Following the Passage of California’s Assembly Bill 45, HempFusion Plans Retail Expansion

HempFusion Family of Brands Already Meet or Exceed Expected Guidelines

HempFusion Wellness Inc. (TSX:CBD.U) (OTCQX:CBDHF) (FWB:8OO) (“HempFusion” or the “Company”), a leading health and wellness Company offering premium probiotic supplements and products containing CBD, applauds California’s Assembly Bill 45 permitting the retail sale of products containing hemp-derived extracts and CBD. The Company and its family of brands plans to immediately expand its already sizeable footprint in California, the country’s most populous state.

“The 2018 Farm Bill removed hemp from the definition of marijuana in the Controlled Substances Act. Now California has passed Assembly Bill 45 that will allow California consumers to purchase food, beverage, dietary supplements and cosmetics manufactured with hemp-derived CBD” said Jason Mitchell, N.D., HempFusion‘s Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer. “As one of the most compliant CBD companies on the market, HempFusion's family of brands already meet or exceed California’s new regulatory requirements and welcomes this opportunity to quickly expand our footprint in the state.”

“With an already large distribution footprint within retail locations in California, we expect to continue to be one of the leading companies in the state,” continued Dr. Mitchell. “Our recently acquired female-focused brand, Sagely Naturals, was founded in California and has built a strong reputation among California consumers for safe and reliable premium hemp extract products. Continued progress in California will help the Company achieve its future revenue goals,” continued Dr. Mitchell.
