Milestone follows years of extensive operational diligence, comprehensive validation, and testing across high-volume commercial kitchens.

Approval builds on successful commercial rollout across brand locations announced on May 9, 2024, clearing the path for procurement across the parent company’s global franchise network.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Beyond Oil Ltd. (TSX: BOIL) (OTCQB: BEOLF) (“Beyond Oil” or the “Company”), a food-tech innovation company dedicated to reducing health risks associated with fried food while improving food quality, lowering operational costs, minimizing waste and enhancing sustainability, today announced a major commercial milestone in its ongoing relationship with one of the world's largest multinational restaurant companies.

Building on the commercial rollout with the parent company's brand announced on May 9, 2024, the multinational restaurant group has now added Beyond Oil to its global approved products list.

The parent company represents one of the largest restaurant enterprises in the world, with an extensive international footprint encompassing tens of thousands of restaurants across more than 100 countries and territories, generating tens of billions of dollars in annual system sales. Its brand portfolio includes some of the world's most recognized and leading quick-service and fast-casual restaurants.

With global vendor approval now in place, Beyond Oil is part of the parent company’s approved products list, enabling the Company to begin working directly with franchise groups and regional operators across its global network.

The corporate approval follows extensive multi-year operational performance and evaluation, building on extensive initial diligence and pilot testing prior to the franchisee deployment in 2024. Over this period, Beyond Oil demonstrated consistent operational results in high-volume commercial kitchens, improving frying performance and oil management, reducing operating costs and waste, while maintaining high standards of food quality and safety.

The receipt of global approved vendor status immediately strengthens Beyond Oil's international commercial pipeline. The Company is actively advancing discussions and onboarding processes with several large-scale regional franchise groups operating under the parent company's brands across international jurisdictions, with initial franchise evaluations and commercial planning underway across multiple markets, including Europe and North America.

“Achieving approved vendor status with one of the world’s largest restaurant systems is a transformative commercial milestone for Beyond Oil,” said Jonathan Or, CEO of Beyond Oil. “This achievement follows years of operational validation, testing and relationship building across multiple markets, reflecting the operational consistency and product reliability required to operate within a global restaurant system of this scale. With approved vendor status now in place, we can begin working directly with franchise groups across a network spanning tens of thousands of locations worldwide, supported by the parent company’s corporate team. We believe this milestone marks the beginning of a defining new growth phase for Beyond Oil, translating years of proven operational validation into commercial scale across the global restaurant industry.”
