Wi2Wi Corporation Announces Private Placement and Expanded Order From Key Customer

Published

/THIS NEWS RELEASE IS NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES/

TORONTO, Feb. 6, 2025 /CNW/ – Wi2Wi Corporation (TSX.V: YTY) (OTC: ISEYF) (“Wi2Wi” or the “Company”) announces a best efforts non-brokered private placement for the issuance of up to 15,000,000 units of the Company (the “Units”) at a price of CAD$0.05 per Unit, to raise aggregate gross proceeds of up to CAD$750,000 (the “Offering”). Each Unit will be comprised of one common share in the capital of the Company (a “Share”) and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant referred to as a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Share at an exercise price of CAD$0.10 per Share for a period of two years from the closing date of the Offering, subject to an acceleration clause (details described below).

Use of Proceeds

The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Offering, for working capital purposes, including to satisfy increased demand from a long-standing client. In response to a recent shipment that did not meet Wi2Wi’s quality standards, the Company was able to immediately determine the root cause (which was isolated to a single major account customer) and that resulted in a follow on order of approximately USD$500,000 for the same component. Such order reinforces the Company’s relationships with its customers, as well as Wi2Wi’s commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. Fulfilling this order will require additional working capital as the Company ramps-up its production.

“Our top priority is delivering high-quality products and maintaining strong customer relationships,” said Ted Clark, CEO of Wi2Wi. “We acted quickly to resolve this matter, demonstrating our commitment to excellence. The customer’s continued trust and significant follow-on order reflect the value they place in Wi2Wi’s solutions and service.”

Acceleration Terms of the Warrants

If, at any time prior to the expiry date of the Warrants, the closing price of the Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) is equal to or greater than CAD$0.10 for any 10 consecutive trading days, then the Company may, at its option, accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants by issuing a press release announcing that the expiry date of the Warrants shall be deemed to be on the 30th day following the issuance of the Warrant acceleration press release. All Warrants that remain unexercised following the accelerated expiry date shall immediately expire and all rights of holders of such Warrants shall be terminated without any compensation to such holder.

The Units will be offered by way of a private placement pursuant to exemptions from prospectus requirements under applicable Canadian securities laws. Closing of the Offering is subject to a number of conditions, including receipt of all necessary corporate and regulatory approvals, including the Exchange. All securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus a day from the date of issuance in accordance with the policies of Exchange and applicable securities legislation.

Chef Robotics Physical AI Models Can Now Automate Baked Goods Packing

Published

on

By

SAN FRANCISCO, April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Chef Robotics, a leader in physical AI for the food industry, today announced that Chef robots can now automate tray assembly for baked goods packing. The application places baked products, such as burger buns, chocolate chip cookies, biscotti, butter cookies, biscuits, fortune cookies, granola bars, rusks, and shortbreads into trays and packaging containers before sealing.

Watch Chef robots in action.

Baked goods packing has historically been difficult to automate for high-mix production. Each item behaves differently on the production line—a granola bar compresses under the wrong grip, while a biscotti or rusk can crack if placed at the wrong angle. Surface textures range from glazed and smooth to crumbly and irregular, and strict presentation requirements leave little room for error. This variability has made it challenging for automation systems to reliably handle baked goods at production speeds, leaving food manufacturers dependent on manual labor and traditional bakery equipment.

To address this, Chef built its baked goods packing application on its existing piece-picking capability, which uses Chef’s AI-powered computer vision and physical AI models trained across diverse real-world production environments. This allows Chef robots to assess each item’s position, shape, and orientation in real time and determine how to pick the items from the pan and place them quickly and precisely without damaging them.

The baked goods packing application supports four distinct placement capabilities.

First, Chef’s vision system detects the angle at which each item sits in the pan and reorients it after picking, placing it on the tray at the exact angle required, regardless of its original position, enabling retail-ready presentation for SKUs that require precise angular placement.

Second, Chef robots can place multiple baked goods into the same packaging container in a single automated pass, completing full tray assembly without manual intervention.

Third, for packaging containers with multiple small compartments, Chef robots can precisely place items into each designated section, including multiple items in the same compartment, using Chef’s AI vision model to detect compartment positions and orientations in real time.

Fourth, Chef’s vision system identifies the exact center of each tray and places every item at a predefined offset from that center, ensuring a uniform, consistent arrangement across every pack regardless of how trays arrive on the conveyor.

For food manufacturers evaluating bakery systems and baked goods packaging automation, the application offers higher throughput, reduced labor dependency, and consistent presentation across shifts. The capability runs on Chef’s existing robotic hardware and software, allowing manufacturers to deploy it without requiring any changes to their production lines.

Chef’s baked goods packing application is available in the U.S., Canada, Germany, and the UK and is included as part of Chef’s robotics-as-a-service (RaaS) pricing model.

Chef is the first company to have commercialized a scalable AI-driven food robotics solution. With over 104 million servings made in production, Chef leverages ChefOS, an AI platform for food manipulation, to offer a Robotics-as-a-Service solution that helps industry-leading food companies increase production volume and meet demand.
