Hemp for Health has also provided a description of the company’s plans and expectations for 2020.

In 2019, Hemp for Health focused on the outcome of a test crop, which included the CBD Carmagnola strain in the Tuscan Valley, Italy.

CEO and Founder of Hemp for Health, Robert Eadie, commented on the company’s past results and future hopes. “We are pleased with delivering on our promises to our shareholders as demonstrated by the results and cultivation of this year’s test crop of Carmagnola hemp.”

“2020 will be a transformative year. The company has world class farmers and soil, a stake in a European distribution channel, and results that ultimately will speak to our end goal of delivering wellness benefits to our consumers.”
