MONDAY , JANUARY 26, 2004 04:40 PM
LAS VEGAS, Jan 26, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
Company Finalizes Development of its New Equipment
and Pushes on with Sales Program
Crystalix Group International (OTCBB: CYXG) today announced that a record number of promotional products distributors visited the Crystalix booth at the Promotional Products Association International (PPAI) premier industry event. The Expo, held Jan. 12-16 at the Mandalay Bay and Convention Center in Las Vegas, again proves to be a valuable exposure event to multiple distribution channels. The PPAI estimates annual sales in excess of $15 billion for the retail year of 2003. "The top 40 distributors, who produce sales in excess of $1 billion annually, accounted for less than 15% of the Crystalix current business model for 2003. The dramatic impact we made at this premier event was unprecedented and we are confident that tremendous growth will come from this key distribution channel," commented John J. Lais III, chief marketing officer.
"The Crystalix marketing team is now finalizing its whole range of promotional materials and will be focusing on expanding its customer base, both domestically and internationally," continued Lais.
About Crystalix Group International Inc.
Crystalix is a leading manufacturer, distributor and marketer of laser subsurface engraved optical-quality glass products. Its principle product is a personalized three-dimensional engraved crystal that features the facial image of one or more persons or other three-dimensional images. As of Sept. 30, 2003, Crystalix had 44 kiosks owned by its marketing partners in retail shopping malls, resorts, promenades, casinos, cruise ships and theme parks where its crystals are engraved and sold. Its engraving process involves the use of a high-resolution digital camera, a laser image scanner and a laser that is configured together by a standard desktop personal computer, using its proprietary software and a Windows operating system. The laser image scanner converts images from a digital camera, a customer's digital image, or a hard copy photograph into a three-dimensional or two-dimensional digitally formatted image that will be engraved into the center of the crystal by the laser.
