Ovation Science Expands its Distribution of DermSafe into Mexico to Assist in the Fight Against the Coronavirus (COVID-19)

C.OVAT

VANCOUVER, BC and LAS VEGAS, NV / ACCESSWIRE / June 23, 2020 / Ovation Science Inc. (CSE:OVAT) ("Ovation" or the "Company"), announces it has expanded distribution of its DermSafe® hand sanitizer lotion to Mexico. Ovation's new distributor, Grupo Venta International, S.A. de C.V. ("Grupo Venta"), with corporate offices in Guadalajara, Mexico, has made their first purchase of over 10,000 bottles of DermSafe, which they will begin distributing through-out Mexico. DermSafe® is a pharmaceutical-grade hand sanitizer lotion that uses chlorhexidine gluconate; an ingredient used worldwide in hospitals as it has a proven ability to kill germs. DermSafe has been developed with patented Invisicare® technology, which binds the product to the hands and resists wash-off and rub-off.

Grupo Venta, founded in 1990, is a company dedicated to supplying the highest quality, cutting-edge surgical equipment, supplies, cosmetic and wellness products through-out Mexico. They have three distinct business units. With its forty-six sales representatives across the country, they target various medical specialties including over 3,000 dermatologists, 1,900 surgeons and other medical specialists and hospitals. Secondly, they employ a B2B and B2C strategy which focuses on bringing post-surgical and dermatology products to be sold in doctors' offices as well as retail and on their online portal called "Top Care Store". Thirdly, Grupo Venta utilizes a retail and online strategy for wellness products marketed by department stores, pharmacies, and through various other online marketplaces in Mexico. This opportunity with Grupo Venta provides the Company with the ability to expand its sales efforts of DermSafe hand sanitizer through an established medical distributor with a robust distribution network.

"We are thrilled that Grupo Venta has proceeded very quickly with their desire to make DermSafe available through-out Mexico through their medical and consumer distribution channels. We knew they were excited to get onboard when over 80 sales representatives and staff participated in our virtual training. We were also impressed when they shortly after organized a physicians' virtual training for this week," said Terry Howlett, President of Ovation. "Doctors understand that alcohol hand sanitizers can have a devastating effect on your hands and that contact dermatitis caused by the alcohol can be very painful for people." He added, "Grupo Venta is well positioned in Mexico to sell DermSafe as they have an established distribution system to both medical professionals and consumers and they understand the need for a pharmaceutical-grade hand sanitizer like DermSafe."

"We are pleased to be working with Ovation Science and to be able to provide DermSafe hand sanitizer to help protect the citizens of Mexico during this devastating COVID-19 pandemic. Adding DermSafe to our current COVID-19 product offering is a great fit as we interact with physicians and consumers across our country with other medical, surgical and aesthetic / wellness products," said Ms. Gabriela González Alonso, Director General and C.E.O. of Grupo Venta. "As we have seen a surge of COVID-19 cases in Mexico recently, we are thankful that we can do our part by bringing high quality products such as DermSafe to the marketplace."
