HempAmericana Set for Initial Delivery in 90,000-Pound Hemp Flower Tolling Agreement with Hempistry

New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - January 23, 2020) - HempAmericana, Inc. (OTC Pink: HMPQ) ("HempAmericana" or the "Company"), an emerging leader in the CBD products market, is excited to announce that the Company is set to receive its initial delivery of premium Hemp Flower from Hempistry, Inc. ("Hempistry", hempistry.com) as part of the new Tolling Agreement recently struck between the two companies, wherein Hempistry will ship up to 90,000 lbs. of premium Hemp Flower to HempAmericana for extraction and processing at HempAmericana's state-of-the-art high-capacity Augusta, Maine CBD production facility, generating full-spectrum CBD oil for sale, with proceeds divided evenly between the parties.

The first shipment, now on its way to Augusta, contains One Thousand Pounds (1,000 lbs.) of premium Hemp Flower set for immediate extraction and processing.

Salvador Rosillo, HempAmericana CEO, commented, "This is an exceptional deal for HempAmericana and its shareholders because it presents a de-risked commercialization ramp. We will be able to deliver a higher quality product at better-than-anticipated gross margins and maintain the pricing flexibility to aggressively penetrate the marketplace, all while eliminating balance sheet and dilution risks for our shareholders due to the lack of upfront costs on the path to revenue growth."

Management notes that the Tolling Agreement should afford HempAmericana with pricing flexibility due to the advantageous cost structure at the heart of the agreement. This flexibility may prove valuable as the Company seeks to aggressively widen its distribution footprint as it enters the $2.2 billion North American CBD market, which is expected to demonstrate accelerating growth in 2020 due to continued rapid mainstream consumer adoption. According to research firm MRFR, the global CBD market is expected to grow at a stunning 125% CAGR from 2019 to 2026.

"We're thrilled," continued Rosillo. "We are going to get a better overall deal on our core production input and with no material upfront cost. And we are already set to get started with the first big shipment on the way."
