Vancouver, BC, December 4, 2007- VendTek Systems
Inc. (TSXV: VSI) ("VendTek" or "The Company"),
a leading provider of software for prepaid service distribution,
is pleased to announce that it has licensed its e-Fresh™
solution for the distribution of prepaid products in
Sudan to Privinvest Holding SAL. Privinvest Holding
SAL is an associated company to Vendtek's license partner
in the United Arab Emirates-One Prepay.
Sudan, with a population of 40 million, has about 8
million mobile phone users (or 20% of the population).
According to Sudanese Governmental and Telecom Sources,
The market is growing very rapidly and should reach
20 million users by the end of 2009.
Privinvest will work with merchants in the country to
convert their hard card distribution to VendTek's electronic
e-Fresh™ distribution system. VendTek will receive
a license fee based on the number of transactions processed.
"We are pleased that our partner is ready to expand
to Sudan. With approximately 7 million prepaid users
today, the market is larger than the Canadian market,"
said Doug Buchanan, Chief Executive Officer of VendTek.
"This is another step in our international expansion.
Our footprint for e-Fresh™ includes Canada, United
States, United Arab Emirates, China and Sudan."
