VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Feb 11, 2016) - Kaizen Discovery Inc. (TSX VENTURE:KZD) announced today that it has received C$1.0 million from its majority shareholder, HPX TechCo Inc., as a partial drawdown of a C$5.0 million unsecured, revolving loan facility from HPX.
The C$5.0 million loan facility was established in 2013 as part of the reverse take-over transaction with HPX.
