Brightec, Inc., (OTCBB: BRTE) creator of the world's first
photographic quality glow-in-the-dark media, today announced that
it has retained Market Place Gifts, Inc., of Chicago, IL to
represent their PlayGlo(TM) line of glow-in-the-dark puzzles and
stickers in the states of Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota,
Wisconsin, North Dakota and South Dakota.
The engagement of Market Place Gifts expands PlayGlo's
representation to four of the country's major markets in time for
the holiday season. "It was important for us to enter at least one
more large region of the US before holiday buying goes into full
swing," said Patrick Planche, Founder and President of Brightec.
"Market Place Gifts has the reputation as a powerhouse in the
Midwest and has an impressive portfolio of independent stores as
well as regional chains," added Mr. Planche.
"We love the opportunity to help grow a new product," said
Carole Rosenbaum, Principal of Market Place Gifts. "This line has
wonderful potential. Between having a glow-in-the-dark effect
unavailable in any other product in the marketplace and being made
here in the US -- it's a winning combination and we're excited to
be involved as this product line takes off!"
Brightec's initial PlayGlo puzzle collection features six 11" x
15", 100 piece, animal-themed puzzles for children ages 6 and up,
at a suggested retail price of $9.99. Also available under the
PlayGlo brand, are glow-in-the-dark stickers using Brightec's
unique media. Each of the four different sticker collections, with
images that complement the puzzle line, comes with repositionable
backing, meaning the stickers can be applied to almost any surface
and then removed and relocated. The stickers have a suggested
retail price of $2.99.
PlayGlo puzzles and stickers are available to qualified
retailers. All PlayGlo products are manufactured in the USA.
