Business Wire
Crescita Therapeutics Inc. (TSX: CTX and OTC US:
CRRTF) (“Crescita” or the “Company”), a
growth-oriented, innovation-driven Canadian commercial dermatology
company with in-house R&D and manufacturing capabilities, today
announced that it has signed an exclusive Manufacturing and Supply
Agreement (the “Agreement”) with a leading Canadian diversified
healthcare services provider (the “Client”) to supply various
sanitary products, including hand sanitizer, hand soap, and hand
lotions (together the “Products”), for onward distribution to a
network of publicly funded healthcare organizations, represented by
a buying group (the “Buying Group” and the “Buying Group
Members”).
With an initial term of five years and a three-year renewal
option exercisable by the Buying Group, the Agreement does not
provide for minimum order quantities. However, based on the
forecasted volumes, annual revenue under the Agreement may reach up
to $6.0 million by the end of the initial term. Crescita’s
manufacturing revenue will be contingent on the Client’s ability to
convert Buying Group Members from their existing solutions to its
new sanitizer dispensing solution. As its exclusive manufacturing
partner, Crescita will support the Client in developing the public
sector healthcare market for the Products through competitive
bidding processes with other buying groups in Canada.
“We are very pleased to have been selected by the Client, a
prominent player in the Canadian pharmaceutical industry, as their
exclusive supplier for this multi-year, multi-jurisdiction project.
We believe that the strong partnership we have forged will pave the
way for future collaborations,” commented Serge Verreault,
President and CEO of Crescita.
