Uh, we kind of thought we'd be able to find someone in Australia to, to basically produce the powder for us with the right equipment and that type of things, and we probably spent, what was it, Artie, over 12 months looking.
18:40
Yeah.
18:40
We, and, and we did not, we did not find anybody in Australia.
18:44
Either they didn't have the right equipment or they didn't have extra capacity to make it for us.
18:51
Then the other thing was we were bringing in chicken into their facility, so some people were, you know, not open to bringing in another species.
19:00
And so there was, like, lots of different logistical reasons we could not actually find manufacturing in Australia and so we had to kind of go looking, you know, outside of Australia for manufacturing.
