(CSE:  CSI ) (OTC:  CADMF ) (FRA:  CWAA ) (the “Company” or “Chemesis”), announces plans to add an additional 25,000 ft 2 of manufacturing, in Cathedral City, California.

To date, our brands have garnered significant interest, and this additional manufacturing space gives us the ability to further meet consumer demand.”
