LONG BEACH, CA, Unique Solutions Design Ltd., developer of innovative body fit solutions and technologies, announced that it has received the first tranche of a $30 million investment from Toronto-based Northwater Capital's Intellectual Property Fund. The firm has offices in California and Nova Scotia, Canada.

The investment will be used to support the company's continued growth in North American markets and provide funding for an aggressive rollout of over 300 body scanning kiosks which will be installed at large shopping centers and other high-traffic venues.

Unique Solutions holds the exclusive license for the only body scanning technology to measure the body while fully clothed. Unique's highly acclaimed apparel size-matching service (http://www.mybestfit.com/news/33) which premiered at the King of Prussia mall in Pennsylvania has been a dream come true for consumers by making shopping easier. In addition to body measurement technology expertise, Unique holds the largest and most comprehensive database of body measurements. The application of the technology, and subsequent aggregate data, will have far reaching impact in the development of products and services that require accurate body size data.

"Northwater's investment will allow us to rapidly deploy our ground breaking new shopping service," said Tanya Shaw, CEO of Unique Solutions Design Ltd. "Since the widely reported success of our King of Prussia location, both shopping mall operators and consumers from across the country have been pressing for the opening of more kiosk locations. This investment provides an aggressive expansion opportunity."
