Uniworld Business Publications, Inc. Announces Contributions to Tsunami Relief Projects, Launch of My CD Directory (SM) and its 50th Year in Business

Millis, MA – March 2, 2005

Uniworld Business Publications, Inc. (http://www.uniworldbp.com) announces a number

of new initiatives that reflect it’s growing influence in North American economic and

business development. Whereas many professional services firms, economic

development/international trade organizations, libraries, colleges and banks are

customers, recent world events led non profit organizations such as Oxfam-America to

immediately turn to the Directory of American Firms Operating in Foreign Countries as

the most up-to-date resource to maximize corporate relief contributions. To do its part,

Uniworld Business Publications, Inc. provided information free of charge.

Other non profit organizations such as the Dikembe Mutombo Foundation
(Atlanta, Georgia) rely on Uniworld Business Publications, Inc. to support it’s mission.
The Dikembe Mutombo Foundation, started in 1997 by NBA All-Star of the same
name; found an architect using the same directory information who had an office
in the Congo. “This directory enabled us to contact the Louis Berger Group, Inc. These
architects, with offices in the U.S., Paris and in the DR Congo would have been nearly
impossible to locate otherwise. By doing so, we are able to stay on schedule with our
building project and in June 2006 the first new hospital in the Congo in 40 years will
open,” says Susan Johnson, Executive Director.

Uniworld Business Publications, Inc., currently in its fiftieth year, researches, edits and
publishes the latest contact information for "who owns whom" in the global marketplace.
It’s two directories, The Directory of Foreign Firms Operating in the United States, and
Directory of American Firms Operating in Foreign Countries focus on multinational
corporations and their foreign subsidiaries, affiliates and branch offices with hard-to-find
key decision makers' contact information. Over twenty data elements are included in
each contact including NAICS codes, revenue, per cent foreign ownership, business
description, etc.

The contact information is also available in a new CD format, known as My CD
Directory. (SM) Regional, country, state, and custom versions to match the areas of interest
to our customers are also available in My CD Directory and soft copy booklet format.

Christopher Shimkin, president of Uniworld Business Directories, Inc. cites that “My CD
Directory(SM) , a Windows-based resource which was developed with customers’ input,
provides the user interface features sought after: export to Excel, sort, and select
individual records for look up, print mailing labels and quickly access contact
information at one’s fingertips”. A Test Drive is available to evaluate My CD Directory
and can be arranged by contacting Uniworld Business Publications, Inc.
