So I'm going to basically go back.

OZ optics is a family business, family of Sezer Holding owned by the members of the Sezerman family, me and my wife and two kids. We have number of companies have number of companies named OZ and they're all owned or majority shares are owned by or sometimes wholly owned by Sezer Holding.

My name is Omur, my wife's name is Zahide and my daughter's name is Yesim and my son's name is Engin. Both me and my wife we came here as a student in 1978 and 1985 we start our own business while I was doing my PhD at it while I was writing my PhD thesis in the Dalhousie University.

We had no experience, no money obviously, not even a work permit at the time. We went through very hard conditions when we started the business in 1985. We have been very successful. We survived five different recession depression tsunamis over the years and the last one being the Covid 19 crisis.

Throughout all of these we survived and flourished and we are very successful business and we have three manufacturing facilities with the one main office in Canada about 300 employees and the other one in China with about 100 employees than and then the third manufacturing facilities in Turkey what we are original from with me and my wife. Oz Optics has about tens of thousands of customers and we are very profitable and we're growing despite the problems that we face this with the Covid19.
