Komet and Rona end their business relationship

MONTREAL, Nov. 10 /CNW/ -- 
New partnership agreements signed with other kitchen cabinet
 manufacturers 
will partially offset this loss and allow Komet to look optimistically
 to the future


MONTREAL, Nov. 10 /CNW Telbec/ - Komet Manufacturers Inc. ("Komet"
 TSX-V: AQD) has announced the end of its business partnership with
 Rona, including the Réno-Dépôt banner, for the manufacture of bathroom
 furniture. The agreement in question, signed over five years ago,
 represented 38% of Komet's sales.


"While it's difficult to quickly replace a big client like Rona, we are
 happy to announce to our clients and shareholders that Komet is already
 positioned as a new leader in kitchen cabinet manufacturing. As such we
 have signed new agreements with leading contractors like Samcon, Les
 entreprises Samig, and Habitations Voyer. These will gradually replace
 the agreement with Rona, allowing us to continue our operations with
 the optimism and enthusiasm Komet is known for," said company president
 and CEO François Nadeau.
