Oakville, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 30, 2023) - FendX Technologies Inc. (CSE: FNDX) (OTCQB: FDXTF) (the "Company" or "FendX"), a nanotechnology company developing surface protection coatings to reduce the spread of pathogens, is pleased to announce that its common shares will commence trading today on the OTCQB Venture Market (the "OTCQB") under the symbol "FDXTF".

"We are pleased to commence trading on the OTCQB," stated Dr. Carolyn Myers, President and CEO of FendX. "Listing on the OTCQB can not only improve our investor reach in the U.S. and enhance our shareholder base, but also build awareness of our film and spray nanotechnology.
