CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Oct 31, 2013) - Zedi Inc. ("Zedi" or the "Corporation") (TSX VENTURE:ZED) announces that its board of directors is conducting a review of strategic alternatives available to the Corporation with a view to enhancing shareholder value. The board of directors has established a committee of independent directors (the "Independent Committee") to work with management and the Corporation's external advisors to supervise the review of strategic alternatives.
