CALGARY, Alberta and TORONTO, April 06, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Magnetic North Acquisition Corp. (TSXV: MNC) ("Magnetic North" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that one of its investee companies, Previcare, Inc. ("Previcare"), has signed a multi-year agreement with a major distributor that serves global retailers and drug store chains throughout North America (the "Agreement").  Magnetic North previously announced the final closing of its investment into Previcare to hold 32% of the common shares of Previcare on February 12th, 2020.

The Agreement stipulates an initial weekly purchase order for Previcare's hand sanitizer commencing immediately.  Additional recurring weekly orders for Previcare's suite of sanitizing and disinfecting products are expected to be arranged in the coming days and weeks.

Jeffrey Fredenburgh, President and CEO of Previcare stated, "We are very excited to have this agreement in place as it provides incredible access to the US and Mexican markets through a series of global retailers and drug store chains.  We anticipate Previcare to generate $30 million of revenue in this calendar year."

Kevin Spall, Co-CEO of Magnetic North said, "After four and a half years of Magnetic North management and board expertise supporting Previcare on its corporate development and scale up, this Agreement signifies a major step forward in the revenue growth for Previcare, which will be of significant benefit to Magnetic North shareholders."

In the current environment, Previcare is in advanced discussions on a number of additional supply agreements and Magnetic North will keep shareholders up to date on all developments as they transpire.
