AVENTURA, FL--(Marketwired - February 16, 2016) - Orbital Tracking Corp., (OTCQB: TRKK) (the "Company"), announced today that it
has launched its online retail operations in Japan, its first in Asia, through an online storefront on Amazon Japan. The new
Japanese website is the latest addition to the Company's growing global online sales footprint which now includes the UK, North
America, Germany, France, Spain and Italy, and is an important launching point for the Company's expected launch into China later
in 2016.
"Expansion into Asia, starting with Japan, is a major element in management's strategic growth plan for Orbital Tracking as we
continue to build one of the world's largest online distribution networks focused on Mobile Satellite Solutions," said David
Phipps, Chief Executive Officer of Orbital Tracking Corp.
Mobile Satellite Solutions ("MSS") products are especially of interest to Japanese inhabitants because of the country's exposure
to a number of storms and natural disasters including tsunamis, floods, typhoons, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions, all of which
can interrupt terrestrial-based communication systems. According to data and research published by Amazon and McKinsey, Amazon's
market share of online product sales in Japan is estimated to be US$7.6bn with 48m unique visitors each month. 62% of online
shoppers in Japan visit Amazon.jp which is Japan's second largest online retailer. Overall, E-commerce sales are expected to reach
US$62 billion by 2016.
Phipps added, "Over the past year, Orbital Tracking Corp. through its subsidiaries, has demonstrated strong growth driven by
increasing global demand for real time communications and location tracking products sourced from the world's leading
manufacturers. Building upon our successful launch on Amazon Japan, we fully intend to capitalize on our continued momentum through
the introduction of new MSS products and our entry into additional regional markets in 2016 targeting new consumers, businesses and
government users."
