Following Walmart (NYSE: $WMT) Deal (OTC: $HIPH) (NASDAQ: $NBEV) (CSE: $VIDA.C)
(OTC: $VATE)
Point Roberts WA,
Delta BC – April 23, 2019 - Investorideas.com, a leading investor
news resource covering hemp and cannabis stocks releases a snapshot focusing on
how more and more companies in the CBD and wellness space are heavily focused
on their infused beverage program and how recent larger distribution deals are
bringing in larger financial interests.
Read this in full at
New Age Beverages Corporation (NASDAQ: NBEV), the Colorado and Utah-based organic and natural beverage company
helped drive interest in the infused beverage space when earlier this month,
the company announced the distribution
expansion of their Marley brand with Walmart, the world's largest retailer.
Following a complete
redevelopment of the Marley portfolio following the acquisition by New Age in
mid-2017, which included the development and launch of Organic Marley Mate and Marley
Cold Brew, the Marley brand was one of New Age's leading brands in growth in
2018 with increased demand of more than 70%. Marley Mate led its segment and
drove category growth and the resurgence of the Marley Mellow Mood Relaxation
Drinks following its remake has paved the way for the launch of Marley Mellow
Mood + CBD, which is launching globally in 2019.
American Premium Water Corporation (OTC: HIPH), a company focused
on businesses in the health, beauty and biotech sectors, as well as on harnessing the powers
of hydrogen and nano technologies paired with CBD to treat health disorders and
enhance the quality of life, recently announced an additional
financing agreement with an institutional investor at the same $0.40 valuation
the Company received in January. Similar to the previous agreement, a
substantial portion of the Company’s convertible debt will be retired. The
retirement will be reflected in the Company’s 2nd quarter 2019
financials. Per the terms of the
agreement, the investor shall remain anonymous.
American Premium CEO,
Ryan Fishoff commented, “I am excited to announce that the Company has entered
into this agreement for additional financing at a .40 valuation. I view this as
an affirmation of the progress the Company has made over the past few months,
which has included the large two container orders from a distributor in
England, our partnership with Hanlons brewery to make a CBD infused beer, the
release of independent scientific testing results affirming the efficacy of our
proprietary Hydro Nano formulation, the acquisition of plant + body essentials,
and the increase in domestic demand. The accomplishments that have been made so
far this year are reflected in the $1 million FY19 guidance issued last week,
this additional financing is a validation of the Company’s direction. There is
still a lot of progress to be made achieving our business plan, but the
financing will give the Company the ability to achieve and potentially exceed
our fiscal year 2019 target.”
Phivida Holdings Inc. (CSE: VIDA) (OTCQX: PHVAF) has also announced a recent
distribution partnership with Scout Distribution, an innovative beverage
distributor based in San Diego, California. Scout will be the official distributor
of Oki beverages in the San Diego area, a region with over three million people
that is also ranked as a top ten wellness market by the MINDBODY Wellness
Index.
Elev8 Brands, Inc. (OTC: VATE) is aiming to build
brand awareness having announced the release of its
brand new, redesigned website and Search Engine Optimization (SEO) courtesy of
Bright Rain.
“Elev8 Hemp worked closely with Bright Rain
to create a beautiful, simple, and product-focused design to continue driving
our sales and position ourselves as leaders in the CBD-infused beverage
marketplace. Because of Bright Rain’s experience in the design and SEO
business, they embraced our desire to disrupt the beverage market and create
products that bring joy to our customers while providing new options for health
and wellness.”
Infused beverages
look to be the future of the beverage sector and are expected to get another
large boost following the upcoming public hearing on CBD regulations that the
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is holding on May 31. The FDA announced
earlier this month that it was accepting public comments on CBD regulations, and so far more than 400 people have already
commented, saying that regulations should be light and companies should be able
to lawfully market products containing CBD.

The #CBD Wave is Coming: How Companies are Prepared to Meet Market Demand: (NASDAQ: $VFF) (OTC: $HIPH) (OTCQB: $SOLCF) (CSE: $LOVE.C)

Point Roberts WA,
Delta BC – March 28, 2019 - Investorideas.com, a leading investor news resource covering
hemp and cannabis stocks releases a snapshot focusing on the rise of CBD within
the overall cannabis market in the US and internationally, and how companies
are preparing to deal with this explosive market.
With the passing of
the 2018 Farm Bill in the US, CBD represents a developing sector with many
vendors now seeking national reach to US customers. The rise in popularity for
CBD products is driven by consumers seeking natural-based health & wellness
solutions to treat various ailments; from inflammation, to anxiety and insomnia
amongst many others. As a result, the hemp-derived CBD market has been
estimated to reach US $22 billion by 2022.
One of the larger
companies in the CBD space, Village
Farms International, Inc. (TSX: VFF) (NASDAQ: VFF) recently applauded the actions of the
Texas Department of Health and Human Services in de-scheduling hemp, including
its cannabinoids (except for delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in compliance
with the 2018 Farm Act and Texas law.
Under Texas law, the removal of hemp from the controlled substances
schedule will be effective on April 5, 2019, 21 days after the schedule's publication.
Texas still must pass a hemp bill to enable the creation of a State Hemp Plan
under the 2018 Farm Act and develop a thoughtful regulatory regime to support
the hemp industry and protect consumers.
With more CBD markets
opening up, American Premium Water
Corporation (OTC: HIPH), a diversified
luxury consumer products company focused on businesses in the health and beauty
and biotech sectors, recently announced that it has engaged A&R Opportunity
to manage and fund a national sales team based out of Northeast Ohio that will
help market and sell the Company’s products nationwide. The arrangement was
necessitated by overwhelming demand for the Company’s products, including its
LALPINA CBD beverage and CBD topical products from its most recent acquisition
of plant + body essentials.
CEO of American
Premium Water Corporation, Ryan Fishoff commented, “I am pleased to announce we
have engaged with A&R to help oversee the Company’s national sales
strategy. The inbound demand has been overwhelmingly strong and it became
apparent over the past few weeks that the Company needed more assistance in
managing and servicing sales accounts. Their location in Northeast Ohio also
provides us with a presence in the Midwest, an area that we have not been
focusing on, but over the past few months became clear to the Company was an
area that needed to be addressed with burgeoning demand for CBD products. The
terms of the agreement were also very favorable to the Company, as it is performance
based, so all party’s incentives are aligned. This will be beneficial for the
Company going forward as we look to continue to expand our distribution
footprint nationwide and rollout new products in the coming months.”
The non-alcoholic beverage marketplace is estimated to
generate revenue of approximately USD$1.2 trillion by 2023, according to Markets and Research analysis.
Companies employing innovative marketing strategies, more flavor choices, and
the use of natural, high-quality ingredients will continue to drive market
growth in the category.
This may explain why SOL Global Investments Corp. (CSE: SOL) (OTCQB: SOLCF) just announced its investment in
leading premium soda-maker Jones Soda Co.
SOL Global's total
investment represents approximately 8.19% of the total issued and outstanding
common shares of Jones Soda which, based on publicly available information,
makes it the company's largest stockholder. SOL Global has filed a Schedule 13D
with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission describing its
investment in Jones Soda.
Cannara Biotech Inc. (CSE: LOVE) is also looking
into marketing and distribution for CBD, having recently announced that its subsidiary,
Global shopCBD.com Inc. has closed private rounds of financing for aggregate
proceeds of $8,865,849.15.
From the news: "As the hemp CBD consumer
markets continue to evolve, what is increasingly clear is the health and
wellness segment is becoming more prominent," said Zohar Krivorot,
President and CEO of Global shopCBD.com. "The high level of investor interest
in participating in shopCBD.com underscores the potential of both CBD products
overall and moreover, a best-in-class online platform to serve this
market."
There can be no doubt
that the CBD sector is about to take off as consumers wait impatiently for
products to become available, but is the industry properly prepared? As we saw
with recreational cannabis in Canada, many companies are likely to be
unprepared to keep up with supply, but there are numerous companies like the
ones above heeding the warning signs and taking the proper preemptive actions
to ensure they are ready when the CBD flood gates open.
