 2007, no other single customer contributed 1% or more to our net revenue.
 
We continue to conduct business with U.S. Food Services.
 
Critical Accounting Policy and Accounting Estimate Discussion
 
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
 
The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  These estimates include certain assumptions related to doubtful accounts receivable, stock-based services, valuation of financial instruments, and income taxes.  On an on-going basis, we evaluate these estimates, including those related to

12


revenue recognition and concentration of credit risk. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that is believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  We believe our estimates have not been materially inaccurate in past years, and our assumptions are not likely to change in the foreseeable future.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
In  December  2002,  the FASB  issued  SFAS No.  148 -  Accounting  for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure. This statement amends SFAS No. 123 - Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, providing alternative methods of voluntarily transitioning to the fair market value based method of accounting for stock based employee  compensation.  SFAS 148 also requires disclosure of the method used to account for stock-based  employee  compensation and the effect of the method in both the annual and interim financial  statements.  The provisions of this statement  related to transition  methods are effective for fiscal years ending  after  December  15,  2002,  while  provisions   related  to  disclosure requirements  are effective in financial  reports for interim periods  beginning after December 31, 2003.
 
We elected to continue to account for  stock-based  compensation  plans using the intrinsic  value-based method of accounting  prescribed by APB No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related  interpretations.  Under the provisions of APB No. 25, compensation expense is measured at the grant date for the difference between the fair value of the stock and the exercise price.
 
From its inception, the Company has incurred significant costs in connection with the issuance of equity- based compensation, which is comprised primarily of our common stock and warrants to acquire our common stock, to non-employees. The Company anticipates continuing to incur such costs in order to conserve its limited financial  resources.  The determination of the volatility, expected term and other assumptions used to determine the fair value of equity based compensation issued to non-employees under SFAS 123 involves subjective judgment and the consideration of a variety of factors, including our historical stock price, option exercise activity to date and the review of assumptions used by comparable enterprises.
 
We account for equity based  compensation,  issued to  non-employees in exchange for goods or services, in accordance  with the  provisions of SFAS No.123 and EITF No. 96-18,  "Accounting for Equity  Instruments  That are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring,  or in  Conjunction  with Selling,  Goods or Services".

ITEM 7. Financial Statements
 
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
 
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Innovative Food Holdings, Inc.
Naples, Florida
 
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Innovative Food Holdings, Inc and subsidiary (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficiency, and cash flows for the years then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its Internal Control over financial reporting.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 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 of America.
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 16, the Company has incurred significant losses from operations since its inception and has a working capital deficiency.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 16.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

INNOVATIVE FOOD HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Acquisition and Corporate Restructure
 
We were initially formed in June 1979 as Alpha Solarco Inc., a Colorado corporation. From June 1979 through February 2004, we were either inactive or involved in discontinued business ventures. In February 2003 we changed our name to Fiber Application Systems Technology, Ltd.
 
On January 26, 2004, through a share exchange, the shareholders of FII converted 10,000 shares (post-reverse split) of FII common stock outstanding into 25,000,000 shares (post-reverse split) of IVFH. On January 29, 2004, in a transaction known as a reverse acquisition, the shareholders of IVFH exchanged 25,000,000 shares (post-reverse split) of IVFH for 25,000,000 shares (post-reverse split) of Fiber Application Systems Technology, Ltd. (formerly known as Alpha Solarco) (“Fiber”), a publicly-traded company.   The shareholders of IVFH thus assumed control of Fiber, and Fiber changed its name to Innovative Food Holdings, Inc.  The 25,000,000 shares (post-reverse split) of Innovative Food Holdings are shown on the Company’s balance sheet at December 31, 2003 as shares outstanding.  These shares are shown at their par value of $2,500 as a decrease of additional paid-in capital at the acquisition date of January 29, 2004.   There were 157,037 shares (post-reverse split) outstanding in Fiber at the time of the reverse acquisition; the par value of these shares, or $16, was transferred from additional paid-in capital at the time of the reverse acquisition.
 
The Company had a 1-for-200 reverse split of its common stock effective March 8, 2004.  There were a total of 30,011,706 shares issued and outstanding immediately before the reverse split, and 157,037 shares issued and outstanding immediately after the reverse split.
 
Business Activity
 
FII is in the business of providing premium white tablecloth restaurants with the freshest origin-specific perishables and specialty products direct from its network of vendors to the end users (restaurants, hotels, country clubs, national chain accounts, casinos, and catering houses) within 24 - 72 hours, except as stated hereafter, eliminating all wholesalers and distributors. We currently sell the majority of our products through a distributor relationship with Next Day Gourmet, L.P., a subsidiary of US Foodservice, Inc. (“USF”), a $20 Billion broadline distributor.
 
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 and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The accompanying consolidates financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary,  Food Innovations, Inc.  All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation of these entities.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue upon shipment of the product to the customer.  Shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company are included in cost of goods sold.
 
For revenue from product sales, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting  Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104,  "Revenue  Recognition,"  which superseded SAB No. 101, "Revenue  Recognition in Financial  Statements." SAB No. 104 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized:  (1) persuasive  evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has


occurred;   (3)  the  selling   price  is  fixed  and   determinable;   and  (4) collectibility is reasonably assured.  Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectibility of those amounts.  Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded.  The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required.  SAB No. 104 incorporates Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") No. 00-21,  "Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements."  EITF No. 00-21 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets.  The effect of implementing EITF No. 00-21 on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations was not significant. This issue addresses determination of whether an arrangement involving more than one deliverable contains more than one unit of accounting and how the arrangement consideration should be measured and allocated to the separate units of accounting.  EITF No.  00-21 became effective for revenue arrangements entered into in periods beginning after June 15, 2003.  For revenue arrangements occurring on or after August 1, 2003, the Company revised its revenue recognition policy to comply with the provisions of EITF No. 00-21.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
Cash equivalents include all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less which are not securing any corporate obligations.
 
Accounts Receivable
 
The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts.  The Company’s estimate is based on historical collection experience and a review of the current status of trade accounts receivable.  It is reasonably possible that the Company’s estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts will change.  Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $10,000 at December 31, 2007 and 2006.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are valued at cost.  Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives up to five years using the straight-line method.  Leasehold improvements are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
 
The estimated service lives of property and equipment are as follows:
 
Computer Equipment                  3 years
Office Furniture and Fixtures     5 years
 
Inventories
 
The Company does not currently maintain any material amount of inventory.
 
Income Taxes
 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets, including tax loss and credit carryforwards, and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
 
Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are   individually   classified as current and non-current based on their characteristics.  Realization of the deferred tax asset is dependent on generating sufficient taxable income in future years. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management,  it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The carrying amount of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes payable, line of credit, accounts payable and accrued expenses, none of which is held for trading, approximates their estimated fair values due to the short-term maturities of those financial instruments.
 
Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company reviews its property and equipment and certain identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The test for impairment is required to be performed by management at least annually. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted operating cash flow expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
 
As of December 31, 2007, the Company’s management believes there is no impairment of its long-lived assets.  There can be no assurance,


however, that market conditions will not change which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.
 
Comprehensive Income
 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 (“SFAS 130”), “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards for reporting and displaying of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances.  Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners.  Among other disclosures, SFAS 130 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements.  The Company does not have any items of comprehensive income in any of the periods presented.
 
Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share
 
In accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," the basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders less preferred dividends by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per common share is computed similarly to basic loss per common share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were not anti-dilutive.  The Company has excluded all out standing warrants, options, and shares issuable upon conversion of preferred stock to common stock from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because these securities are anti-dilutive.
 
Liquidity
 
As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had net income (loss) of ($661,799), and $12,137,413 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, but this variance was principally due to changes in fair values of warrant, conversion option and registration penalty liabilities rather than improved operations in 2006. The Company  has an accumulated deficit of $4,025,046 at  December 31, 2007.  In addition, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $3,337,145, as of December 31, 2007, respectively.  Consequently, its operations are subject to all risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. (see note 16)
 
Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and trade receivables.  The Company places its cash and temporary cash in investments with credit quality institutions.  At times, such investments may be in excess of applicable government mandated insurance limit.  Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited to the large number of customers comprising the Company’s customer base.
 
Reclassification
 
Certain reclassifications have been made in prior year’s financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current year.
 
 Stock-Based Compensation
 
On January 1, 2006 the company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004) "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS 123 (R) which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options and employee stock purchases related to a Employee Stock Purchase Plan based on the estimated fair values. SFAS 123 (R) supersedes the company's previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25") for the periods beginning fiscal 2006.
 
The  company  adopted  SFAS 123 (R) using the  modified  prospective  transition method,  which required the application of the accounting standard as of January 1, 2006. The company's  Consolidated  Financial  Statements reflect the impact of SFAS 123(R). Stock based compensation  expense recognized under SFAS 123 (R)
 
Stock-based  compensation  expense to be  recognized is based on the value of the portion of share-based  payment awards that is ultimately  expected to vest during the period.
 
A summary of option  activity  (post-reverse split) under the Plan as of December 31,  2007,  and changes during the period then ended are presented below:

Aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and options exercisable at December 31, 2007 was $0. Aggregate intrinsic value represents the difference between the company's  closing  stock price on the last  trading  day of the fiscal  period, which was $0.003 (post-reverse split) as of December 31, 2007,  and the exercise  price  multiplied by the number  of  options  outstanding.  As  of  December 31,  2007,  total  unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to non-vested stock options was $0. The total fair value of options vested was $300 for the year ended  December 31, 2007.
 
Significant Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments, and certain other items, at fair value. SFAS 159 applies to reporting periods beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of SFAS 159 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Accounting for Conversion Options Embedded in Convertible Notes and Convertible Interest
 
The Company has certain convertible notes payable which contain embedded beneficial conversion features.  Through August 2005, the beneficial conversion features of these convertible notes were accounted for by the equity method, whereby the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion features were considered discounts to the notes. These discounts were immediately amortized to interest expense. During September 2005, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued and issuable exceeded the number of shares of common stock the Company had authorized, and this triggered a change in the manner in which the Company accounts for these  beneficial conversion features.  In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended (“SFAS 133”), the debt features provision contained in the terms governing the Notes are not clearly and closely related to the characteristics of the Notes.  Accordingly, the features qualified as embedded derivative instruments at September 30, 2005 and because they do not qualify for any scope exception within SFAS 133, they were required by SFAS 133 to be accounting for separately from the debt instrument and recorded as derivative financial instruments.  In September 2005, the Company valued the  beneficial conversion features of its notes payable using the Black-Scholes valuation method, and arrived at an aggregate value of  $12,528,662.  Pursuant to Emerging Issues Task Force Issue  00-19 “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s  Own Stock” (“EITF 00-19”) “If a contract is reclassified from permanent  or temporary equity to an asset or a liability, the change in fair value of the contract during the period the contract was classified as equity should be accounted for as an adjustment to stockholders’ equity.”  Accordingly, during the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company charged the amount of $12,445,536 to stockholders’ equity.  $5,665,290 of this amount was charged to additional paid-in capital, which brought the balance of additional paid-in capital to $0. The remainder, or $6,780,286, was charged to accumulated deficit.  During subsequent periods,  the conversion option liability will be revalued, and any change in value charged to operations.  At December 31, 2007 and 2006, the conversion option liability was valued at $612,429 and $437,207, respectively.  The revaluations resulted in (gain) loss during the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 of $175,222 and $(6,666,068).

10. PENALTY FOR LATE REGISTRATION OF SHARES
 
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company accrued liabilities for the issuance of 22,760,000 and 58,560,000 shares, respectively (post-reverse split) (the “Penalty Shares”) of the Company’s stock pursuant to a penalty calculation with regard to the late registration of shares underlying convertible notes payable.  At December 31, 2007, there were a total of 110,280,000 Penalty Shares issuable.  The Company charged to operations $64,984 and $1,668,792, during the twelve months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, representing the fair values of the Penalty Shares accrued.  During the  twelve  months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company  revalued  these 22,760,000 and 58,560,000 Penalty Shares (post-reverse split).  This resulted in  (gain) loss of $3,296 and $(2,332,952), respectively.  The liability carried on the Company’s balance sheets at December 31, 2007 and 2006 representing the value of the Penalty Shares is $330,840 and $262,500, respectively.
 
11. INCOME TAXES
 
The Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standard No. 109 which requires the recognition of deferred tax  liabilities  and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns.  Under this method,  deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities  using  enacted  tax  rates in  effect  for the  year in  which  the differences  are  expected to reverse.  Temporary differences between taxable income reported for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes are insignificant.
 
For income tax reporting purposes,  the Company's aggregate unused net operating losses approximate  $800,000 which expire through 2027, subject to limitations of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended.  The deferred tax asset related  to the  carryforward  is  approximately  $280,000.  The  Company  has provided a valuation  reserve  against the full amount of the net operating loss benefit,  because in the opinion of management based upon the earning history of the Company, it is more likely than not that the benefits will not be realized.
 
Components of deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2007, and 2006 are as follows:

Accounting for Warrants and Freestanding Derivative Financial Instruments
 
The Company accounts for the issuance of common stock purchase warrants and other freestanding derivative financial instruments in accordance with the provisions of EITF 00-19.  Based on the provisions of EITF 00-19, the Company classifies, as equity, any contracts that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (ii) gives the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement).  The Company classifies as assets or liabilities any contract that (i) require net-cash or (ii) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement in shares (physical or net-share settlement).
 
The fair value of these warrants is determined utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation model.  Through August 2005, these warrants were accounted for by the equity method, whereby the fair value of the warrants was charged to additional paid-in capital.  During September, 2005, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued and issuable exceeded the number of shares of common stock the Company had authorized, and this triggered a change in the manner in which the Company accounts for these  warrants and the Company began to account for these warrants utilizing the liability method.    Pursuant to EITF 00-19,  “If a contract is reclassified from permanent  or temporary equity to an asset or a liability, the change in fair value of the contract during the period the contract was classified as equity should be accounted for as an adjustment to stockholders’ equity.”  Accordingly, during the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company charged the amount of  $10,374,536 to stockholders’ equity.    At the same time, the Company changed the way in which it accounts for the beneficial conversion feature of convertible notes payable (see note 8).
 
The accounting guidance shows that the warrants and options which are a derivative liability should be revalued  each reporting period. The recorded value of such warrants can fluctuate significantly based on fluctuations in the market value of the underlying securities of the issuer of the warrants and options, as well as in the volatility of the stock price during the term used for observation and the term remaining for warrants and options.  During the twelve months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company recognized (gain) loss  of $59,042 and $(5,579,541), respectively,  for the decrease in the fair value of the warrant liability and recorded the gains in operations during the twelve months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006.  The fair value of these instruments  was estimated as December 31, 2007, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk free interest rate: 4.25%; expected dividend yield: 0%; expected option life: 5 years; and volatility: 194,46%. The fair value of these instruments  was estimated as December 31, 2006, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk free interest rate: 4.75%; expected dividend yield: 0%; expected option life: 5 years; and volatility: 152,50%.
 


Insufficient Authorized but Unissued Shares of Common Stock
 
The Company has a potential obligation to issue 612,334,320 and 697,210,916 shares (post-reverse split) of common stock upon the conversion of convertible notes and accrued interest, warrants and penalty shares issuable at December 31, 2007, and 2006, respectively.  The Company  had 171,787,638  and 151,310,796 shares (post-reverse split) of common stock outstanding at December 31, 2007,  and 2006, respectively, and  500,000,000 shares (post-reverse split) of common stock authorized at December 31, 2007 and 2006.   The Company has exceeded its shares authorized by 284,121,958  and  197,210,916 shares (post-reverse split) at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

16.  GOING CONCERN
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.  Although the Company has reported a loss of  $661,799 for the year ended December 31, 2007, it had an accumulated deficit of $4,025,046as of December 31, 2007.  The Company’s net loss of $661,799 was generated primarily by non-cash transaction, including non-cash losses of $ 64,984 on the change in fair value of  warrant liabilities; $175,222 on the change in fair value of conversion option liabilities; and $308,923 of interest accruals. The Company cannot be certain that anticipated revenues from operations will be sufficient to satisfy its ongoing capital requirements.  Management believes the Company will generate sufficient capital from operations and from debt and equity financing in order to satisfy current liabilities in the succeeding twelve months.  Management’s belief is based on the Company’s operating plane, which in turn is based on assumptions that may prove to be incorrect.  If the Company’s financial resources are insufficient the Company may require additional financing in order to execute its operating plan and continue as a going concern.  The Company cannot predict whether this additional financing will be in the form of equity or debt, or be in another form. The Company may not be able to obtain the necessary additional capital on a timely basis, on acceptable terms, or at all.  In any of these events, the Company may be unable to implement its current plans for expansion, repay its debt obligations as they become due or respond to competitive pressures, any of which circumstances would have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. The Company has not made the financial statements which would be necessary should the Company not be able to continue as a going concern.

THE COMMITTEES
 
The Board of Directors does not currently have an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, a Nominating Committee or a Governance Committee. The usual functions of such committees are performed by the entire Board of Directors.  We are currently having difficulties attracting additional qualified directors, specifically to act as the audit committee financial expert, inasmuch as we are not current in our public filings and have only limited resources to purchase D & O insurance.  However, we believe that at least a majority of our directors are familiar with the contents of financial statements.
 
Attendance at Meetings
 
From February, 2004 through December 31, 2004, during 2005 during 2006 and during 2007, the Board of Directors met or acted without a meeting pursuant to unanimous written consent fourteen times, five times, and seven times, respectively. No director attended less than 75% of all scheduled meetings.

36

 
We are not currently subject to the requirements of any stock exchange with respect to having a majority of “independent directors” although we believe that we meet that standard inasmuch as Messrs. Gold and Ferrone are “independent” and only Mr. Klepfish, by virtue of being our Chief Executive Officer, is not independent.
 
Code of Ethics
 
We have adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to each of our employees, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as well as members of our Board of Directors. We have filed a copy of such Code as an exhibit to this annual report.
 
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
 
From February 17, 2004, the date when current management obtained control of the Company through the fiscal year end at December 31, 2004, none of our officers and directors filed any Forms 3 or 4. This is due to the fact that they were unaware of their filing obligations having not been so advised by their then retained corporate counsel. The SEC's public records reflect that on October 15, 2004, acting under direction of previous counsel, a Form 15 was filed by the Company indicating that the Company was no longer subject to the filing requirements of the Exchange Act. We have recently determined that this filing was in error as we have had, for at least the last three years, more than 45,000 shareholders of record.  The Form 15 was withdrawn on June 6, 2006.  Each of the persons subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) have now been advised of their filing obligations and they have indicated their intention to file the necessary reports. To our knowledge, based upon responses to questions we directed to such filing persons, none of said filing persons have made any “short-swing” sales under the provisions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act.

ITEM 10. Executive Compensation
 
The following table sets forth information concerning the compensation for services in all capacities rendered to us for the year ended December 31, 2007, of our Chief Executive Officer and our other executive officers whose annual compensation exceeded $100,000 in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, if any. We refer to the Chief Executive Officer and these other officers as the named executive officers.
