SGOCO Group, Ltd. signed a cooperative agreement with a Korean company -- Blue F.I. Group

SHENZHEN, China, Feb. 3, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- SGOCO Group, Ltd. (Nasdaq: SGOC) ("SGOCO" or the "Company"), a company focused on product design, distribution and brand development in the Chinese display and computer product market, today announced the Company has signed a cooperative agreement through its fully owned subsidiary - BOCA International Limited (BOCA) with a Korean company Blue F.I. Group. Under the terms of the agreement, BOCA authorized Blue F.I. Group to be the exclusive distributor of BOCA's phase change energy storage system in South Korea.

Blue F.I. Group was founded more than 20 years ago in South Korea. It focuses on construction, property, energy and electricity development in South Korea, China, Pakistan, United Arab Emirates, Egypt and other countries, with total investment value of more than $1.5 billion.

Installing the phase change energy storage system of BOCA can significantly reduce the cost of energy, besides, it can improve the durability of the original system and attribute to the environmental friendly business. As one of the most energy conservation effective countries in East Asia, Korea has tremendous demand of electronic energy saving products for both cold and heat air conditioning. Korea is now consuming a huge amount of electricity in its apartment buildings, entertainment areas and hotels. Introducing BOCA's phase change energy storage system in Korea can not only reduce electricity consumption, but also improve carbon emission control in the long term.

By now, Korea is still at the primary stage in terms of energy saving technologies and there are enormous potentialities in the Korean market, as our estimation, projects amounting to $0.2 billion in value are waiting to be established and improved.

Mr. Shi-Bin Xie, the Chef Executive Officer of SGOCO is delighted regarding the agreement with Blue F.I. Group and commented: "Cooperating with a Korean company is an initial achievement in our East Asia development plan. In the future, we will continue to move forward in the direction of development in Asia. "
