Proguard Acquisition Corp. Receives Award Recommendation for Multiyear Contract From School Board of Broward County, the U.S.’s Sixth Largest Public School System

Fort Lauderdale, FL - (ACCESSWIRE - October 14, 2013) - Proguard Acquisition Corp. (PGRD), a business to business (B2B) reseller of general line office and business products, announced today that its Random Source subsidiary has received a recommendation to be awarded a three-year contract from the School Board of Broward County, to serve as a supplier of office and business products. This latest multi-year contract follows the three year contract with Jackson Health System, one of the largest hospitals in the United States, we announced in June 2013. The School Board of Broward County (SBBC) is the sixth largest public school system in the United States, the second largest in the state of Florida and the largest fully accredited K-12 and adult school district in the nation. SBBC has over 260,000 students and approximately 175,000 adult students in 232 schools and education centers and 83 charter schools that we can now service.

David Kriegstein, CEO of Proguard Acquisition Corp., commented, "This contract is exciting for many obvious reasons. Not only does this contract increase our business and revenue stream, it validates us as a true competitor in our industry. Government and educational agencies are beginning to recognize that they need customization to increase efficiencies. As part of our value added service, we quickly and efficiently customize features via our web tool which in turn creates deeper discounts and a net savings to potential customers. The results when new customers begin purchasing are more efficient operations which results in a savings on their administrative expenses. We believe these benefits are what are driving the new government and education business. As we move forward, we hope that being recognized by one of the country's largest hospital systems, as well as one of the country's largest school systems, additional doors will open to other large and profitable opportunities in the near future."
