The purpose of this partnership is to build and operate a communitystorefronts.com e-commerce solutions service for the Middle East and targeted Asian countries. The service will be setup and operated from the SPI headquarters in Vancouver in conjunction with Jzala Investments Group from their offices located in Saudi Arabia.

"Our partnership with Jzala Investments Group allows us to implement a significant portion of our international business strategy," says Catherine Clarke, President and CEO of Strategic Profits, Inc. "Jzala, initially, is bringing at least 600 Middle Eastern companies that are ready to move forward with SPI's e-business solutions which will provide a significant positive impact on our revenues in late Q4."
