Woodstock, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - October 6, 2014) - Tropic International Inc. (OTCBB: TRPO) (OTCQB: TRPO), a Nevada corporation in the business of developing and commercializing an innovative home mist tanning system, is pleased to announce that it has secured DTC eligibility for its common stock from the Depository Trust Company (DTC) effective October 1, 2014.

The DTC is a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) and provides electronic clearing, settlement and information services for the vast majority of publicly-traded equities and other securities in the United States. Since the trading of securities through DTC permits cost-effective clearing and guaranteed settlement, non-DTC eligible securities are often not accepted for deposit at many brokerage firms because of the obstacles required to execute trades, in turn making it difficult for a significant percentage of investors to access those securities.

John Marmora, the company's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "DTC eligibility increases the efficiency and lowers the cost associated with trading TRPO's common stock on the OTCBB and OTCQB, while at the same time increasing security and lowering transaction risk for investors. Electronic trading is the gold standard in today's financial markets and we are excited to be able to simplify the clearing and settlement process for both our shareholders and the investing public."
