FOR: GENESIS WORLDWIDE INC. TSX, AIM SYMBOL: GWI June 10, 2008 Genesis Structural Products Division Signs New Deal in Ontario, Canada Market Expands beyond GTA Market into Cottage Country with Collingwood's Cranberry Mews MISSISSAUGA, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - June 10, 2008) - Genesis Worldwide Inc. ("Genesis" or the "Company"), (TSX:GWI)(AIM:GWI), an industry leader in "green" structural building technologies using light steel, today announced that its Genesis Products Division and subsidiary, KML Engineered Homes Ltd. (doing business as KML Building Solutions) ("KML"), will supply light steel framing needs for its new customer, Rockpoint Homes, of Concord, Ontario, Canada. Rockpoint Homes is building Cranberry Mews, a 42,200 square foot commercial plaza in Collingwood, Ontario, Canada. This retail plaza will consist of four independent one-storey buildings constructed of Genesis light gauge steel trusses and panels. Utilizing the "Genesis Solution", a turn-key solution which includes leading edge software, industrial equipment, hardware, processes and engineering services, KML will produce and install light steel frame panels for Cranberry Mews. Site work has begun and the Company anticipates this project will be completed by the end of September 2008. KML is able to manufacture and build high-quality steel trusses quickly and efficiently in the company's Vaughan plant year round. John D'Angelo, President and owner of Rockpoint Homes, praised KML's productivity. "We are delighted to develop this relationship with KML Building Solutions. We know their reputation. The superior quality of their steel trusses and panels will be evident in our new buildings," said D'Angelo. "We see a successful partnership ahead. They are a successful Canadian company that is demonstrating strength in the global marketplace," added D'Angelo. KML President, Jack Scivoletto, said the agreement with Rockpoint Homes is another important opportunity to demonstrate the high quality, consistency and cost effectiveness of Genesis light steel structures to the Ontario market. "Collingwood is a booming town and is expanding rapidly," commented Scivoletto. "The beauty of our product is that we can cost-effectively ship within four hours of our facility, which allows us to provide light gauge steel trusses and panels to the growing markets outside the core Greater Toronto Area (GTA) region. These regions typically suffer from not having easily available sub-trades. We build 80% of our product in our own plant, and, as a result, production and erection time is significantly quicker than in the traditional building solution. We are able to offer 'just in time' production and delivery." About KML Building Solutions KML utilizes Genesis' framing technology to provide builders with higher quality, faster and more cost effective framing solutions than the traditional framing methods of the past. Innovative light steel building materials and a fully integrated "turn-key approach" to framing construction sets KML apart and provides builders with a more simplified building process with considerably less risk. With over 20,000 residential and commercial buildings constructed in North America, KML has become a leading light steel framing innovator and provider in the world today.
