Director resignation

Camkids Group plc (AIM: CAMK), a leading Chinese designer, manufacturer and distributor of branded outdoor clothing, footwear and equipment for children and teenagers, announces that Richard Sweet has resigned as a non-executive director of Camkids with immediate effect.

In tendering his resignation, Mr Sweet has cited that the principal reason behind his decision was as a result of a disagreement in investor strategy and dividend policy between the Executive and Non-Executive Directors of Camkids.

Camkids thanks Mr Sweet for his service over the last few years and intends to appoint a replacement UK based Non-Executive Director as soon as a suitable candidate is identified. Further announcements will be made at the appropriate time.
