Highlight : Closing of this Transaction Paves the Way for Creation of the Colorado Hemp Agro-Industrial Zone – a Sustainable Green Project in Northwest Colorado
GLOBAL HEMP GROUP INC. (CNSX:GHG.CN) (OTC:GBHPF) (FRANKFURT:GHG) is pleased to announce that the Company has now finalized its Definitive Agreement (see news release of February 8, 2021 for further details) by satisfying all “conditions precedent” to close the transaction with Prescient Strategies Group, LLC (“PSG”).
The Company’s closing is now in process and expected to be completed with the exchange of PSG’s Western Sierra Resource Corporation (“WSRC”) (OTC: WSRC) Preferred Series A and GHG’s Preferred Series B Stock. The transaction provides the Company with control of WSRC’s extensive existing water infrastructure developed over the last 15 years and currently valued at more than +US$40 Million. The availability of these water assets is a key resource in the development of the Colorado Hemp Agro-Industrial Zone (“HAIZ”), a Sustainable Green Enterprise.
The Colorado HAIZ is being developed under the banner of Innovative Hemp Technologies (IHT), a wholly owned subsidiary of Global Hemp Group. IHT’s core objective is to develop “green” and “affordable” homes in a Planned Unit Development utilizing hemp-based construction materials to meet historical pent-up demand in the area. This will complement the project’s onsite development of largescale irrigation and cultivation of industrial hemp and the manufacture of hemp-based construction products and textiles. The project will significantly expand the existing water rights and infrastructure assets while generating multiple revenue streams for the Company.
Further, this transaction facilitates the Company’s capital formation opportunities and subsequent growth through completion of a series of targeted acquisitions strategic for accumulation of long-term real estate assets and enhanced value through expansion of water infrastructure. The project will maximize the beneficial use of the water assets through all aspects of the HAIZ. Significant job creation will be an additional benefit to the region.
Curt Huber, President of Global Hemp stated, “Since Global Hemp’s inception, the Company’s vision has always been about sustainability and collaboration, with a focus on the development of the industrial aspects of the hemp. The multiple applications of the hemp plant, notably in the building industry, will become the most significant over time. This project combines all of the Company’s values into one project and enables individual homeowners to make a meaningful environmental statement of their own. We are looking forward to working with the Western Sierra team in the development of this project.”
