CENTERVILLE, MA--(Marketwire - July 20, 2010) - UV Flu Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: UVFT) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce the receipt of an initial sales order via a European distributor for immediate delivery of 50 ViraTech UV-400 air purifiers to Societe Nema Citizen of Paris, France.
Societe Nema Citizen (www.citizenfrance.com) is the largest distributor of Citizen Brand electronics in France, along with a growing inventory of health and medical-related products readily sold throughout much of Western Europe. The Company is well established and offers an aggressive strategy designed to introduce the UV-400 to an existing audience base utilizing regional relationships and proven market penetration practices.
“We expect this order to translate into dramatically larger shipments beginning in the 4th quarter,” stated Jack Lennon, President of UV Flu Technologies. “Our initial shipment is slated for use as demonstration units specifically targeting fifty catalog re-sellers. The distributor further supports these introductory efforts by providing a strong internet presence combined with a sizeable and knowledgeable sales force spread across the continent.
“The demographic makeup and densely populated urban environment of Europe complements the initial thrust of our marketing approach in a very profound manner. We have analyzed the marketplace and based on our findings we are determined to start by creating awareness within the aging populations where respiratory problems are a real issue. The ViraTech UV-400, which kills airborne bacteria, is a perfect fit for dramatically reducing the causes of many of these respiratory problems, and we aim to get the word out about our product as quickly and effectively as possible,” said Mr. Lennon.
Further details regarding the Company’s business, financial reports and agreements are filed as part of the Company’s continuous public disclosure as a reporting issuer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) EDGAR database.
