Byrna Eyes South American Market Via Distribution Deal With This 64-Year-Old Argentine Firearms Manufacturer - Byrna Technologies (NASDAQ:BYRN)

Byrna Technologies Inc. BYRN has agreed with Bersa SA to distribute its entire range of less-lethal personal self-defense products throughout South America.

Bryan Ganz, CEO of Byrna, stated, "We look forward to working with Bersa to penetrate the very important South American market, a market that is both larger than the U.S. market and in greater need of a safe and effective non-lethal alternative for consumers that cannot obtain or legally carry a firearm."
