Vancouver, September 12, 2017 - Lomiko Metals Inc. (TSXV: LMR) (OTCQB: LMRMF) (FSE: DH8C) ("Lomiko") 100% owned subsidiary Lomiko Technologies has received approval for the SPIDER CHARGERR Trademark.

Allied Market Research indicates that the IoT market will reach $1Trillion USD by 2023 with the smart home and building automation market surpassing $35B by 2020 with a CAGR of 29%. This represents an enormous opportunity for both Lomiko and SHD.
"SHD has an incredible opportunity to participate in a burgeoning IoT and Smart Device market.", stated A. Paul Gill, Lomiko CEO., "Major companies such as Leviton, Legrand, Pass and Seymour and others have recognized this new market and have launched similar devices."
There are currently 130 million established households in North America and a healthy seasonally adjusted annualized rate of 1.3 million housing starts. In addition, offices, hotels and coffee shops are also potential markets for USB charging devices. If only one or two USB charging devices are installed in new homes and retro-fitted into current homes undergoing renovations, there will be a healthy demand for these IOT products. SHD plans to enter into negotiations to sell the Spider Charger and other related devices in North American markets with IOT distributors and builders. Lomiko will share its network of industry connections to help grow the venture and then enjoy the SHD equity multiplier without being burdened with any engineering, new product development, IP or associated marketing costs as the Spider charger and SHD suite of IoT products are rolled out.
