Isodiol International Inc. Launches RapidCBD™ and Iso-Sport™ Brands into Holland & Barrett International, the Largest Health and Wellness Retailer in Europe
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 19, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Isodiol International Inc. (CSE: ISOL) (OTCQB:ISOLF) (FSE: LB6B.F) (the “Company” or “Isodiol”) today announced the launch of its products with Holland & Barrett International (“Holland & Barrett”), beginning with an initial order of ten SKUs of hemp-extract based cannabidiol (CBD) products from the Company’s RapidCBD™ and Iso-Sport™ brand catalogues for more than US$1 million.
The launch has commenced online and more than 45,000 units are expected to be available in up to 800 Holland & Barrett stores by the end of March, 2019 throughout the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. Holland & Barrett is the largest health and wellness retailer in Europe, operating more than 1,300 stores, 10 million customer loyalty program members, and US$800 million in annual revenues.
The RapidCBD™ and Iso-Sport™ food supplement and cosmetic skin care products contain Isodiol’s proprietary ISO99™ hemp extract and botanical blends that work synergistically to provide positive health and wellness benefits to the body and mind. All of the products in Isodiol’s program for Holland & Barrett are specially formulated for the U.K. and E.U. markets.
“This is a great deal for both Holland & Barrett and Isodiol, and we could not be more pleased with the great people at Holland & Barrett who embarked on this months-long journey with us,” said Isodiol’s Chief Executive Officer, Marcos Agramont. “Isodiol has been the pioneer of many firsts in the hemp-based consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry. This one is special because it provides equal access to quality CBD products for an entire demographic of consumers who have a pre-existing relationship with a trusted vendor.”
“Gaining a foothold in the European market and getting Isodiol products on the shelves of such a respected retailer is a significant milestone in the Company’s development,” said Isodiol’s VP of Business Development, Graham Boylan. “Although the U.K. and E.U. markets are highly regulated, the opportunities to provide Isodiol’s pioneering hemp-based consumer packaged goods (CPG) to a new and growing CBD market outweigh those challenges. Holland & Barrett has led the way in selling CBD in the U.K., and we look forward to providing additional first-to-market U.K.- and E.U.- compliant CBD product offerings in the near future, to ensure that together we remain ahead of the pack.”
This announcement comes on the heels of Isodiol’s February 26, 2019 announcement of its partnership with the Asian American Trade Associations Council (AATAC) for the Company’s convenience store (C-Store) retail program into an initial 1,250 locations in the United States, with expansion plans of up to 10,000 additional locations. The Company will launch its Fast CBD Relief™ brand from the CBD Naturals® brands portfolio as its flagship cannabinoid (CBD) products in its C-Store program.
