DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

History and Background

Smartag International, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Smartag,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), was formed as Theca Corporation on March 24, 1999 in Colorado.   On November 29, 2004, we merged with Art4Love, Inc., a Delaware corporation, into Art4Love, Inc. a Nevada corporation.  Art4love, Inc. attempted to sell and lease art to companies and individuals from artists’ collections worldwide.  On February 19, 2009, Art4Love changed its name to Smartag International, Inc.

In September 2013, the Company commenced operations specializing in traceability and mobile payments. We provide food traceability, RFID solutions, near field communications, track and trace services and micro payment services.

Amongst the list of accomplishments of the Smartag Group of companies include:

• Smartag provides innovative solutions and services to various industries in the private and government sectors through Internet and Mobility applications technologies to deliver our products and services to homes and businesses.
• Smartag has been selected by government sponsored Multimedia Development Corporation (MDEC) in Malaysia, the mandated organization to visualize, and drive Digital Malaysia to establish a Trusted Mobile Digital Wallet System based on Near Field Communication for Mobile Phones.
• Fully developed Smartrack™ EPCIS (Electronic Product Code Information Services), which culminated in the company receiving the ‘Best of e-Logistics Merit Award’ for Smartrack™ at the MSC Malaysia APICTA Awards 2010, and Merit Winner under the category of e-Logistics and Supply Chain Management at the Asia Pacific ICT Alliance Awards 2010. Smartrack™ is also the first in Asia Pacific, and the second in the world to pass all nine (9) conformance test branches conducted by MET Laboratories Inc. on behalf of GS1 International whereupon Smartrack™ was subsequently awarded with the EPC Global Software Certification Mark. This allows us to link up multiple supply chain logistics company systems together safely into one traceability system using RFID and Bar Codes.

• Developed comprehensive Food Traceability solution from Farm to table, using GPS, Internet and mobility technologies. The solution is suitable for products like Palm Oil, Frozen meat, high value herbs and health care products.

Overview

Since 2013, Smartag has been actively involved in traceability for manufacturing plants and in the food and beverage industry. Smartag realized a key potential growth area – healthy beverage products which it can source the raw materials which are of low calories but at the same time healthy and natural. The US market was overwhelmed with sodas, flavored water and energy drinks, but in recent years, the demand has been changing towards a healthier alternative.

In August 2015, Smartag brought in new management led by Mr. Chee Song Yap to lead its efforts in the beverage business by coupling its traceability technology to give reassurance and recall features. Realizing the key benefits of this rising demand, Smartag under its subsidiary, Essential Beverage Corp. (“EBC”) launched a refreshing line energy and functional beverage, Thrivida, that enhances the health of consumers which at the same time enables it to enter the traceable beverage business. http://thrivida.com/

Also, within the span of 24-36 months, it is our intention to market a range of beverage drinks for the United States and Asia Pacific. The goal: to create exhilarating beverages that are not only a healthier alternative to other drinks, but a new way for consumers to enjoy vitamin and ingredient enhanced beverages. At the same time, because the need for traceable drinks is increasing in the United States as well as China, Smartag is well positioned to take its core technology to test out in its own line of beverages worldwide.
