COLUMBIA, S.C., July 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CMARK International Inc., (OTC Pink Sheets: CMKI), a leading Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) provider of facility and logistic support for federal government institutions, announces its agreement with CENTERCORE Group Inc., for exclusive sales rights of the CENTERCORE line to the US Government.

CENTERCORE Group Inc., an office furniture manufacturer started in 1978, has made it clear that the intent of this agreement is to offer exclusive US Government sales rights for the entire CENTERCORE line to CMARK International, Inc., with an exception of 3 specific house accounts.

The CENTERCORE product line had a history of annual sales revenue of approximately $30 - $60 million from 1978 to 2000 with approximately 30 percent being sales to US government institutions. During the period from 2000-2005 the brand went through a series of changes and is now under new ownership effective 2005.

CENTERCORE's Management Team is headed by Ralph Berger, who has over 25 years of experience with the CENTERCORE line, and is located in the corporate offices in Atlanta Georgia. They also have a 160,000 sq/ft manufacturing plant in Marked Tree, Arkansas. CENTERCORE believes in promoting American products and strives to buy or manufacture all of its products in the USA.

"Obtaining exclusive rights for selling CENTERCORE products to the US Government gives us a very large opportunity to represent a major manufacturer and build on further revenues in the furniture sector in 2007 and beyond," said Charles W. Jones, Jr., President and CEO of CMARK International. "We believe that partnering with CENTERCORE will raise our product profile and we shall be able to benefit from its quarter century of experience with government institutions."

In addition to other responsibilities, as a part of the agreement, CMARK will utilize its best efforts to solicit orders for CENTERCORE product lines from US Government facilities and provide a direct sales force for CENTERCORE products. CENTERCORE in turn, as the manufacturer, will be responsible for providing design and space planning services, shipping, and installation services for the products at each project location.
