STERLING CONSOLIDATED CORP. (OTCMKTS:STCC) Files An 8-K Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Story continues below

On January 3, 2019, Sterling Consolidated Corp. (“SCC” or the “Company”) entered into a material definitive agreement with blockchain solution provider, Kryptopal Inc., www.kryptopal.io (“KryptoPal”), for KryptoPal to provide contract services for development of a system to deliver the Company’s previously announced crypto dividend as part of the Company’s block chain strategy to distribute “O-rings” globally, with an initial focus on Asia. The Company had previously announced a cryptodividend with a record date of October 26, 2018 and a distribution date of December 14, 2018. The Company has announced a revised record date of November 22, 2019 and a distribution date of December 13, 2019.

Sterling Seal & Supply, Inc. (“Sterling Seal”), a subsidiary of the Company, incorporated in 1997, is a distributor of O-rings. O-rings are one of the simplest, yet most engineered, precise, and useful seal designs. They are one of the most common and important elements of hydraulic and pneumatic machines. O-rings and the other products that Sterling Seal sells are used in a wide variety of industries, including automotive, pump, transmissions, oil and energy, machinery, and packaging. These products are utilized primarily as seals to prevent leakage of liquids or a gas. Sterling offers a catalogue of standard sizes, and will take orders for special sizes not available in the standard catalogue. In order to satisfy the needs of our customers and stay competitive, Sterling Seal maintains a wide variety of products in substantial quantities at its main warehouse in Neptune, New Jersey, as well as at its other facilities in Florida and Massachusetts. Integrity Cargo, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary, is a freight forwarding business, founded in 2008, that allows SSC to control costs, reduce handling, and provide faster deliveries from non-domestic vendors.

SCC has plans, to establish “DiMo,” a decentralized international marketplace for O-ring distribution. Based on block chain technology, the goal of establishing DiMo is to solve the cash flow burdens from upfront inventory payments and high carrying costs problems for O-ring distributors, as well as to speed the entire distribution process. Plans for DiMo are in early and preliminary stage and total funding and planning requirements have not been established, nor resources allotted. Regulation of block chain systems is also in evolutionary and changing state.

The foregoing discussion of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.
