The agreement grants UITC exclusive rights to distribute OptiBiotix's SlimBiome® Medical proprietary weight management product in Singapore.

UITC (https://uitc.com.sg) is an established pharmaceutical and medical device marketing and distribution company founded in Singapore in 1963.

This agreement builds on the award OptiBiotix won for SlimBiome® Medical in Singapore in 2019 for the best weight management product of the year for Asia (RNS: 6 December 2019) and expands the geographical reach of the category with the addition of a fourth key geographical area (South East Asia) after successful launches in the UK (RNS: 24 April 2019), the Middle-East (RNS: 17 March 2020) and the USA (RNS: 22 September 2020).

Dr. Fred Narbel, Managing Director of OptiBiotix's prebiotics division, commented: "We are pleased to have signed an agreement with UITC to distribute our award-winning medical device in Singapore. UITC contacted us expressing an interest in our CE-marked medical device after carefully reviewing our peer-reviewed publications underlining the recognition and reputation OptiBiotix is establishing globally for its brands and scientific work."

Dexter Fung, Deputy Managing Director at UITC, commented: "As an established pharmaceutical company, our vision is to distribute products that meet the needs of consumers to achieve and maintain optimal quality of life. Obesity is on the rise in Singapore, increasing the risk of developing health problems like diabetes, heart disease and stroke. UITC feels that the award winning SlimBiome® Medical has great potential to fill the void of an effective weight control product in helping people to loose weight safely and effectively. In the last two decades, several weight loss medications and supplements have been withdrawn due to safety issues, we feel strongly that SlimBiome® Medical is the answer to  this need."
