Item 1.01       Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 31, 2018, Pacific Ventures Group, Inc. (the "Company") entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") with Royalty Foods, LLC, a Nevada limited liability corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("Royalty Foods"), and San Diego Farmers Outlet, Inc., a California corporation ("San Diego Farmers Outlet"). Pursuant to the Agreement, at the closing of the transactions contemplated therein (the "Closing"), Royalty Foods will acquire substantially all of the operating assets and assume certain liabilities of San Diego Farmers Outlet (the "Asset Purchase").

San Diego Farmers Outlet is a wholesale and retail seller of fresh produce, groceries, meals, food and other food-related goods. San Diego Farmers Outlet was founded in 2002 and is located in San Diego, California.

The Closing is subject to various closing conditions, including, among others, San Diego Farmers Outlet's material performance or compliance with obligations and covenants required by the Agreement, San Diego Farmers Outlet's delivery to the Company and the Company's satisfaction upon review of certain due diligence items, the Company successfully securing financing to complete the Asset Purchase (the "Financing"), and San Diego Farmers Outlet's execution of Ancillary Agreements (as defined below). At Closing, upon satisfaction of each of the closing conditions set forth in the Agreement, Royalty Foods shall acquire those properties, rights, contracts, claims and assets of San Diego Farmers Outlet (defined in the Agreement as the "Transferred Assets"), and assume certain liabilities of San Diego Farmers Outlet (defined in the Agreement as the "Assumed Liabilities"). The total consideration to be paid by the Company to San Diego Farmers Outlet in connection with the Asset Purchase will be $1,050,000 in cash, subject to inventory, accounts payable, accounts receivable and other true-up adjustments as set forth in the Agreement.

The parties to the Agreement made certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements that are customary for transactions of this nature (including non-compete, non solicitation of employees and no solicitation of an alternative transaction covenants), agreed to certain indemnification terms as set forth in the Agreement, and agreed to enter into certain agreements in connection with the Asset Purchase (the "Ancillary Agreements").

There can be no assurance that the Financing and the Asset Purchase will be consummated or as to the date by which the Asset Purchase may be consummated, if at all.

The foregoing description is a summary only, does not purport to set forth the complete terms of the Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and hereby incorporated by reference.
