HempMeds®, an MJNA portfolio company and the Company’s master distributor, is pleased to announce to shareholders and the public that it is expanding sales through HempMeds® South Korea, an exclusive distributor, responsible for marketing and sales of the Company’s cannabidiol (CBD) hemp oil products.

The initial purchase order of products is $2,000,000 USD with an additional $3,000,000 USD being required by the end of 2015. Further requirements, under the terms of the contract, require sales through 2016 totaling up to $25,000,000 USD with benchmark increases through 2018. Medical Marijuana, Inc. (OTC Pink: MJNA), an industrial hemp industry innovator sources, evaluates, invests in and acquires value-added companies with a focus on industrial hemp.

A report by IANS just published by Yahoo! India News states: Asia, with a current population of 4.4 billion, is likely to remain the most populous continent, with its population expected to peak around the middle of the century at 5.3 billion.

South Korea’s population is 49.3 million and, in terms of market size, the nation’s economy ranks 11th in the world by nominal GDP and 13th by purchasing power parity (PPP).

“We are extremely pleased to announce the establishment of HempMeds® in Asia with our first marketing opportunity being in South Korea,” explains Stuart W. Titus, PhD and Chief Executive Officer of Medical Marijuana, Inc. “As we are seeing the return of industrial hemp to the global economy, adding South Korea as an authorized distribution hub allows worldwide consumers easier access to CBD hemp oil products.”

Hemp is widely regarded as a “whole food” and “super food.” Medical Marijuana, Inc.’s cannabidiol (CBD) hemp oil is derived from the mature stalk of the hemp plant and is considered a food nutrient delivering the benefits of cannabinoids without the psychotropic/euphoric effects of THC. Hemp oil products from HempMeds® are readily available to ship to all 50 U.S. states, districts and territories plus more than 40 countries around the world.

“To augment our efforts in South America and South Korea, we are exploring opportunities to further expand our international distribution efforts,” concludes Dr Titus.
