HOUSTON, Oct. 14, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Guardion Health Sciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: GHSI) (“Guardion” or the “Company”), a clinical nutrition and diagnostics company that develops and markets clinically supported nutrition, medical foods, supplements, and medical devices, announces today two key initiatives designed to both improve the customer experience and engagement, as well as to reduce costs throughout the Company.
Guardion has entered into an agreement to terminate the lease on its San Diego, California corporate office and main warehouse facility, which was utilized primarily for the Company’s ocular products business. This agreement will take effect at the end of October and is expected to reduce Guardion’s overhead costs. Guardion is currently in the process of moving its product inventory to a third-party logistics provider. In addition, the Company has launched a new and improved corporate and investor website to better engage with its investors, customers and other stakeholders. The website can be accessed at its current URL, www.guardionhealth.com.
“We continue to evaluate our current activities and how we can maximize customer engagement and increase sales, with a particular focus on the recently-acquired Viactiv business, while also carefully and prudently managing our cost structure, in order to create optimal shareholder value,” said Bret Scholtes, Guardion’s CEO. “By addressing these fundamental issues, we will continue our efforts to move Guardion towards becoming a key player in the clinical nutrition market.”
