NEW YORK, April 14, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Breathe eCig Corp. (OTCQB: BVAP) ("Breathe" or "the Company"), the electronic cigarette industry innovator and pioneer, today announced the execution of a distribution agreement with a major New York City based distributor ("the Distributor") capable of placing Breathe's proprietary ECIG devices, as well as complimentary products, in as many as 5,000 unique stores and locations within the New York City Metropolitan area ("N.Y.

Under the terms of the agreement, Breathe has committed sufficient capital to the Distributor to purchase dedicated vans wrapped in the corporate logo, display cases, marketing materials and T-Shirts.

In addition, the Company plans to actively support its brand with an aggressive marketing plan encompassing, but not limited to: local and national media partnerships, publicity, event sponsorships and grass roots sampling programs throughout the N.Y. Metro area.
On April 2, 2015, Breathe announced a manufacturing agreement with Hong Kong-based The KMG Group ("KMG" or "the Manufacturer") for an initial product order exceeding $300,000 USD. As of today's date, KMG is already in production of over 100,000 units for Breathe and the Company anticipates that a substantial portion of this inventory will be allocated pursuant to this distribution agreement. The Company will commit to updating shareholders at the end of each month the approximate number of N.Y. Metro area stores and locations carrying its product(s), commencing June 30, 2015.
"Breathe is fortunate to have partnered with a distributor with such extensive relationships in the N.Y. Metro area," said Breathe's CEO and founder, Josh Kimmel. "Management has worked diligently to ensure the timely delivery of product, display cases and complimentary materials so that June 1, 2015 is extremely successful.
