Signing the Lease Agreement for Their World-Class Manufacturing Facility

TORONTO, May 04, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Worksport Ltd (OTC: WKSP) (or the “Company”) is excited to update its investors, shareholders, and supporters that it officially signed a lease agreement for its new Canadian manufacturing facility. This memorializes a deal which also creates a valuable relationship with the property’s ownership, a fully integrated, Tier-one, OEM automotive manufacturer and supplier. Along with being the property owner, management may be advising Worksport leadership at the beginning, fostering a strong working relationship with the Company, helping to develop Worksport’s manufacturing footprint in Canada and position the Company to effectively manage expected growth. “My team and I are very excited for the opportunity to work with such an established business in the automotive manufacturing sector and very much look forward to what the future holds,” states Worksport CEO Steven Rossi.

The facility – located in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, is in a manufacturing hub just outside of Toronto, minutes from Person International Airport - and will be upgraded at no further expense to Worksport. As a result, Worksport’s new world-class facility could be move-in ready within just a couple months. Another major benefit of this business partnership will give the Company the ability to grow into the space. At first, Worksport will utilize under half of the available space, taking more as the Company expands and grows, being a huge cost-savings benefit to Worksport.

It is worth noting that this manufacturing facility will far exceed the needs for any equipment the Company could require to meet its expected goals. As an added benefit, the operating space comes already equipped with stamping presses that could be utilized in the production process, with minimal capital expenditure. Additionally, the Company has begun to purchase advanced tools to aid in further development of its current and upcoming product lines, from technologically advanced 3D scanners to 3D printers allowing for rapid prototyping to get new products to market faster.

This new facility will be where the forthcoming TerraVis is proposed to be assembled and enhanced, with plans for close partner collaboration aiding in meticulous oversight. Worksport management is also moving ahead with new projects.
