LIFE CHANGING NEWS for $QWTR TODAY!
QUEST WATER PROVIDES CORPORATE UPDATE
September 20, 2018 - 9:10 AM EDT
VANCOUVER, CANADA, Sept. 20, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- QUEST WATER GLOBAL, INC. (OTC Pink: QWTR) ("Quest" and/or the "Company"), an innovative water technology company and developer of the solar-powered AQUAtap™ water purification, desalination, and distribution technology and WEPS™ WaterMaker Atmospheric Water Extraction and Purification System, announced today an update on current business activities and ongoing operations.
Financial Reporting Requirements and Continuous Disclosure Obligations
On April 23, 2015, the British Columbia Securities Commission (the “BCSC”) issued a cease trade order (the “CTO”) against the Company that applies to investors in Canada. On October 12, 2016, the Company obtained a partial revocation of the CTO in order to complete a private placement financing, raising sufficient funds to prepare and file all of its outstanding disclosure documents including quarterly and annual reports. Although it has taken longer than expected to complete the financing, the Company continues to work diligently towards achieving compliance with its financial reporting requirements and continuous disclosure obligations in both the U.S. and Canada, which will eventually allow the Company to obtain a full revocation of the CTO.
Cape Town, South Africa
The City of Cape Town is currently experiencing its worst drought since 1904. In order to ease the pressure placed on the water supply, municipalities across the Western Cape continue to implement water restrictions. These restrictions heavily impact commercial and industrial users who are required to reduce their water use by 45%. The failure to comply constitutes an offence under the City’s water by-laws.
In response to this, Quest has partnered with a Cape Town organization to market the Company’s products to commercial, industrial, and institutional customers throughout the Western Cape. Together with its partner, the Company recently submitted several proposals allowing businesses to become water independent by installing and implementing various configurations of the Company’s cost-effective AQUAtap™ system utilizing ground water and seawater sources.
Additionally, the Company recently shipped a WEPS™ WaterMaker Atmospheric Water Extraction & Purification system to Cape Town for demonstration purposes. The Company and its partner intend to launch a marketing campaign of the WEPS™ WaterMaker product within the Western Cape, including a website committed solely to this product.
Colombia, Ecuador, Panama and Cuba
Quest recently appointed a new distributor in Colombia to market and sell the Company’s full line of products. The distributor was granted exclusivity in Colombia based on a pre-paid initial order and on a non-exclusive basis in Ecuador, Panama, and Cuba. The initial order of WEPS™ WaterMaker systems has shipped and is expected arrive in Bogota in October 2018. The distributor is developing several sales opportunities, especially within the vicinity of the Caribbean coast of Colombia.
Republic of Haiti
Further to the Company’s press release dated September 8, 2016, Quest is making significant progress with its Build-Own-Operate Business Model. Together with its Haitian partner, the Company is in the process of completing the registration of a new joint venture company in the Caribbean nation. This company plans to supply, install and operate 50 AQUAtap™ systems for the provision and vending of purified drinking water in rural communities within Haiti. Quest’s executives met with and submitted a comprehensive proposal to the Government of Haiti in February 2018 for the formation a Public-Private Partnership (“PPP”) which will assist in the execution of this undertaking. The Company is now negotiating the terms of the PPP to supply clean water to 200,000 people within marginalized rural communities.
In addition, the Company recently shipped a WEPS™ WaterMaker Atmospheric Water Extraction & Purification systems to Haiti for demonstration purposes.
Democratic Republic of Congo
The Company recently received an opportunity to sell AQUAtap™ water purification & distribution systems into the Democratic Republic of Congo in partnership with a large corporation in the capital city of Kinshasa. Quest, together with its proposed partner, is working on the initial pilot project which proposes the installation of one, 80,000 liter per day freshwater AQUAtap™ within a rural community close to the capital city. Once the pilot project is deemed a success, this opportunity has the potential to see further AQUAtap™ installations throughout the country.
Republic of Ghana
The Company, together with its local partner in Accra, are in the submission stage of a proposal to the Government of the Republic of Ghana through The Water Resources Commission and the Ghana Water Company (formerly Ghana Water and Sanitation Corporation) to supply, install, and operate 50 AQUAtap™ systems for the provision and vending of purified drinking water within rural communities of the country.
Canadian First Nations
The Company is working closely with Chief Gibby Jacob & Associates (CGJA) to introduce Quest’s entire line of products to First Nations communities across Canada, representing more than 1.3 million indigenous people. CGJA currently works with corporations and First Nations offering solutions for positive change. These solutions are necessary to build First Nations communities capable of thriving into future generations. CGJA recently launched their corporate website, www.chiefgibbyjacob.com, which will be utilized to promote their partner’s technologies including those of the Company. Quest Water and CGJA are working towards finalizing a partnership agreement which will strengthen their mutual interests.
Advisory Board
Further to the Company’s press release dated September 29, 2016, Quest continues to strengthen its Advisory Board. The Company now features a 6-person Advisory Board that spans many segments of business, indigenous affairs, and the water industry. The newest addition and contributor to the Board is Skwxwú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation) hereditary Chief Gilbert ‘Gibby’ Jacob. Chief Jacob is one of the most influential First Nations leaders in Canada and was twice recognized as a significant member of society receiving both the Queens Diamond Jubilee Medal in 2012 and the Senate 150 Anniversary Medal in 2018.
Chief Gibby Jacob helped broker the deal that established the Squamish Lil'wat Cultural Centre in Whistler, British Columbia as well as the Olympic land legacy. Chief Jacob represented Indigenous Peoples on the Vancouver Organizing Committee's Board of Directors for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games.

Quest Water To Focus On New Business Development Strategy
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Quest Water Global, Inc. (QWTR) ("Quest" and/or "Quest Water" and or "Company"), an innovative water technology company, and developer of the solar-powered water purification and desalination technology AQUAtap™ and the WEPS™ Atmospheric Water Extraction and Purification System, announced today that the Company has launched a new business development strategy in response to emerging market opportunities and evolution of its business model and technology over the past year. After numerous and extensive negotiations in dealing directly with governments in developing nations, Quest Water has determined that its best approach is to attract local partners on the ground in these countries.
"Our new "Build, Own, Operate" business model allows us to collaborate and create new business partnerships with local investors and partners to establish self-serve water vending businesses, and micro-scale and full-scale water bottling facilities," said John Balanko, Quest Water CEO & President. "In addition, we can offer bulk water production for sale to residential communities, agriculture businesses, and manufacturing enterprises."
The new business strategy is actively being pursued with several local potential partners in the U.S., the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean. The Company's AQUAtap™ installation in Angola provided Quest with much attention on the world stage. As a result, the Company attracted interest from individuals, corporations, NGO's (Non-Government Organizations) and governments in numerous countries worldwide. The Company's goal now is to secure partnerships or joint ventures with local investors and partners in the above mentioned target markets.
The Company's innovative water solutions have been re-engineered to streamline the water purification process, reduce manufacturing and maintenance costs, while at the same time increasing production. Over the past year, the freshwater AQUAtap™ system has been engineered to produce four times as much water than its original design. This freshwater system now has the capacity to produce 80,000 liters per day from a polluted fresh water source utilizing a more robust ultrafiltration membrane, pre-filters, and ultraviolet sterilization. The Company's new brackish and salt water systems have also been re-designed to provide a minimum of twice the production over the previous Reverse Osmosis systems.
"Water shortages, poor sanitation, and a lack of access to clean water sources continue to be a major global concern," said Peter Miele, Quest Water Global Co-Founder and Executive Vice President. "We believe by providing an alternative, sustainable source of pure water at a low cost and with the smallest environmental impact in decentralized, turnkey solutions is part of the answer to this growing global crisis. For more information on the global water problem and how our technology can help in a local meaningful way visit our website at www.QuestWaterSolutions.com"

Quest Water (QWTR) Signs Agreement To Build And Operate Atmospheric Water Bottling Plant In Cuba
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 15, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Quest Water Global, Inc. (QWTR) ("Quest" and/or "Quest Water" and or "Company"), an innovative water technology company, and developer of the solar-powered water purification and desalination technology AQUAtap™ and the WEPS™ Atmospheric Water Extraction and Purification System, announced today that the Company has signed a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") to build and operate a commercial water bottling facility in Havana, Cuba utilizing atmospheric water as the source. The atmospheric water bottling facility will be the first known water supply and bottling plant in the western hemisphere obtaining its water source through the extraction of atmospheric humidity. The facility expects to commence with an output capacity of 1.1 million liters of water per month.
The Cuban water bottling operation will be a Joint Venture ("JV") between Quest Water Global, Euroven Financial Group ("Euroven"), a syndicate of individuals, and atmospheric clean water pioneer Thomas W. Angell, who has been working for the past decade to make innovative technologies available that provide safe drinking water. Euroven will provide the funding capacity and ability to expand the business model on a Caribbean-wide scale, while Angell brings his expertise and knowhow of delivering clean water solutions to water scarce regions worldwide. Quest Water will provide access to, and maintenance of, the Company's proprietary WEPS™ technology, be the certifiers of the quality and integrity of the produced water, and the trainers of the facility operators and technicians."
"The conditions in Cuba are ideal for a commercial atmospheric water bottling facility," said John Balanko, Quest Water CEO & President. "The atmospheric humidity in the country is predictable and we believe that clean water can be harvested in large quantities on a consistent basis from ambient air at the proposed plant."
The planned facility's state-of-the-art bottling equipment will allow the Joint Venture to commence operations with a production rate estimated at approximately 12,000 bottles per hour in the 500ml format. This equates to 96,000 bottles per day or 88,000 cases of 24, 500ml bottles per month. It is anticipated that four DX150 WEPS™ systems will be installed. Together, these systems can produce approximately 40,000 liters of water per day based on the average climatic conditions in Havana. The bottling facility will also utilize 100% biodegradable bottles that break down completely within six months after use with no residual effects to the environment.
"The growing global demand for pure, clean bottled water offers significant revenue opportunities in the region," said Peter Miele, Quest Water Global Co-Founder and Executive Vice President. "Our WEPS™ technology competes economically and environmentally with conventional bottled water plants and desalination facilities. In addition to creating a sustainable and reliable water source, the WEPS™ process does so with low power consumption, is a chemical free product with no harmful by-products, has no impact on local natural water resources, and comes with minimal maintenance requirements."
The proposed Joint Venture intends to open a commercial atmospheric bottling plant in Havana, Cuba within the next 6 months. The JV will be owned 60% by Euroven, 12.5% by Thomas W. Angell, 12.5% by Quest Water Global, and 15% by a syndicate of individuals. The parties will now work toward signing a definitive agreement to move the project forward.
About Euroven Financial Corporation
Euroven Financial Corporation provides funding capabilities and the ability to expand the business model on a Caribbean-wide scale, with the exception of Haiti, through the company's vast business network. Other disciplines include retail and wholesale contacts for the marketing and sales of the finished product.

Quest Water Global (QWTR) Proposing Clean Water Solution In Gambia
VANCOUVER, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Quest Water Global, Inc. (QWTR) ("Quest" and/or "Quest Water" and or "Company"), an innovative water technology company, and developer of the AQUAtap™ Community Drinking Water Station and WEPSTM Atmospheric Water Extraction and Purification System, announced today that the Company is responding to a Request for Proposal (“RFP”) from the Kunta Kinteh Family Foundation to provide a clean water solution for The Village of Jufureh, Republic of The Gambia.
The Kunta Kinteh Family Foundation, with offices in Gambia and the United States, recently invited Quest Water to respond to its Request for Proposal. The objective of the RFP is two-fold: first, to provide a clean source of drinking water for the 2,800 residents of The Village of Jufureh, Gambia, and second, to provide a clean water source for the many International tourists who travel to The Village to visit the birthplace of Kunta Kinteh. In response to the RFP, the Company is pleased to submit a proposal which will include the use of its AQUAtap Community Drinking Water and Distribution Stations to provide a sustainable source of water to both the residents and visitors of the Village.
"We are grateful and honored to have been invited to submit a proposal to the Kunta Kinteh Family Foundation. Gambia is one of the many West African nations that has been in our sights for their lack of clean water, but this RFP allows us to accelerate our potential entry into the country,” said John Balanko, Quest Water CEO & President. “This also affords us the opportunity to commence dialogue with The Gambian Government and governments of neighboring countries, Mali, Senegal, Guinea, Ivory Coast, and Mauritania. We are excited with the prospect of proposing our AQUAtap technology to the Foundation as a sustainable solution for the clean water requirements of the villagers. The opportunity was introduced to us by Mr. Thomas Angell, who heads up our Joint Venture partnership, Global Air Water Resources.”
About Kunta Kinteh Family Foundation
The Kunta Kinteh Family Foundation includes all of the descendants of the late slave, Kunta Kinteh. The Foundation is active in Gambia and the United States. The Kunta Kinteh Family Foundation seeks to improve the lives of those in the West African Village of Jufureh by building a strong infrastructure and providing better opportunities for tourism. Plans also include building a research center to help provide clean drinking water for those in Jufureh and to support school children and, hopefully, to build a health care center.

Quest Water Global (QWTR) Releases ‘World Without Water’ Video
Quest Water Global, Inc. (QWTR) ("Quest" and/or "Quest Water" and or "Company"), an innovative water technology company, and developer of the AQUAtap™ Community Drinking Water Station and WEPSTM Atmospheric Water Extraction and Purification System, announced today that the Company has officially released 'World Without Water', a video developed and created to draw global attention to the worldwide water crisis. The video, which is being disseminated and publicized by Viral Network Inc. (“Viral”) and Megacast Media (“Megacast”), focuses on the impact the shortage of safe drinking water is having on the world's most vulnerable populations.
According to the United Nations' World Health Organization unsafe water is responsible for more than three billion cases of illness and five million deaths annually. The death rate for children from the lack of clean drinking water alone is estimated at one every twenty seconds. The video is intended to build mass awareness of the global water crisis and to encourage people to take action by donating to a clean water specific charity.
"We are extremely pleased to play a small part in raising awareness for this untold crisis of our time that kills millions of vulnerable people every year," said John Balanko, Quest Water CEO & President. "'World Without Water' essentially shows us that if we sit back and do nothing the water crisis will only get worse and millions will continue to die. The video was created to draw attention to the issue in a visually appealing and powerful way, and has the potential to get shared extensively through social media networks worldwide.”
The video is available free of charge on YouTube and can be viewed at . Viewers are encouraged to take action themselves and are invited to visit http://www.questwatersolutions.com/take-action to view the video, donate to a water charity, calculate their own water footprint, and discover 100s of water saving tips.
"The global water crisis is something every one of us should be concerned about, and we believe our network of socially conscientious media will be interested in sharing it with their audiences worldwide," said David Duggan, President of Viral Network Inc. “The video has been created to be both engaging and accessible to a wide range of audiences. The goal is to raise awareness. With any luck it will raise much needed funds for the water charities doing whatever they can to solve the problem.”
