In 1995 the domain http://www.beefjerky.com
was originally acquired by FreshMade Meat Products, a subsidiary of
Orbital Development. Beefjerky.com developed their extraordinary recipe
and promotes sales of Final Frontier Jerky. Final Frontier Jerky is
a black pepper flavor beef jerky, said to be the "Best I ever ate!"
by countless voracious consumers.
Media attention to Beefjerky.com's
"Space Program" has helped to establish and expand Internet
mindshare of the domain and increase the sales volume of Final Frontier
Jerky. Competing for attention head-to-head with the "commercial"
space programs of giant corporations like Pepsi-Cola and Pizza Hut,
Beefjerky.com has consistently achieved excellent media presence around
the world with its low-cost achievements in Space marketing.
Drawing on Orbital Development's
extensive contacts and experience in the space industry, Beefjerky.com
developed, implemented, and continues with their Space-related marketing
program. Working with NASA Marshall Space Flight Center personnel for
testing and approvals, Final Frontier Jerky was selected by the astronaut
crew and flew aboard the Space Shuttle Atlantis STS-79 flight on September
16th, 1996. A few days later, the shuttle docked at Mir Space station
where Final Frontier Jerky was shared by both crews.
On May 20th, 2001 Final Frontier
Jerky again rocketed to space, this time aboard a Russian Progress freighter
bound for the International Space Station. Upon an ISS flight crewmember's
personal request, the beef jerky treat was included in the "personal
mass allowance" that each astronaut family is given for each launch
opportunity.
On April 25th, 2002 Final
Frontier Jerky left Earth for a third time, in the pocket of Mark Shuttleworth's
spacesuit. A South African citizen, Mark is the second private astronaut
to ever fly to space.
Beefjerky.com continues to
seek product space flight opportunities for additional media exposure.
