Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - September 28, 2021) - ScreenPro Security Inc. (CSE: SCRN) ("ScreenPro" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company jointly with Datametrex AI Limited ("Datametrex") is scheduled to provide COVID-19 testing services to the entertainment operations and talent department for a cruise line owned and operated by one of the world's largest media and entertainment company.
Datametrex will be supplying the 1copy™ COVID-19 qPCR Multi Kit, ("1drop"), that can identify the new variants COVID-19, including the Delta variant.
The Company will be delivering onsite testing services at the cruise lines Toronto area rehearsal facility for their officers, crew performers, directors, choreographers, audio technicians, stagehands, and costume technicians who train and rehearse for port adventures, family and adult programming, youth activity performances with theatrical productions, live music, and special events while shipboard. The scheduled testing will commence September 30th continuing into the first quarter of 2022 and will increase each month until the full entertainment operations are hired and trained.
"This is an important milestone for the Company. This new contract for the cruise industry gets our feet in the door in Canada and will increase ScreenPro's revenue and its margins. With multi coronavirus variants circulating globally, we believe that our testing business will continue growing into new sectors. Current vaccines were designed for earlier versions of COVID-19, which means they may not be the perfect match for new variants and might not work quite as well. Communities and businesses will need to be vigilant and test regularly to minimize the danger of coming down with COVID-19," said Lena Kozovski, Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
"This new testing service for the cruise industry gets our feet in a new revenue stream. When the pandemic hit in March 2020, cruise ships were particularly hit hard, which brought the industry to a halt worldwide stranding over 50 cruise lines and more than 270 ships. In an industry worth approximately $150 billion, and 1,177,000 jobs equaling $50.24 billion in wages and salaries, it is important to test crew regularly to minimize the threat of a shutdown again," stated Marshall Gunter, CEO of Datametrex.
