Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada -- April 23, 2020 --
InvestorsHub NewsWire -- The Yield Growth
Corp. (CSE: BOSS) (OTCQB: BOSQF)
(FSE:
YG3) ("Yield
Growth") announces its subsidiary Urban Juve has
successfully listed its Urban Juve hand sanitizer gel with the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA"), allowing
it to market and sell its hand sanitizer gel with 65% ethyl alcohol
throughout the U.S. The FDA issued NDC number 75385-0010-1 as
confirmation of acceptance of listing of the Urban Juve hand
sanitizer gel, which may be labelled as an antiseptic to help
reduce bacteria on the skin. The formula contains Aloe Vera which
can help ward off side effects related to dryness of the skin, and
Eucalyptus Oil which is known to relieve stress and boost mental
clarity.
Yield Growth Hand Sanitizer is Accepted for Listing by the FDA for
U.S. Sales
Urban Juve began pre-selling its
Health Canada approved hand sanitizers to Canadian retail chains
and Canadian consumers this week, for delivery in May. Canadian
consumers can now place pre-orders at urbanjuve.com. The company
intends to begin taking orders for its FDA listed hand sanitizer
product from U.S. retailers and U.S. residents in May for
deliveries beginning in July.
Yield Growth has adopted a policy to
donate hand sanitizer products to COVID-19 front line workers and
has allocated 1,000 units for initial donations. Handwashing isn't
always practical, especially for front line workers. Through Urban
Juve's Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook accounts followers will be
asked to nominate communities most in need of supplies.
"Our team is
tremendously proud to play a part in the solution, during this
chaotic time, by leveraging our expertise to develop high quality,
natural hand sanitizers," says Karla Cheon, Yield Growth VP,
Marketing. "The saying goes: 'people don't remember what you say,
they remember how you made them feel,' and we hope to bring some
peace of mind to our community through the availability and
donations of our sanitizers."
To combat Coronavirus, if soap and
water are not readily available, the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC) recommends consumers use an alcohol-based hand
sanitizer that contains at least 60 percent ethyl alcohol.
On March 27, 2020 and on April 2,
2020 Health Canada's Natural and Non-prescription Health Products
Directorate (NNHPD), issued Product Licenses NPN 80097926 and NPN
80098154 for Urban Juve's hand sanitizer products.
The hand sanitizer market is expected
to grow at a CAGR of over 17% between 2019 and 2025 according to a
new report from Aritzon, with sales this year expected to reach US
$11 billion in 2020, a 600% increase over last year. Alcohol-based
hand sanitizers are set to become a standard household good.
