About Grande West Transportation Group Inc.

Grande West was formed in 2008 to design and develop a 27.5 foot bus, known as
the "Vicinity." With little competition in the "mid-size" bus range, Grande West
has set itself apart from others with its "Vicinity" bus - a heavy duty
mid-size, true community transit bus.


The Vicinity is designed with affordability, accessibility and global
responsibility in mind. It costs half the amount as a 40 foot transit bus, burns
less fuel, emits less harmful environment emissions and achieves a life span
twice as long as cut-away buses with less maintenance costs.


In a large and unsaturated market, Grande West is poised to capture growth in
both the replacement of cut-away buses and the right sizing of larger buses for
better utilization of transit fleets across Canada and the United States.


Initial deliveries of 15 Vicinity buses occurred in August 2013 to BC Transit.
We also recognized the recent sale of our demonstration bus. Currently, we have
18 new Vicinity buses in production mostly for delivery to Quebec and Nova
Scotia transit agencies. Our potential sales funnel is constantly growing, as
the Vicinity is introduced to transit agencies across Canada.


For marketing and customer testing, 3 Vicinity demonstration buses are included
in the current production run inclusive of our new 30 foot model with 2 doors
for the Ontario market and airport shuttle bus applications. 


Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Service Provider (as that term
is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility
for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
