Kannaway Is Expanding to Japan

Medical Marijuana, Inc. (“the Company”) (OTC: MJNA), the first-ever publicly traded cannabis company in the United States that launched the world’s first-ever cannabis-derived nutraceutical products, brands and supply chain, announced today that its subsidiary Kannaway® is hosting a series of “Hemp for Humanity” events in Fukuoka, Osaka and Tokyo, Japan, this month.

According to a recent report from cannabis data provider Prohibition Partners, Asia’s cannabidiol (CBD) market is expected to reach $5.8 billion by 2024. The report also stated that China and Japan represent Asia’s two largest-value CBD markets with Japan representing around $800 million and China with almost $4.4 billion by 2024 – collectively accounting for about 90% share of the market.

Kannaway® received approval to legally distribute tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)-free CBD products for personal use in Japan earlier this year and plans to utilize these regional events to educate current and potential Brand Ambassadors on the many potential wellness benefits and financial opportunities of hemp-derived CBD oil.

“As Kannaway’s newest international market, the possibilities for expansion are very promising,”

said Kannaway® Japan General Manager Peter Dale.

“These events will help us connect with both seasoned and young Japanese entrepreneurs who want to get started in the cannabis industry.”

Event attendees will hear from Kannaway® executive team members including Dale and International Vice President Alex Grapov, along with a feature presentation from Medical Marijuana, Inc. CEO Dr. Stuart Titus. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn first-hand about Medical Marijuana, Inc.’s history and latest developments, the nonprofit organization ECHO Connection, and celebrate Kannaway®’s impressive growth.

“It’s certainly an exciting time for the Company as we embark on developing solid operations throughout Japan,”

Titus said.

“We are a truly international company and our efforts in Japan showcase our dedication to bringing hemp-based CBD products to people around the world.”
