YOWIE ANNOUNCES BRUCE DAVEY APPOINTMENT AS GLOBAL CREATIVE CONSULTANT

Yowie Group Ltd (ASX: YOW, OTC ADR: YWRPY) (the “Group” or “Yowie”) is pleased to announce the appointment of Australian Film Producer Bruce Davey as an independent Global Creative Consultant and advisor to the Group.

With over 25 years of experience in the film, television and entertainment industry, Bruce is uniquely placed to provide creative guidance and direction to the Group as it moves to open up other categories beyond confectionery including publishing, film and animation.

Born in, and based out of Sydney, Australia, Bruce brings to Yowie Group a wealth of experience and extensive contacts in the entertainment industry in the U.S, having been a resident of Los Angeles for 18 years, and across the world. Bruce is currently Chairman of Icon Group and intends to continue in this role.

Bruce has already commenced working with the Group on the development of Yowie publishing and Yowie animated webisodes (7 x 3 minute webisodes), designed to share the Yowie story and introduce each of the Yowie characters. A webisode is an episode of a series that is distributed as web television. It is available either for download or in streaming, as opposed to a first airing on broadcast or cable television. The format can be used as a preview, a promotion, as part of a collection of shorts, or a commercial. Both the publishing and webisode developments are being tailored for the US market and scheduled for launch in early 2017.

Yowie is delighted Bruce has embraced and shares the Yowie brand vision and mission to ‘Save the Natural World’.

We welcome Bruce to the Yowie team and look forward to working with him in bringing the Yowie story and characters to life in multiple languages and markets across the world.

Yours sincerely
