GBLT Corp. Receives USD $2.7 Million Follow-On Order from European Mass Merchandiser for Private Battery Label
TORONTO and DUEREN, Germany, Feb. 18, 2021 /CNW/ - GBLT Corp. (TSXV: GBLT) (OTCQB: GBLTF) (FSE: 4G9) ("GBLT" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received a follow-on order of USD $2.7 million from one of Europe's biggest mass merchandisers to provide private label batteries. This merchandiser had previously placed an order for USD $4.8m as announced on January 21st, 2021 and has now placed a follow-on order due to overwhelming customer demand.
In addition to AgfaPhoto branded batteries and mobile energy products, GBLT delivers private label batteries that vendors can brand their own. This is often done to provide an alternative to more expensive, brand-named batteries for consumers that are seeking a cheaper product. This allows retailers to solidify their own brand awareness with consumers.
"Demand for private label batteries has vastly exceeded our expectations in the early parts of 2021 as mass merchandisers are seeing unprecedented demand for mobile energy products in the face of lockdowns," said Dr. Thilo Senst, CEO of GBLT Corp. "With smaller retailers unable to remain open due to lockdown restrictions, GBLT's client list of large big-box retailers has seen an increase in demand for these products even well beyond what they had initially planned for. We anticipate continued growth in demand for our products well into the future for our AgfaPhoto branded mobile energy solutions."
