(OTC PINK:ALKM), a publicly traded holding company, announced today that its wholly-owned subsidiary Bell Food and Beverage, Inc. had received a large initial hand sanitizer Purchase Order from the Oregon State Coronavirus Task Force.

The Oregon State Coronavirus Task Force's initial order of hand sanitizer is expected to go directly to front line and first responders, with its main priority being hospitals. The Company's hand sanitizer is an 80% 'alcohol-based' sanitizer manufactured in accordance with the US FDA & World Health Organization guidelines and is effective agents against COVID-19 as well as other germs.

According to Robert Eakle, CEO 'We are pleased to be assisting Oregon State and others with their global fight against the COVID-19 pandemic and look forward to continuing to make a difference amid the COVID-19 crisis. We are now well positioned to meet the growing demand for sanitizing products essential to all public and private establishments to comply with health and safety standards and guidelines imposed by the federal government. We recently received FDA approval, received a liquor license, and joined the Oregon Board of Pharmacy as a compounder, and have registered several of our products under our national drug code numbers.'

Eakle continued by saying, 'We especially want to thank our House of Representatives elected official, Bill Post who has been instrumental in this process and we are pleased to have been picked by the State of Oregon to be a provider of hand sanitizer for front line and first responders, with initial main priority being hospitals.'

According to a newly published report by Fortune Business Insights™, titled, 'Impact of COVID-19 on the Global Hand Sanitizer Market Size, Share, Industry Analysis and Regional Forecast 2019-2026.', 'The hand sanitizer market size was anticipated to reach USD 1.35 billion in 2020 before the Covid-19 outbreak. However, on account of the present scenario, it is likely to generate USD 1.87 billion this year. In addition to this, it would rise tremendously from an annual growth rate of 5.06% to 45.71% in 2020.'
