Currently, the Company is engaged in the following projects:





  1. Hero Wellness Systems Inc. and
  2. YER Brands Inc.




  1. Hero Wellness Systems Inc.

Hero Wellness Systems Inc. ("Hero Wellness") -Pursuant to the terms and conditions of a shareholder's agreement dated in September 29, 2018, the Company entered into a joint venture relationship originally for the purpose of importing, selling and distributing products offered by Vitalizer International of Switzerland. However, due to supplies and other processing issues, Hero Wellness has sourced its own supplier and is now importing, selling and distributing its own products. The Company's participation in the joint venture is 55%. The Company's role is to provide certain services, including general management and day to day operations of the joint venture. Currently, the joint venture is comprised of the following ownership: 55% the Company with the balance of ownership held by two non-controlling owners.

The Company was previously focused almost exclusively on the B2B market segment of the lifestyle and healthcare markets. B2B clients consisted of spas and salons, hotels and hospitality and entertainment venues in the United States. Covid has led to a near total collapse of B2B customer interest due to changes in disinfection between users and other safety protocols relating to Covid 19. This has led to a refocus on the B2C segment, focusing on direct to consumer sales through the company's webstore www.herochroma.com and additional websites operated by the company.

Hero Wellness Systems Inc. is dependent upon a functioning supply chain, as it sources finished products from its suppliers in China. Hero Wellness sees this as a risk-factor and is looking for alternative suppliers at this time. Thus far, the supplier has never experienced inventory shortfall, however increased logistics rates pose a risk to increased cost of goods sold. Additionally, due to its targeting retail customers through internet sales, as well as key account management to gain corporate customers, Hero Wellness is not dependent on singular customers. However, the company's products are considered luxury lifestyle products and thus are dependent on healthy consumer spending behavior. Slowdowns in consumer confidence could have a negative impact on purchasing behavior of these types of products across the economy. Additionally, the past 18 months have seen significant price erosion in the luxury massage chair segment, with several generic Chinese competitive products entering the market. This led to significant price pressures in this segment.

Hero Wellness Systems operates in a crowded market place. Several providers of massage chair products from low-end to high-end exist. Hero Wellness Systems Inc. operates in the high end-spectrum, competing against a number of established companies. The company aims to differentiate itself from existing providers through a higher level of service, including white glove delivery and significantly faster delivery times (through a US based in-sourced logistics operation).

  2. YER Brands Inc.

On May 8th, 2020 Sustainable Projects Group Inc. signed a letter of intent with inventors of the Soy-yer Dough product line, Sawyer and Samantha Sparks, to purchase all production rights, know-how, trademarks and manufacturing equipment of Soy-yer Dough. Soy-yer Dough is a soy and corn-based, gluten free modelling clay. It is estimated that up 6% of the US population suffers from some form of gluten intolerance, with approximately 1% of the US population suffering from the more severe form, Celiac Disease.

The product gained initial commercial success when it was featured on the TV Show ABC's Shark Tank and was named as one of the most innovative product inventions by college students in the New York Times newspaper. Since its invention, the product has been sold in all 50 states in the United States, and to a smaller extent internationally, both online and in retail locations. However, with limited production capabilities and resources, growth prospects were limited.

Sustainable Projects Group has formed YER Brands Inc. as a wholly-owned subsidiary to establish increased production and distribution capabilities of the Yer Dough product line. Inventor and face of the brand, Sawyer Sparks, has agreed to take on the CEO position, while his wife and co-inventor Samantha Sparks will be responsible for production. Production facilities will be co-located with one of the Company's portfolio companies, Cormo USA Inc. manufacturing facility to benefit from raw material sourcing, logistics and marketing infrastructure synergies. As of May 8th, the new company had begun site improvement at the Rushville production site and shipped first retail-ready products by mid-May 2020. Currently the company does not produce retail ready products as the lack of production facilities, and significant problems in upscaling the production process will require significant development processes.

Previously Soy-yer Dough was sold through the Online B2C, Brick and Mortar, and Scholastic Market. Over the past years, predominantly driven by limited production capacities, a heavy focus was placed on the scholastic market. With COVID-19 related shutdowns, that market has been severely impacted and is currently virtually non-existent even as schools have reopened across the United States.

Upon production start, YER Brands Inc. had hoped place initial focus on low-hanging online sales opportunities and upon increasing production capabilities later in 2020 in the scholastic market. At this time these opportunities have no materlialized. Management does not anticipate significant revenues from the scholastic sales channel until future periods.

There is a multitude of modeling clays available on the market, Soy-yer Dough shines as a "Made in the USA" and a "Gluten-Free" product with a long track record of positive reviews in the US media. Management believes the product is well positioned for market expansion in the near term. Additionally, YER Brands Inc is in the planning stages for additional, value-added products that involve Soy-yer Dough modeling clay to further the product portfolio and potential revenue and profit generation.

The majority of raw ingredients required for the formulation of the product are widely available and produced in the United States. The company does not anticipate supply chain issues for the main ingredients of the Soy-Yer Dough line of products. Additional raw materials are widely available, and several sources of suppliers exist. The Company is not dependent on one single source of supplies for any of its ingredients and packaging materials and management sees limited supply chain and sourcing risks.

At this time, Yer Brands Inc. is searching for a production partner able to upscale the process and to comply with more stringent regulatory requirements
