The appointment comes one month after the passing of President John O'Bireck, as well as following a thorough review of operations across all divisions.
Company officials have indicated that Mr. O'Bireck was part of the review, which began several months ago, and that he played a role in helping select Mr. Peticca as his replacement.

He is the Co-Founder and CEO of Datapult Inc., and Partner and COO of Laser Bonding Tech. Throughout his career, Peticca has worked with some of the country's most recognizable brands. His experience in health technology is expected to serve Sparta well as the Company works on developing and distributing health technology backed by Web3.

Key Projects…
The Company is on the verge of unveiling a whole host of new and improved TruckSuite™ products/services that are best-in-class and will create multiple revenue streams. The enhanced TruckSuite™ will include a comprehensive, yet easy to navigate App that allows truckers to quickly access the most robust array of trucking solutions in North America. Market research, including analysis by Sparta's U.S TruckSuite™ counterparts, indicates high demand for the one-of-a-kind solutions. Meanwhile, Sparta's Environment division is pleased to announce that its Oman electronic waste recycling operation (ERS International), has accepted its first large load of e-waste for processing. Oman has been stockpiling e-waste for years, which means ERS can expect a constant flow of materials for processing - and along with recycling of e-waste at its Toronto facility, constant carbon credit generation. One credit represents one tonne of carbon dioxide. In the spring of 2024, the price of one tonne in Canada will jump from $65.00 to $80.00. The Company is also working on the enhancement of its Autonomous Medicine project (Doc-in-a-Box) to make it even more intelligent, intuitive, and immersive. The goal with the Doc-in-a-Box technology is to transform healthcare delivery by giving clinicians a quicker way to diagnose illness, especially in remote areas.
"We have a lot of work to do in the coming months, but I'm ready to move forward. I think there is a real opportunity here to enhance operational effectiveness and accelerate long-term profitable growth," said Tony Peticca.
