In addition, PSI Corp. has entered into a definitive agreement with a national convenience store brand to install kiosks in six convenience stores, in two pilot markets, executing its strategic initiative to expand markets.
Eric L. Kash CEO stated, "the convenience store model is a test market. PSI Corp. is entering this retail channel with a number of strategic alliances, who endeavor to ascertain, the ability to connect to customers seeking savings. One of the relationships is with a major buying group with over 6,200 members and is a marketing consultant to a national chain of 15,000 stores. If the six store pilot program is successful over a 90 day period, it can lead to an aggressive deployment in the months to come."
PSI Corp. has previously signed agreements for nationwide kiosk installation and maintenance, and has pending agreements with four additional kiosk manufacturers to meet growing demand. PSI Corp.'s kiosk has evolved from an original $27,000 multi-function kiosk with a lead time of 12 weeks to the current $4,100 kiosk with a 6-8 week lead time.
