June 2, 2008 — BioForce Nanosciences Holdings, Inc., a producer of integrated biological and mechanical systems at the micro and nano scales, has signed a distribution agreement with NanoAndMore USA, Inc., the North and South American distribution arm of NanoWorld Holding AG. NanoAndMore GmbH, is also a distributor of BioForce Nanosciences’ products in Europe.
“We are very pleased by all the success NanoAndMore GmbH has had with our product in Europe, and we want to bring that sales craftsmanship to our US sales efforts,” says Kerry Frey, president and CEO of BioForce Nanosciences. “This agreement, in addition to that relationship, will allow us to reach the numerous potential customers of NanoAndMore USA.”
