Further to the press release dated March 24, 2020, where Primo signed a production order with Celebrity Driven Brand Beauty Kitchen to provide 1,000 units of free non-hydroalcoholic hand sanitizer. The hand sanitizer will be produced by beauty kitchen, located at 1512 Industrial Rd. Boulder City, Nevada. The production Facility currently has the capacity to produce $450,000USD of product per month. The relationship with Beauty Kitchen has allowed Primo to private label most of Beauty Kitchens product line. This allows Primo to produce product without the construction of its own facility.
The initial run of 1,000 units was financed internally. Future production orders will be financed as procurement orders from the health industry are received. The company will entertain options for equity financing once orders start to come in. The sample of 1,000 units will be handed out to hospital and health care industry professionals.
The management team and Board of Directors at Primo have decided that after handing out all 1,000 units, the hand sanitizer will be made available for purchase directly from the Company’s online shop at:www.primoceuticals.com/shop Users of the site may also notice that the Company has recently added to the shop a ready to purchase Primo branded, breathable, washable and re-usable neck gaiter/face mask that can be used in assisting to combat the virus.
Andy Jagpal, President Comments:
“This is an absolute win for the company. We have joined companies like Purell who have been permitted to provide these essential products to combat the spread of the Corona virus. Our goal is to be able to bid on procurement contracts from government hospitals and nursing home facilities as soon as our 1,000 sample hand sanitizer arrive.”
“I would also like to add, if you’re a private corporation, healthcare center, pharmacy or any type of business that requires hand sanitizer to fight against the virus, we ask that you send your requests to Primo at: [email protected] so that we can fulfill those orders without delay.”
