CARLSBAD, CA / ACCESSWIRE / June 28, 2021 / OPTEC International, Inc. (OTC PINK:OPTI)
Today the company announced the launch of a new group purchasing division via their newly acquired, wholly owned subsidiary WeShield called "WeShield Together." The group will contain over 25 outside commodity based sales organizations and brokers who will retain WeShield as their purchasing wing to help drive down rising costs on globally stressed goods from overwhelmed supply chains in the wake of the global pandemic. Further details about 'WeShield Together" will be released along with the partner organizations joining the division in early Q3, 2021. OPTEC International is projecting an additional $25 million in revenue annually from this new division.
WeShield CEO Michael Sinensky commented, 'The pandemic brought out the best in so many entrepreneurs who pivoted away from their devastated companies to help bring the supply chain back for essential organizations who protected us from our common invisible enemy. Now we are coming together to help many of these new and old commodity based sales companies to lower their purchasing costs by pooling our resources and allowing WeShield and its experience with global sourcing to represent them. I feel the bottom line savings due to our collective buying power will be another large revenue stream, which will be split between the pool participants and WeShield. This new division further proves that WeShield has become the go to for many organizations for all their sourcing needs."
OPTEC CEO Roger Pawson commented, "We are seeing only the beginning of the growth and results from the WeShield acquisition. In less than a month since they have joined the OPTEC family, we have seen extraordinary effort from our new partners to keep moving the needle higher for expected growth. We can only imagine the potential we can see together after a few years."
