On Aug 22, ForceField Energy Inc. ("ForceField"), an international manufacturer, seller and distributor of energy products and solutions, signed an agreement with Sabia Corporation, a leading hotel and casino owner and operator in Latin America, to supply and install LED lighting at Fantastic Proceres Casino located in Guatemala City, Guatemala. The agreement was a result of the Company's distribution agreement with DEK International, a global supplier of technology for the gaming industry.
"This is the first of many potential casino opportunities that we are working on closing with our distribution partner DEK International", stated Richard St-Julien, ForceField's Chairman. "We believe our LED technology and solutions offer significant benefits across various applications and industries. But when specifically contemplating a casino's 24/7 operation, the opportunity to improve energy efficiency, increase lighting longevity and reduce maintenance are especially important given the disruptive impact of lighting issues on players, the casino staff, and its operations. We continue to promote LED lighting solutions that offer a quick return on investment, with this project delivering a payback in less than a year."
Cenk Basar, Executive Director at DEK International commented, "With more than 100 casino clients based in Latin America, we see significant opportunities to expand our LED lighting presence with Sabia Corporation, as well as other casino owners and operators throughout the region. Backed by ForceField's LED technology and solutions, we can help our clients reduce their energy consumption, save their money, and improve their operating efficiency in a way that enhances both the client and patron experience."
Jean-Paul Sabini, President of Sabia Corporation added, "Upon the successful completion of this first installation, DEK International and Sabia Corporation are prepared and expect to equip an additional four casinos in the Guatemala, and thus create a strategic and substantial footprint to serve as a reference for all casinos located in Central America. Sabia Corporation's presence in Guatemala makes it the perfect ambassador to facilitate new installations across the country."
