GlobeNewswire 2010-03-04
PORT CHESTER, N.Y., March 3, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Euro Group of
Companies, Inc. (Pink Sheets:EGCO) announced today that Europhone, the
Company's telecommunications products and services subsidiary, has
entered into an agreement with Global Master Corp., a subsidiary of
Kingsway Trading Corporation, a New York company with over 25 years
experience in distributing products and services to pharmacies, to
market its EUGRO brand calling cards through a network of over 550
pharmacies in the Northeast.
The initial order for 200,000 calling cards, with face values of $2.00;
$5.00; $10.00; and $20.00, is valued at approximately $2,000,000. As in
the case of all calling card sales, Europhone recognizes revenue from
the sale upon activation of the card by the vendor. The Eugro calling
card is a "clean" card, with no hidden fees or charges, and offers very
attractive rates for international calling.
The international calling card industry accounts for over ten billion
dollars in sales each year, and continues to grow at a better than 10%
rate per annum.
Euro Group of Companies, Inc., headquartered in Port Chester, New York,
with offices in Shanghai, China and Athens, Greece, is an operating
company focused on three distinct and separate businesses --
telecommunications products, transportation products and consumer
electronics and appliances- that management believes offer unusual
opportunities for revenue and profit growth.
