Beyond Oil Expands European Reach Through Strategic Partnership with Pilpel Hungary

Beyond Oil Ltd. and Pilpel Hungary Kft. have announced exclusive distribution agreements that position Pilpel as the authorized distributor of Beyond Oil's products in Hungary, Austria, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia. The partnership, effective September 4, 2025, grants Pilpel exclusive rights to market, sell, and distribute Beyond Oil's innovative frying solution to the foodservice industry across these territories for an initial five-year term through December 31, 2030, with automatic renewal options tied to minimum purchase requirements.

The significance of this expansion lies in Pilpel's established presence as the region's leading fruit and vegetable wholesaler, currently supplying more than 1,000 foodservice accounts in Hungary while actively expanding operations across Central Europe. Pilpel's initial order of one container totaling 10,800 kg fulfills its 2025 minimum commitment, with annual requirements escalating to 75,600 kg in 2026 and increasing significantly throughout the term to maintain exclusive distribution rights. The partnership includes royalty payments where Pilpel will pay Beyond Oil an annual royalty equal to 5% of total sales to end user customers in the territories.

Pilpel's comprehensive infrastructure, including its established sales organization, broad product portfolio serving restaurants, quick-service chains, hotels, and catering companies, combined with its reliable logistics network, provides Beyond Oil with immediate access to a mature distribution channel across four European markets. The appointment of a dedicated leadership team including Rafi Orel as Project CEO, Regina Boros as Managing Director, and Péter Határ as Project Manager demonstrates Pilpel's commitment to ensuring strong execution of the partnership.

This strategic alignment represents a validation of Beyond Oil's technology and value proposition in reducing health risks associated with fried food while lowering operational costs, minimizing waste, and enhancing sustainability. The partnership reflects Beyond Oil's objective to align with exclusive strategic partners capable of delivering sustainable long-term growth as the company scales across European markets. The exclusion of international or global chain customers from the exclusivity clause allows Beyond Oil to pursue additional distribution channels while securing regional market penetration through Pilpel's established network.
