On February 1, 2021, the Company completed the Ydro Process® integration into the Company's proprietary Organic Waste Processing and Composting Facility at its wholly-owned subsidiary SusGlobal Energy Belleville Ltd. ("SusGlobal Bellville").

On March 4, 2021, the Company signed a Capital Market Advisory Agreement (the "Agreement") with Exchange Listing, LLC ("Exchange Listing") to provide advisory services with respect to the Company's initiative to list its shares of Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Exchange Listing provides companies with cost-effective and efficient direct access to one-stop solutions in the strategic planning and implementation of listing on senior exchanges such as NASDAQ or NYSE. Focusing on company-specific structuring to meet listing requirements, Exchange Listing serves as the primary point of contact with the exchange, investment bankers, and lawyers throughout the listing process. With extensive experience in investment banking, securities law, corporate governance, and business management, Exchange Listing and its strategic partners facilitate its clients' listing and capital markets objectives.

On April 8, 2021, the Company took delivery of an International Prostar Truck and a Trout River Steel Hy-Cube, 53ft with 125.5 cubic yard capacity hauling Trailer for a total purchase price of $193,775 (C$246,722). The Truck and Trailer are being used predominately for the transportation, reprocessing, and beneficial use of mid-sized compost screenings from the Region of Peel Purchase Order received November 20, 2020 and to backhaul compost to customers.

Revenue increased by 20.58% during the fourth quarter of 2020 to $432,263 compared to the fourth quarter of 2019 in the amount of $358,498, from increased business from the Company's organic waste processing and composting facility.

We have confidence in a revenue ramp up this year," said Marc Hazout, Executive Chairman, President, and CEO of SusGlobal Energy Corp. "Our goal is to complete our regional strategy with a second facility and the commercialization of our proprietary organic liquid fertilizer in order to increase revenue and cash flow, maximizing shareholder value with an objective to up-list to a major exchange."
