Vancouver, B.C., April 4, 2022 – Solarvest BioEnergy Inc. (“Solarvest”, or the “Company”) (TSX-V:SVS), (“Solarvest” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce that its wholly-owned division Eversea America Inc. (“Eversea”) has signed an agreement with E3Live, one of the organic industry’s premier superfood brands. E3Live has agreed to introduce and market Eversea’s organic omega-3 DHA products to its
customer base.
“We get approached all of the time by companies who want us to re-sell their products, and we reject nearly every one of them because they don’t meet our very rigorous standards,” said Michael Saiber, founder and CEO of E3Live. “I heard about what Eversea was offering and tried it, as I had never come across a USDA certified organic, plant-based omega-3 DHA product. Immediately, my body recognized it as an important and necessary addition to my diet. I believe our customers will be very interested in this product as well. The best testimonial about Eversea’s powder that I can give is that I take it every single day.”
This initial agreement is for Nanuq TM omega-3 DHA powder, which complements E3Live’s Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA), a nutrient-dense aqua-botanical (blue-green algae). E3Live has amassed a list of dedicated customers over the last 27 years in the certified organic nutritional algae business.
“Given E3Live’s stature in the organic industry when it comes to algae-based superfoods, this partnership is an exciting endorsement for our organic omega-3 DHA product,” said Gerri Greenham, CEO of Solarvest. “Both companies are very committed to providing the highest quality algae products in the world, and being able to offer E3Live customers our algae and algae-based products is a perfect fit and ideal
opportunity.”
About E3Live
Widely regarded as one of the organic industry’s premier superfood brands, E3Live has been selling organic health products and aqua-botanicals since 1995. The company’s signature superfoods, E3Live and BrainON, are both nutrient-dense aqua-botanical nutritional algae harvested from the pristine waters of Klamath Lake in Oregon. E3Live employs the highest quality harvesting methods, safety standards, and purity testing, in addition to adhering to strict Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) in order to maintain
USDA organic certification and Kosher certification.
About Eversea
Eversea has developed the world’s first organic omega-3 DHA from algae. It is both USDA and EU certified organic, and it has received Glyphosate Residue Free certification from The Detox Project. The product is also vegan, gluten-free, free from major allergens, and tested for heavy metals and other contaminants. The omega-3 active ingredient in the products is patented and patent-pending in commercially relevant/important countries globally. The patent has already been issued in Australia, India, and Japan, and the Solarvest patent also covers the production of EPA.
The company’s organic algal-based products have natural advantages over fish oil, which is processed from dwindling sea harvests. Eversea’s products are based on marine microalgae and their ability to produce high levels of long-chain omega-3 fatty acid oil, primarily docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Algae production is sustainable, and sustainability is a growing concern for the market.
