Dewmar International BMC, Inc. (OTCQB: DEWM ) (OTCBB: DEWM ) ("Dewmar" or "Company"), a leading provider of consumer brands to global markets announced that it was the subject of a business feature story last week, on March 13th, in The Clarion-Ledger, the largest circulated daily newspaper in the state of Mississippi, and was also picked up by ClintonNews.com.
The article -- titled, "Clinton Pharmacist Seeks to Build on Hemp-based Business," -- includes an extensive review of advancements in the hemp industry, noting the opportunities for farmers and retailers due to the recent passage of the 2014 Agricultural Act , and detailing Dewmar's ambitions to remain an innovator in the space, working with a national network of physicians, state legislators and thought leaders to create viable new products and a support infrastructure for the emerging hemp industry.
According to the article, "The 2014 federal Farm Bill allows farmers to grow hemp for research purposes in conjunction with universities or other research institutions, but only in states where the general practice is legal. This could open up further opportunities for a hemp-products industry that notched $581 million in retail sales in 2013, a figure 24 percent higher than in 2012, according to the Hemp Industries Association."
The article goes on to highlight Dewmar's recent deals to license a hemp-based iced tea and hemp-based energy drink with Miami-based Chill Drinks LLC, which Dewmar will introduce to the market via its wide distribution network. Finally, the article highlights Dewmar's accomplishments in recent years with respect to launching Lean Slow Motion Potion -- a leading relaxation beverage that recently gained prominent shelf-space at Wal -Marts all over the state.
Dr. Marco Moran and Dewmar have been featured prominently in the media of late, including an article in the Washington Times detailing the growth of the hemp industry , and an article on BevNet.com -- an influential beverage trade publication -- announcing the licensing deal with Chill Drinks.
Furthermore, Dr. Moran plans to address the shareholder community in his quarterly President's Message wherein he will provide updates on the status of 2014 growth plan initiatives. The Company is also compiling sales information of Lean Slow Motion Potion for the quarter after recently completing its largest product batch run over the past 12 months.
