F J BENJAMIN LANDS EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS FOR AIRFREE PURIFIERS

IN INDONESIA

Singapore, 12 March 2021 - F J Benjamin Holdings (FJB), Southeast Asia's leading fashion retailer, said today that AIRFREE, Portugal's top air purifier company, has granted FJB exclusive rights to distribute its products in Indonesia.

FJB's Indonesian associate, PT Gilang Agung Persada, will distribute the purifiers through its own online platforms, and various retail stores including those selling electrical and baby products. The purifiers use a sterilisation process to inactivate 99.99% of airborne bacteria, viruses and other allergens that contribute to respiratory allergies and asthma.

FJB set up a Health and Wellness division and began to distribute AIRFREE products in Singapore last year and sales have met with expectations as consumers became more health conscious during the Covid-19 pandemic. FJB said it will be launching AIRFREE in Malaysia and Indonesia next month.

FJB Group Chief Executive Officer Nash Benjamin said: "The distribution rights couldn't be more timely given the urgency of the Covid-19 situation in Indonesia. We believe that AIRFREE's patented technology will go some way in easing the concerns of many Indonesians about their respiratory health."
