The letter went on to state that it is his intention to expand distribution throughout Central America and into selected countries in South America over the next several months. The letter of credit for the first order is currently being negotiated and is expected shortly.
Commenting on the order, ATG Chairman and CEO Lawrence J. Brady said, "This order represents the most significant development in and proof of the turnaround of ATG. The planning and work which we have done for the last two and one half years is bearing fruit."
He went on to say, "two ATG representatives have been working on location in Central America for more than three months to negotiate and secure this order.
