NEW YORK, Apr. 29, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Breathe eCig
Corp. (OTCQB: BVAP) ("Breathe" or "the Company"), electronic
cigarette industry innovator and pioneer, has announced that it has
received a purchase order for all of its remaining first generation
product from Knoxville, Tennessee
based distributor Ampa Group ("Ampa"). Ampa, inclusive of its
affiliate companies, owns and operates over 30 retail locations, a
hospitality portfolio and has a distribution alliance that reaches
over 300 unique retailers in the East
Tennessee region spanning from Johnson City to Chattanooga. Ampa has
also provided the Company with a much larger purchase commitment
for the Company's second generation products, including the CBD
e-cigarette being co-developed with Tauriga (OTCQB:TAUG). The
Company has been working diligently with its Hong Kong based manufacturer, The KMG Group
("KMG"), to ensure delivery of its proprietary second generation
device by May 20, 2015. Once
the Company is notified by KMG of the exact delivery date of its
second generation product, it will notify shareholders via a press
release.
Breathe eCig Corp. CEO Mr. Josh
Kimmel stated, "The completion of the Company's first
purchase order with Ampa Group, which consists of 1500 units (all
remaining first generation units), will allow Breathe to establish
a strong presence in its local market and is a historic milestone
for the company. The 1500 units that encompass this purchase
order comprise all remaining product inventory of the Company's
first generation product line. Breathe is excited to
introduce its improved and redesigned second generation product in
the very near term as the Company gears up for its upcoming launch
in the New York City Metropolitan
area. Breathe's roots are in Knoxville, Tennessee, and it is important that
the Company introduce its socially responsible product to consumers
in this area and generate revenues ahead of the official launch in
New York on June 1, 2015."
Ampa Group President Mr. Henry
Sadiq expressed, "We are thrilled to be partnering with
Breathe to introduce their truly cutting edge product lines into a
strategically significant market for this segment. We look
forward to leveraging our existing infrastructure in the retail and
hospitality space to build brand awareness for Breathe with this
first purchase order tranche and establish a platform for future
product launches. Our confidence in Breathe's superior
quality product, unique marketing approach, and socially
responsible philosophy gives us great confidence in structuring a
substantial and enduring partnership."
The agreement follows additional recent developments from
Breathe, including a manufacturing agreement with Hong Kong based KMG to develop the company's
second and third generation e-cigarette products, as well as the
establishment of two wholly owned subsidiaries to focus on
intellectual property and medical devices. In addition,
Breathe is pleased to report meaningful progress with respect to
its license agreement with Tauriga Sciences, Inc. (OTCQB:
TAUG) to co-develop a new legal CBD e-cigarette.
Lastly, on March 17, 2015 Breathe
announced a partnership with Native American Marketing Enterprises
to expand market presence into the Native American gaming
industry. The Company remains confident that its product will
sold to the Native American gaming industry and casinos sometime
during the second or third calendar quarter of 2015.
With a commitment to social responsibility, Breathe's second
generation product reproducibly and precisely dispenses the
recommended amount of nicotine per puff and offers an optional
childproofing device—both firsts in the industry. The company is
committed to maintaining the highest possible environmental
standards during production, educating the public on the dangers of
smoking and second hand smoke, as well as funding and supporting
programs to prevent youth cigarette smoking.
