Matters Discussed in this Report May Be Considered
"Forward-looking Statements" Within The Meaning of The Securities
Act of 1933 And The Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as Amended

its Profitability May Be Adversely Effected", and "The Company

Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
As of January 17, 2000, Floridino's International Holdings,
Inc., acquired one hundred (100%) percent of the outstanding
shares of common stock of Triton Prestige Products, Inc., a
Florida Corporation, in exchange for Fifty Thousand (50,000)
shares of restricted common stock of Floridino's subject to a
three (3) year lock up agreement.
Under the acquisition, Floridino's will acquire a valid
lease agreement, held by Triton, on a space of approximately
9,750 square feet at the Sands Commerce Center in Palm City,
Florida. The lease is for a period of ten (10) years and expires
on December 31, 2009. Also under the acquisition, Triton shall
be relieved from all debt by the sellers of the Triton common
stock and shall indemnify and hold Floridino's harmless against
any claim which may arise as to any of the accounts payable debt
of Triton. In addition, Floridino's acquired under the parties'
Purchase Agreement various equipment which were previously used
in the operation of Triton. The equipment includes various
restaurant equipment and office equipment, including desks
chairs, which are more particularly set forth in the attached
Purchase Agreement.
Triton Prestige Products has been operating since July 1999.
Its primary business is to provide frozen pizza products to
institutions, schools and governmental entities for consumption
in their cafeterias. Triton believes that it will generate sales
of $1,500,000.00 over the next year based on its current
capacity. Subsequent to the acquisition, Triton will operate as
a wholly owned subsidiary of Floridino's. The Company intends to
continue to operate Triton under the Triton brand name and label.
Under the terms of the acquisition, Floridino's issued
50,000 shares of its common stock to the share holders of Triton
for the purpose of acquiring all of the outstanding shares of
Triton. Triton's total assets at the time of purchase were
$106,000. Triton's net loss from inception to the time of
purchase was ($43,000.00). After reviewing the transaction, and
utilizing the purchase method of accounting to record the
business combination, Floridino's asserted that the acquisition
did not exceed the 20% threshold in any of the tests outline in
Rule 310(c). Therefore, no certified financial statement for
Triton are required to be prepared for this filing.
ITEM 4. CHANGE IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
As of January 17, 2000, the Company dismissed the certified
public accounting firm, Infante, Lago and Company, as a result of
the departure of Jesus Lago, the partner overseeing the audit and
financial reporting of the Company. Mr. Lago has become a
partner of the certified public accounting firm of Berkovitz and
Company, P.A., located in the State of Florida, and the Company
has elected to retain this firm for the purpose of conducting
future audits of the Company and for providing financial reports
for the Company.
The decision to dismiss Infante Lago and Company was based
solely on the departure of Mr. Lago from that firm and did not
stem from any disagreement between the Company and Infante Lago
on any matter of accounting principles, practices, financial
statements, disclosure or auditing practices or procedures. No
such disagreements existed between the Company and Infante Lago
prior to their dismissal. Infante Lago and Company has been
provided with a copy of this Form 8-K and, in accordance with the
relevant provisions of Regulation S-K, has provided a letter
indicating whether it agrees with the contents of this Form 8-K.
The engagement of the accounting firm of Berkovits & Company
has commenced on January 17, 2000.
