Canada NewsWire

Open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and accessible from anywhere, KITS Eyecare offers immediate access to high quality eyeglasses, contact lenses and online vision tools

VANCOUVER, BC, June 7, 2021 /CNW/ - KITS Eyecare Ltd. (TSX: KITS) (OTCQX: KTYCF) ("KITS" or the "Company"), a rapidly growing, vertically integrated eyecare platform, today announced that it has shipped its first 100,000 pairs of prescription eyeglasses, which was achieved faster than any other optical retailer in history. This milestone comes on the heels of the Company's record revenue and customer growth in Q1 2021.

Roger Hardy, CEO of KITS commented on the achievement, "The journey to our first 100 million patients served begins with exceeding the expectations of the first 100,000 and beyond. We are thrilled with the progress we are making in our eyecare business, and shipping our 100,000th pair of eyeglasses within a year of establishing our state-of-the-art optical lab is truly remarkable. Health care customers are setting increasingly higher bars for the quality, selection and value they expect in optical, and we are heads down working to exceed them. We are delighted to be able to quickly deliver high quality glasses, premium contact lenses and online vision tools directly to our customers' homes at truly incredible prices, typically saving our customers 50-70%. In turn, patients and customers are rewarding us by referring friends and family to KITS.com, and this has and will continue to have a materially positive impact on our business."

KITS offers immediate access to high quality eyecare, maintaining one of the largest inventories of contact lenses and eyeglasses with over 400 styles and 125,000 frames in stock, including KITS' own brand and other designer styles, and growing. KITS also offers access to eye exams and other online vision tools 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. KITS is continuing to build out its state-of-the-art optical lab and is expanding manufacturing jobs right here in North America, while others continue to outsource manufacturing offshore.
