LOOPShare Receives Approval from Transport Canada and Imports First Shipment of Scooters for the Vancouver Loop Field Trial. Loop Scooters Deployment Targets a Minimum of 110 Units in 2017

LOOPShare (TSXV:LOOP), a global provider of electric scooter shared fleet services and technology, today announced that the first batch of scooters was received on January 5th for its Loop Zone Operation field trial in the city of Vancouver, Canada. The Loop scooters importation was made possible after LOOPShare secured Transport Canada permission.
As quoted in the press release:

“The plan was to receive these scooters in August 2016. However, Transport Canada homologation requirements dictated a process that successfully concluded last month”, said Anwar Sukkarie, President and Chief Executive Officer of LOOPShare. “With these scooters available for a field trial in Vancouver, LOOPShare aims at a commercial Loop service launch during the second quarter of this year.”
A minimum of 110 Loop scooters are planned for Vancouver in 2017. Field trials typically conclude after a 3-month term followed by a commercial rollout of the Loop service.
