Which means that they have a small office there.

"On September 20, 2024, the Company signed a six-year lease for an 80 square meter facility in Lam Dong, Vietnam that commenced on September 20, 2024"
KBLB shut down the main facility in Lam Dong last year:

"On January 31, 2024, the Company signed a five-year lease for a 700 square meter facility in Lam Dong, Vietnam that commenced on February 1, 2024 ..... During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company terminated its ROU lease arrangement. The Company does not occupy or use the facility and therefore has determined to impair this asset as there is no future benefit."

Those references that you refer to are most probably in Quang Nam.

My point ultimately is
Zero products Zero revenue Zero profits Dilution. 
Thanks for asking and giving me the opportunity to highlight them. Thanks again !!! Love b mulll.  

"Clue: every filing says ZERO."

no shit sherlock....that aint exactly news to anyone...whats your point?...

Yep that is what they leased.
And then they constructed a new facility on that land in bao loc .
But they still only pay for the original lease and that is what is recorded.


Kraig Labs kicked off construction for this new production center in July. The new facility increases the Company’s rearing capacity by more than eight times its current operations. With dedicated production spaces for each BAM-1 parental line and a dedicated space for its BAM-1 hybrid hatchery

The Company is now transitioning its production operations and equipment to this new space and finalizing the installation of backup power generation systems ahead of the next spider silk production cycle slated to begin at the end of this month


Thank god they got back up generators for the office space.

Clue: every filing says ZERO. 

"You are implying that KBLB currently has a facility in Lam Dong."

no im not implying that...im flat out stating it...

"Show us all where it says that"

ok...one last time because maybe there is a reading comprehension issue on your part:


"Kraig Biocraft Laboratories Confirms Operations in Vietnam’s Silk Production Hub, Lam Dong Province
ANN ARBOR, Mich., March 17, 2025 — Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (OTCQB: KBLB) (“Company” or “Kraig Labs“), a world leader in spider silk manufacturing, is pleased to confirm it has established production operations in Lam Dong Province, Vietnam. This milestone marks the fulfillment of a long-standing strategic goal that the Company has pursued for more than a decade."

"But did KBLB have Zero products?Zero revenues?Zero profits?"

you dont know?...not sure?....

besides...thats has nothing to do with what i said...

Keep on guessing which country next. 
People laugh at you. 
Keep it up. 

Great points. But did KBLB have
Zero products?Zero revenues?Zero profits?New future obsolete strains?More dilution?

All the more reason for a web conference after reading all the posts on here, because clearly none of us know what the plan is and things have changed since December.

I don’t believe you. Go back and read the PR’s and look at the photo. If it isn’t in Lam Dong, where is it? Uranus?

That’s pretty rich coming from somebody who road my coattails on RKLB. Quit stalking me and come up with your own investment winners. KBLB will be a winner just like RKLB as soon as they get it moving. As for the bet, WHAT DID YOU BET? NOTHING! So sthu. I’ll eat my Eco-Eats in Ann Arbor when I can afford to get out there. Ain’t doing no canned worms after that video you posted of those two guys yakking into buckets.

<< We’ve bet big on you >>

Yeah, you actually lost a bet where you said you would eat a silkworm if they didn't have a metric ton by 1 Apr of this year, and you never followed through.

As usual, you can't trust anything that the pumpers say.

" I promise that I will eat a silkworm on YouTube if they don't meet metric tonnage by April 1, 2025. And I will do it in front of KBLB headquarters."

<< makes as much sense as kblb cancelling a lease on a facility over a year ago and that sounding like they couldnt possibly be in Lam Dong...even after they announced they in fact were...smh >>

You are implying that KBLB currently has a facility in Lam Dong. Show us all where it says that....

<< production has been limited to the US lab and the indoor facility in Lam Dong >>

There is no "indoor facility in Lam Dong". KBLB dumped that facility last year. According to KBLB's own SEC filings, the only thing that they have in Lam Dong is a small office.

"Once again, "private partnerships" sounds a lot like local households"

makes as much sense as kblb cancelling a lease on a facility over a year ago and that sounding like they couldnt possibly be in Lam Dong...even after they announced they in fact were...smh

what about "internationally renowned high-end luxury fashion brand"?...i guess to you that sound like Joe's T-Shirt Outlet?...

Knock off the household talk. Some of these “households” are major growing operations (major compared to our current production) that can churn out several bags of cocoons. I would not understimate the potential for these small farms. But I would also caution everyone from speculating on that as it appears production has been limited to the US lab and the indoor facility in Lam Dong. I’m kinda annoyed that the mothership speaks in terms that leave us wondering, but it is what is. They should be — according to their own projections — at more than a metric ton by now. They are not. So quit screwing around. Own it. And tell us why, where we are, and what the plan is going forward. Clearly something didn’t go well over the past 7 months. I have cited a Vietnamese article that explained there was a widespread mulberry leaf issue. Why KBLB and Ben cannot speak in plain English and tell us what is going on for real defies logic and common sense. We can take the bad news. Just give it to us straight. We’re big boys and girls. We know this is going to succeed at some point. We’ve bet big on you so trust in us and give us information.

Kong on.

Once again, "private partnerships" sounds a lot like local households....

Kim should do a mid-year web conference for shareholders like the one he did in December. Update us on where we are, and where we are going. Please. Because right now, if feels like something is off. No multi-tons. No sales. We need more information. Because current results do not jive with December web conference. Give us a comprehensive update.

"That makes it sound like their relationship started in 2024"

it did...they spoke to LAREC in 2022 right after they got a business license in Lam Dong, but there was no relationship...

"I think your theory is a definite possibility, but I still think that also includes "expanding" to local households."

no...kblb went with an independent contractor (GSS) a while back...they have already identified that as the best way to mass produce...they were going to use prodigy textiles as an egg factory....that didnt end up working out because the eggs werent robust enough...the eggs are now robust enough and they will go right back to that method of mass production...

from June 10 pr..."Kraig Labs leadership will evaluate options to onboard additional rearing capacity, including private partnerships and potential collaborations to further expand its manufacturing footprint."...

those "private partnerships" will be large independent contractors and i expect that they have already been signed...those announcements will be in upcoming pr's....

"and KBLB shut down their 700 sq m facility in Lam Dong back in the first half of 2024."

they cancelled the lease on that facility because for whatever reason, it wasnt going to work out for them...im gonna guess there is more than one suitable building or facility located in Lam Dong which is the center of sericulture in vietnam...if you still doubts about that, see this pr:


"Kraig Biocraft Laboratories Confirms Operations in Vietnam’s Silk Production Hub, Lam Dong Province
ANN ARBOR, Mich., March 17, 2025 — Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (OTCQB: KBLB) (“Company” or “Kraig Labs“), a world leader in spider silk manufacturing, is pleased to confirm it has established production operations in Lam Dong Province, Vietnam. This milestone marks the fulfillment of a long-standing strategic goal that the Company has pursued for more than a decade."

<< on Jan 30 2024 kblb signed an MOU with .... LAREC. >>

That makes it sound like their relationship started in 2024, but KBLB has been dealing with LAREC since Jun 2022 (almost 2 years prior), and maybe even earlier:

https://www.kraiglabs.com/kraig-biocraft-laboratories-expands-operational-footprint-in-vietnam/

<< the one that had not yet signed an agreement with kblb...LAREC?... >>

I think your theory is a definite possibility, but I still think that also includes "expanding" to local households.

One thing to note is that LAREC (Lam Dong Agro-Forestry Research Experiment Center) is in Lam Dong (as the name implies), and KBLB shut down their 700 sq m facility in Lam Dong back in the first half of 2024. They now just have an office there.

on Jan 30 2024 kblb signed an MOU with the VSA and LAREC...they were to collaborate in order "to enhance and expand silk production in Vietnam."....

in April 2024, kblb announced they had signed " a landmark agreement with the Vietnam Sericulture Association (“VSA”)."...they also said " the VSA has agreed to assist the Company in obtaining formal intellectual property registration of its BAM-1 hybrid silkworm strain in Vietnam."...but there was no mention of LAREC in that pr...

yesterdays pr stated "announces that it is finalizing a significant three-year collaborative agreement with a key government agency in Southeast Asia to expand the scale and security of its recombinant spider silk manufacturing platform."..."A" key government agency...meaning ONE...the one that had not yet signed an agreement with kblb...LAREC?...

" The agreement is designed to accelerate the Company’s growth by providing access to previously unavailable rearing facilities, supporting infrastructure, and technical resources."

this line cant really be applied to Cambodia...but it can be applied to LAREC who has those capabilities in Vietnam...

“ Cambodia is definitely a future partner but are they that far advanced in their silk industry? ”

They only produce 3-4 tons a year. They export zero silk yarn.

But they import 3-400 tons of raw silk annually.

Don’t produce much silk but sure looks like they’re great at turning raw silk into products though.

After I read up on Diapausing I understood why they are doing it. It’s not a step backward so much as a ‘pause for the cause’; pun intended. The main gripe seems to be that production has, or will, come to a grinding halt for 3 months and I’m not sure that’s the case. Yes, Diapausing is necessary for THEE finest, most beautiful luxurious silk for the European fashionistas, right now. But is it necessary for, say, ballistic applications or sports wear, right now? Having said that, eventually, Diapausing will be for any & all applications for quality, production-on-demand, etc.

And the Friday bombshell, … “that it is finalizing a significant three-year collaborative agreement with a key government agency in Southeast Asia to expand the scale and security of its recombinant spider silk manufacturing platform.” From the pr:
This landmark agreement, expected to be signed before the end of July, marks the culmination of years of relationship-building and demonstrated performance by Kraig Labs and its proprietary spider silk technologies. The agreement is designed to accelerate the Company’s growth by providing access to previously unavailable rearing facilities, supporting infrastructure, and technical resources.

Importantly, this agreement also includes provisions for the creation of parallel rearing operations, a key component in the Company’s long-term roadmap to mitigate production risk and eliminate single points of failure. By distributing parent strain and egg production across multiple independent facilities, Kraig Labs is further securing its supply chain and increasing throughput capacity to meet future demand.Immediately, I thought of Vietnam but others have opined it could be Cambodia (possible), Thailand (??) or The Philippines (not a chance). The first paragraph, in boldface, tells me it has to be Vietnam. Who else have we spent time on for ‘relationship-building and demonstrated performance’? Cambodia is definitely a future partner but are they that far advanced in their silk industry? Are they able to provide 'rearing facilities, supporting infrastructure, and technical resources.'?

Introducing the Diapausing process into the current production mix will take time and effort. Coordination of all our facilities, personnel, and machinery is extremely important. This reshaping of the production platform is crucial for our long term success. Our CEO is a master of efficiency and stretching the dollar spent. Moving from province to province is one thing, moving back and forth between countries is quite another. Border crossings are notorious for being potential single points-of-failure. Adding on extra logistic hurdles (language, bureaucracy, transportation hiccups, etc.) is taking unnecessary risks and a waste of resources.

So, my guess is Vietnam. If it is another, I would be very surprised. Seriously, the Philippines (?), might as well be Guam. We will know soon enough but a 3 yr deal anywhere is a massive vote of confidence. These two press releases are two sides of the same coin; huge, fundamental & monumental changes to the production platform. If it is Vietnam, they have hitched their wagon to the hottest technological breakthrough in recent memory. Giddy-up !! & Buckle up !!

The clock is ticking (LOUDER than ever !!) … BUY MORE SHARES !!!

We are the * NEXT * BIG * THING * 

Later, WBeacham

Another informative post, Sick. As always, thank you for being here and sharing your expertise. GO KBLB!

Not sure about the Philippines. I think the Manilla Times is just publishing news relevant to the region.

I believe they are either talking about Vietnam...or they're going up river about 75 klicks above the Do Lung Bridge. In the vicinity where Col Kurtz disappeared.

Back in March i posted there would be more news to come in regards to the Prodigy and Larec partnership.
Now I believe we are at that moment.

What struck me with the picture of Prodigy staff was the amount of larec staff included.

My theory is kbl will have access to larec rearing facilities(about 6 miles down the road) along with the possibility of Mulberry access, cold storage support for eggs and support from Larec staff

We'll find out soon enough i guess

Looks like we will be in Vietnam, Cambodia, and Philippines.

Where in Southeast Asia is Kraig Biocraft Labs expanding its spider silk production in addition to Vietnam and Cambodia?
Evidence Pointing to the Philippines
While the official announcements do not specify the country for the second production facility or the government collaboration, several clues suggest the Philippines:
The Manila Times, a prominent Philippine newspaper, has reported on the second production facility announcement. This level of coverage by a Philippine media outlet suggests a significant connection to the Philippines, possibly indicating that the expansion is occurring there.
The Philippines is a major Southeast Asian country with a growing biotechnology and textile industry, making it a logical choice for expansion. The country's government could be the "key government agency" mentioned in the collaboration announcement, given the media attention.

Good luck to us all!

After reading today's pr again there is every chance he is just rehashing parts from monday.lol
Security could mean a patent in Vietnam.

I see i mixed up the 3 year agreement with culmination of years of relationship-building.

Somehow I thought 3 year relationship. Lol
He's going to use 3 pr's for this.geez

As for production for the rest of the year,who knows.
There are still holes everywhere.
Did Rice just bring parent strains
Did he also bring double hybrid eggs.
They only brought over parents for the trials in 2024.
But they also used a hybrid in the previous November with a surprise hank of silk to test the hybrid platform.
Do they do the same with the double but use the actual hybrid.

During the trip my hope was 3rd party would have bam-1 cocooning while rice was there and announced now or he supplied them while there.
It's possible kbl or a 3rd party has already finished a run of the hybrid after receiving eggs from rice.
All a guess and I can't 100% confirm there is a 3rd party.
But don’t see the numbers adding up without 3rd party help.

Production of eggs doesn't stop.
But you now have double the work starting with 4 parents ,crossbreeding, a 90 day diapause at 5c for the f1 hybrid eggs and then crossed for double hybrid in late October/November.

I don't see actual double hybrid cocoon production starting from the current parents in the field until December.

And with all that,yeah they aren't opening up in Cambodia simultaneously.

Yep this was a rehash pr with more confusion.

May just be another agency in Lam Dong. Krong Bong is another possibility. Cambodia is another possibility. Anybody’s guess is as good as anybody else’s, but why wait until the agreement is here when you can say it is near (coming soon). Probably because this PR seems more about saying the work is starting in August than announcing any new agreement. I guess we’ll find out soon enough.

Work under this agreement is anticipated to begin in August.

PHENOMENAL POST, MOJO! You crack me up. GO KBLB!

Geez man…don’t be so gdam lazy…just google it and you can see the truth…I’m tired of yanking your chain…you are so lazy it isn’t even fun anymore…

“ But if you want to believe everything you read online, you go right ahead.”

Good point…I don’t believe you…

The last line of your post is PRICELESS. I laugh hard. I appreciate your explanations of this very complex science. Who knows about the logistics. I foresee more news to come. GO KBLB!

<< ..the float hasnt changed... >>

Because it hasn't been reported since 5 May (when it was @ 604,796,302)...

The example I gave was of a "long-term shareholder" that manipulated the stock price by posting false and misleading information on iHub.

But if you want to believe everything you read online, you go right ahead. LOL.

oh look...the float hasnt changed...

Hmmm. So Vietnam has been unsatisfied with what KBLB could produce or KBLB was less than impressed with what was available in Vietnam?

Still confused about diapause and how it impacts production for rest of 2025. Is production shut down while diapause happens or do they continue running batches while preparing diapause for release 90 days from now (or 90 days from whenever the 2nd facility is up and running)?

Can they still reach 1.5 tons reeled this year and make this first delivery or do these pivots to diapause, 2nd facilities, now additional government agency, etc mean we are pushed back to early to mid 2026?

New government agency "work will begin in August". Is that work to do what is necessary for them to process KBLB's worms and setting up facilities to do so, testing, etc will begin or does that mean more batch runs will start up in August?

Can Kim's commitments of 1.5 reeled, 5 tons total produced and deliveries in the 2nd half of 2025 still be met?

"Today's PR didn't mention Cambodia, or any other country."

and yet it is Cambodia...

"I believe that they are talking about handing out their worms to local households within Vietnam."

lol...

Another thing that did cross my mind was about these dual production facilities.

With the advancements from the lab ,will these eventually become home of each new transgenic.
Darwin’s bark spidersilk at one facility.
Caddisfly spidersilk at the other.
Dragonsilk in Cambodia
Webslinger spidersilk at Uranus

"Usually when pumpers post that they are buying, they are many times selling."

usually when long term shareholders say they bought more shares, its because they bought more shares...

****BREAKING NEWS*****MORE DILUTION****

The Scumbag CEO diluted another 425k shares.....

The O/S increased from 1,065,791,284 to 1,066,217,477. 📉

Over 25 MILLION shares diluted so far this year (and the pace has been picking up).

Lots more dilution to come (about 180 MILLION more shares, according to SEC filings)....

Wash, rinse, repeat....

https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/KBLB/security

>

That is the main reason behind EVERY PR. The Scumbag CEO still needs to dilute about 150-175 MILLON shares, and he wants to stuff as much money into his pockets as possible.

Thank you, Sickzone for the very thorough explanation. What KBLB has accomplished just blows my mind.

At the time Mr. T said commercialization was ready—he wasn’t wrong. We weren’t wrong. The product was viable. But here's the truth only the long game reveals:

Viable isn’t optimal. And with this product? Only optimal survives.

So instead of launching with “just good enough,” he held the line—for this exact moment. A moment where:

***Spider silk isn’t being tweaked to meet a baseline…

***It’s now dialed per spec, per client, per mission.

***What we have now isn’t a last-minute pivot. It’s an elevated standard.

>>>No more rushing to market with compromises.

Now? The silk doesn't move until it's perfect for the order.

That’s true commercialization—not a gamble, not a hope, but a controlled release of high-performance biomaterial at will.

Welcome to precision-grade spider silk manufacturing, everyone!

This isn't kicking the can.

This is building the pipeline.

Let the Commercialization commence!

I'd say we're about due for that long-awaited...EXPONENTIAL ACCELERATION!!!

>

Today's PR didn't mention Cambodia, or any other country. They only said it was in "Southeast Asia".

I believe that they are talking about handing out their worms to local households within Vietnam. We shall see....

Usually when pumpers post that they are buying, they are many times selling.

Just take a look at this court case (that shows a pumper for ARYC doing the same thing):

Jason Nielsen, a 48-year-old investor from Scotts Valley, California, pleaded guilty to a "scalping" and "spoofing" scheme involving the stock of Arrayit Corp., a publicly traded medical device company. Nielsen manipulated the stock price by posting false and misleading information on online message boards (including iHub) about his trading activities, inducing others to buy Arrayit securities and inflate the stock price. Additionally, Nielsen placed orders to buy Arrayit stock with the intention of cancelling them before execution, creating a false impression of demand. This allowed him to sell his own shares at artificially inflated prices. Nielsen admitted that his actions were designed to deceive the public and Arrayit shareholders by creating a false sense of demand for the company's securities.

they could reveal the name of the luxury company...that would be great...they could reveal that Cambodia is all in...i find it interesting that they said the deal with Cambodia is a "collaboration"...sounds to me like Cambodia will be providing more than Vietnam has...perhaps facilities or some kind of investment...

but my dream would be for some kind of deal with India...a licensing deal with up front money...it doesnt have to be with all of India...it can be a deal with an Indian company...

maybe renewed military interest...

ill take whatever i can get as long as it moves the pps...
