Charles Holmes, CEO of Hempco stated, “The Hempco B2B model is a perfect match for any of the future Relevium brands as the standard nutraceutical industry operating practices are to use turnkey contract manufacturers and logistics providers: processes that Hempco excels at.” Mr. Holmes then stated: “Relevium is poised to acquire brands that will be selling globally on platforms where hemp and other products are not widely available and Hempco will benefit from Relevium brands with a wide global distribution under multiple brands designed for a wide variety of demographics.”
