Yosen Signs Lease In Preparation for First Store Opening In New York City

HANGZHOU, China, Jan. 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Yosen Group, Inc. (stock symbol: YOSN) ("Yosen", or "the Company") today announced the signing of a five (5) year lease by its U.S. subsidiary, Yosen Trading Inc ("Yosen Trading"), in preparation for opening its first store in New York City. The store location is in Flushing, New York, and occupies an area of approximately 10,000 square feet. Yosen Trading has the right of first refusal to buy out the leased property. This will be Yosen's flagship store for its newly launched international trade and wholesale businesses relating to tile, kitchen cabinet, granite and marble products, primarily.

Flushing is a thriving community with a dense concentration of businesses and residences. The area serves as one of the largest intermodal transportation hubs in New York City with the No. 7 subway train, the Long Island Rail Road and twenty (20) bus routes. According to an evaluation report from The New York City Department of Transportation in January 2012, Flushing ranks as the fourth largest central business district in New York City. The intersection of Main Street and Roosevelt Avenue is the third busiest intersection in New York City, behind only Times and Herald Squares. Yosen's flagship store is only eight (8) minutes away by walking from Flushing's center, the Main Street Subway Station.

Yosen's CEO Mr. Zhenggang Wang commented, "We are thrilled to have the opportunity to open our first store at the prime location in Flushing, New York, and have moved our first step forward to the international market. Establishing international trade and wholesale business is Yosen's imperative strategy of this year. By leveraging our resources in China's renowned Yiwu Commodity City, we are ready to build our international business. Yosen will seek the continuing endorsement from and strategic cooperation with the Yiwu local government after we make more progress. We anticipate completing our New York store's renovation and other preparation work within one month. We will provide more details at that time."
