Dixie Lee International Industries, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: DLII), a growing master franchisor with more than 80 restaurants and over 40 years of continuous operations, announced today that it has acquired the assets of several "Dixie Lee" related private Canadian corporations and Dixie Lee Food Systems (USA), Inc., a privately held New York corporation.

The acquisition is final and the Company is now the master franchisor of over 80 Dixie Lee restaurants strategically positioned, primarily in Eastern Canada, with stores from coast to coast. The transaction was undertaken with the specific aim of expanding the Company's presence, as well as to develop an even greater franchisee network.

Dixie Lee has three concepts designed to meet the consumers' demand for fast, quality, economical meals. The Dixie Lee family restaurants range from 1800 to 2500 square feet.

Joe Murano, Dixie Lee CEO, said, "This is an important benchmark in the growth of our company. Our acquisition is complete and the quotation of Dixie Lee International Industries' common stock on the public market puts us in an excellent position to gain additional exposure for our company and for our projects as we move to execute our strategic development plan. Our goal is to enhance shareholder value and we believe the best way to achieve this is simply by enhancing Dixie Lee's strengths."
