Genesis Electronics Group, Inc. announced that it has signed a binding exclusive manufacturing partnership agreement with Bart Manufacturing Inc. to build Glid units. Glid and Bart also confirmed that production of the all-electric Glid units is projected to start at the end of the summer once final joint design for manufacturing activities are completed, at Bart's world-class manufacturing facility in Stockton, CA, where they have provided engineered solutions in Technology, Automotive, Aerospace, Industrial Systems, Consumer Electronics and Solar Industries for companies. This agreement is broad-based and comprehensive, covering planned volumes, manufacturing costs and quality metrics required to meet the company's first projected milestone to complete the first 10 sets of Beta units that will be deployed in the field to prove out the durability, reliability, and quality of the product.

The learnings from the Beta Program will be applied to Glid and Bart's commercialization program's lifecycle through29 which will cover all stages, including the critical planning and launch phases. This partnership leverages the deep experience Glid executives have working with Bart on previous projects at other companies and will provide opportunities to increase volumes with the Glid units or other Glider architecture variants, as well as collaboration on efficiencies in the production process that may drive post-launch manufacturing, material, component, and cost innovations.
