Marketing Strategy
Approaches have been made to FGR from a number of avenues that include trade shows, direct enquiries and third party referrals. While these have been both useful and promising, the Company recognises the need to appoint serious and experienced marketing agents to accelerate the process of market penetration rather then rely on organic growth supervised by the FGR staff. Discussion along these lines have commenced and the Company is optimistic that it will soon have news on this front, in recognition of the need to establish a strong market presence as soon as possible.

The feedstock for the Cell is the Sri Lankan vein graphite, which is being sourced from third party mines and very soon from the mine shafts being developed by the Company. Internal and third party tests have confirmed that the graphene is of high purity demonstrating the following parameters;
This is my favorite one.
Samples are Being Distributed to Potential Customers Commencing late in 2016, FGR has been in discussion with a number of parties from a range of companies and institutions that have made enquiries as to the availability of samples of graphene for testing in their manufacturing enterprises. Some of these companies have already been using graphene sourced from either their own facilities or from third parties, while others have just started to consider whether they may benefit from using graphene in their process. So far FGR has received enquiries and some introductory sales from businesses involved in; • Automotive manufacturing
• Aeronautics
Could this be Ford and Boeing as per the Far East Capital weekly Newsletter.
FGR could find many opportunities at its doorstep over the next few months as these expressions of interest are followed through. Examples of potential buyers that FGR met at the conference were paint and coating manufacturers, ink manufacturers, automotive component manufacturers and even aircraft manufacturers i.e Boeing. Industry is starting to wake up to the opportunity. Ford is on the cusp of using graphene in its cars
