On April 15, 2019, it was formally agreed that CannaOne would retain a 25% ownership stake of the US CBD marketplace to be branded as ‘BWell’ with CannaOne acting as facilitator and operator of BWell alongside Real Health Science. The 25% ownership is granted to the company for marketing and development services over the next 24 months.

CannaOne CEO Solomon Riby-Williams stated,
“The BWell branded US CBD marketplace, utilizes the vast relationships and large network of high-quality CBD suppliers possessed by Real Health Science, such that it will be able to provide the CBD market premium products and services at extremely competitive pricing. The large and ever-increasing demand for CBD products makes this partnership with Real Health Science the perfect opportunity to implement our proprietary Bloomkit cannabis technology platform as the underlying baseline foundation driving the BWell CBD marketplace.”
Riby-Williams added,
“The timing of the launch of the BWell marketplace could not be any better – CBD is finding its way into a great quantity of everyday products spread across a wide array of consumer requirements. It’s being unabashedly embraced by all sorts of demographics and BWell will be right there with them ensuring that they receive the best products in the timeliest manner to satisfy those needs.”
The USA CBD Market:
CBD, a non-psychoactive cannabinoid found in cannabis, has had a surge in popularity over the past couple of years. Unlike THC, the chemical compound that gives marijuana its signature effect, CBD has been shown to help with everything from PTSD and anxiety to MS and epilepsy—without the effects associated with THC.
“In past years CBD products were available mostly in head shops, with a few doctors recommending them for various maladies. But in 2017 and 2018, the products spread rapidly to natural food stores, beauty aisles, cafés, and doctors’ offices. It was expected that the industry was on track to hit $591 million in 2018, and thanks to a number of factors—including, surprisingly, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell—that could increase 40 times in the next four years.”
