Global Hemp Group, Inc. engages in the development of hemp cultivation for cannabinoid extraction. The company is headquartered in North Vancouver, British Columbia. The company went IPO on 2010-04-14. The firm is focused on two business segments: Industrial Hemp and Health & Wellness (Biopharma). The Industrial Hemp segment primary focus lies in the environmental uses of hemp for construction and hemp for sustainable bio-energy sources, both contributing to a carbon-negative footprint. The company is also focused on aligning with its hemp agro-industrial zone (HAIZ) strategy to achieve a carbon-negative footprint. Its principal feature of the HAIZ concept is the proximity of the industrial plant to the supply of raw materials and final markets. The Health and Wellness segment is focused on the acquisition of exclusive licensing of patents and intellectual property (IP). The company acquired exclusive rights to key patents and IP of Apollon Formularies plc., a UK-based international pharmaceutical company whose formulations and patents specialize in developing cancer treatments from natural biologics, including cannabinoids and functional mushrooms.
