FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - PRNewswire-FirstCall - Sept. 14
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Sept. 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- United Company's Trebor Industries, Inc. (d/b/a Brownie's Third Lung) (BULLETIN BOARD: UCPJ) exceeded management's target of a 30% increase in revenues for the eight-month period ended August 31, 2004.This increase is predominantly attributable to revenues related to the custom design, engineering and fabrication services provided to the yachting industry.
Brownie's Third Lung has long been a leader in air and mixed gas delivery systems, specifically serving the diving/yachting market. Plans are currently in the making to expand these offerings to yacht builders, allowing seamless integration of diving systems during the initial builds, and value-added sales for the builders themselves.
Additional revenues were generated through the SeaDoo Scooter distributorship established earlier this year. In August, Brownie's facility in Fort Lauderdale shipped 90% of its first allotment from SeaDoo within 24 hours of receipt. Additional sales promotions will be announced in September to further promote this new relationship.
