“We again had a record breaking third quarter and nine month period as all aspects of our business continue to grow,” said president and CEO Edmond Pera. “We are currently experimenting with new products which are natural extensions of our current product lines to be introduced in 2013. We are cautiously optimistic that these line extensions will open up new markets for us.”
