Michael Panosian, Chief Executive Officer of ToughBuilt, commented, "The launch of our Amazon online storefront marks an important milestone for ToughBuilt, as this is a major step in the U. S. roll-out of our e-commerce and online distribution strategy. In order to differentiate ourselves to the massive Amazon Prime member base, all our products are also Prime eligible, which provides enhanced product placement and exclusive benefits for Amazon's 100 million plus Prime members. We look forward to aggressively launching on additional online platforms, both in the U.S. and around the world."

"This e-commerce initiative is only one part of what we believe is an effective three-pronged global sales strategy, which includes direct retail channels, global distribution partners, and now, an e-commerce platform. We have been successful in penetrating many of the leading big-box retailers, and are focused on adding new retailers, as well as increasing our footprint within existing stores. We also endeavor to continue adding distributors worldwide and expect to enter a number of new markets this year, while growing our international presence in already initiated markets. Lastly, we believe our e-commerce strategy is well timed given the favorable and growing brand awareness, as well as the increasing global customer demand. We look forward to providing further updates in the days and weeks ahead."
