Expands Its Presence into Mexico

The Real Stuff, Hemp Hop, and Cheech & Chong Smokables and
Wraps
SAN DIEGO, CA -- May 18, 2023 -- InvestorsHub
NewsWire -- Hempacco Co, Inc. (NASDAQ: HPCO) ("Hempacco"), a hemp smokables company Disrupting
Tobacco's™ nearly $1 Trillion industry with hemp cigarettes,
smoking paper, and alternatives to nicotine tobacco, today
announced it signed an exclusive Distribution Agreement with Paradise
Shop Mexico ("Paradise"),
a premier cannabis consumer goods distributor in Mexico.
Under the terms of the agreement, Paradise will promote, market,
and distribute Hempacco's entire portfolio of hemp and CBD
products, including The Real Stuff Hemp Smokables, Rick Ross's Hemp
Hop Smokables and Wraps, Cheech & Chong Smokables and Wraps,
and future Snoop Dogg hemp-derived products.
Paradise
seeks to be Mexico's leading franchise retail chain in distributing
cannabis-related products and derivatives. There are currently 111
Paradise franchises operating nationwide. Their mission is to
provide cannabis consumers with the different products that can be
legally sold in Mexico, whether medical, smoking, food, or cosmetic
items. Paradise was started in 2015 in Monterrey, Mexico, by a pair
of young entrepreneurs who decided to give a different twist to the
brand, focusing on the health and well-being of the community.
Their goal is to impact Mexican society and promote responsible
consumption positively.
This
collaboration between Hempacco and Paradise is an exciting
development for both companies as it allows them to tap into new
markets and leverage their respective strengths to create new
opportunities for future success. The agreement will provide
Paradise access to Hempacco's extensive hemp-derived products, such
as hemp cigarettes, hemp smoking paper, CBD oils, topicals,
edibles, skincare, and more. In addition, the two companies have
discussed jointly developing new innovative product lines with the
Paradise Shop brand.
"It makes sense
for us to partner with Paradise Shop Mexico because they are
opening the market one franchise at a time and following the laws
that are changing their position towards cannabis," stated Sandro
Pianconce, CEO of Hempacco. "This agreement marks a major milestone
in the growth of Hempacco as it will enable us to expand our reach
to this emerging market and neighbor to the south."
"Expanding the
commercialization of our brands has been one of our main
objectives, so starting operations in Mexico with our new business
partner Paradise Shop Mexico will not only allow us to have an
exponential presence in more than 100 stores nationwide but also
reach one of the markets with the greatest growth potential in the
hemp industry in the medium and long term," stated Daniel Ortega,
VP of Sales at Hempacco.
Mexico's cannabis market is projected to be worth $5 billion within
a few years, according to the National Association of the Cannabis
Industry. Cannabis in Mexico is legal for both recreational and medicinal purposes. It became legal
for recreational purposes in June 2021. Hemp and CBD products loom
large in the minds of consumers. Former Mexican President Vicente
Fox, a Paradise collaborator and franchise owner, announced at the
CannaMexico World Summit 2019 that he was ready to plant cannabis
and develop a cannabis research center on his ranch in Guanajuato.
The climate is right in Mexico for Hempacco to consider expansion
and set a footprint. By providing customers with access to
high-quality hemp-based products, this partnership will help
promote the industry's growth.
