 providing an expanding selection of natural,
organic, and functional food and beverage products, competitive pricing, convenience and exceptional customer service. If changes in
consumer preferences decrease the competitive advantage attributable to these factors, or if we fail to otherwise positively differentiate
our product offering or customer experience from our competitors, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could
be materially and adversely affected.

Many
of our current competitors have, and potential competitors may have, longer operating histories, greater brand recognition, larger fulfillment
infrastructures, greater technical capabilities, significantly greater financial, marketing, and other resources and larger customer
bases than we do. These factors may allow our competitors to derive greater net sales and profits from their existing customer bases,
acquire customers at lower costs or respond more quickly than we can to new or emerging technologies and changes in consumer preferences
or habits. These competitors may engage in more extensive research and development efforts, undertake more far-reaching marketing campaigns,
and adopt more aggressive pricing policies (including but not limited to predatory pricing policies and the provision of substantial
discounts), which may allow them to build larger customer bases or generate net sales from those customer bases more effectively than
we are able to execute upon. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully compete against these competitors.

We
expect competition in the Natural, Organic and Functional Food and Beverage industry generally to continue to increase. We believe that
our ability to compete successfully in this market depends upon many factors both within and beyond our control, including:

    ●
    the size and composition of our customer
    base;

    ●
    the number of products that we feature on
    our website;

    ●
    the quality and responsiveness of our customer
    service;

    ●
    our selling and marketing efforts;

    ●
    the quality and price of the products that
    we offer;

    ●
    the convenience of the shopping experience
    that we provide;

    ●
    our ability to distribute our products and
    manage our operations; and

    ●
    our reputation and brand strength.

Given
the rapid changes affecting the global, national, and regional economies generally and the Natural, Organic and Functional Food and Beverage
industry, we may not be able to create and maintain a competitive advantage in the marketplace. Our success will depend on our ability
to respond to, among other things, changes in consumer preferences, laws and regulations, market conditions, and competitive pressures.
Any failure by us to anticipate
