Laguna Blends to Acquire 100% Stake in a Global Cannabis Leader with Unaudited Annualized Sales of Approximately $12,000,000 USD
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / March 13, 2017 / Laguna Blends Inc. (CSE: LAG) (OTC Pink: LAGBF) (Frankfurt: LB6A.F) (the "Company" or "Laguna") is pleased to announce that it has signed a letter of Intent (LOI) to acquire 100% interest of a global Cannabis leader with unaudited annualized sales of $12,000,000 USD and adjusted EBITDA of $1,588,000 USD.
This acquisition is a major step forward in establishing Laguna as an international leader in the global cannabis industry. The Target company has an extensive portfolio of intellectual property and hemp driven CBD products including isolates, full spectrum oils, pain creams, oral sprays and other nutraceutical products. The Target company also has a medical division and is currently focusing on Latin America to develop cannabis-based pharmaceutical products.
The Hemp Business Journal estimates the total U.S. CBD market will grow to a $2.1 billion market in consumer sales by 2020 with $450 million of those sales coming from hemp-based sources.
Ray Grimm, CEO of Laguna stated, "This acquisition represents Laguna's first foray into the rapidly growing international cannabis space. With this acquisition, through licensing deals with licensed growers and manufacturers in legal markets, Laguna is now able to capitalize on the global marketplace by utilizing existing infrastructure. The synergies of the combined entities will allow us to be more aggressive in our expansion and growth strategy and I'm very confident we will be able to create substantial shareholder value through this transaction."
The Target company has recently acquired a leading brand of innovative cannabis infused beverages that are currently sold in California and Colorado. They also anticipate to close contracts in Canada and several other U.S. markets within the next 90 days. More information will be provided on these contracts in the coming weeks.
The CEO of the Target company stated, "As we move forward through the restructuring process of the combined entities, we will continue to focus on high growth strategies and additional acquisitions. To stay competitive amongst our competition, it is very important that we diversify our revenue verticals with new initiatives and product offerings which will add tremendous value to our current and future shareholders."
The terms and conditions of the pending transaction are not disclosed. The transaction, which is subject to customary closing conditions and due diligence, is expected to close in Q2-2017.

LAGBF Offers Treasure Chest of Opportunity to Aspiring Entrepreneurs and Affiliates
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=122834472
Laguna Blends Inc. (OTC: LAGBF) asks, “Have you ever dreamed of owning your own business – full-time or part-time?” The very thought conjures up a multitude of emotions over a wide spectrum of aspirations and ambitions. ‘What if you could be involved in a home-based business and didn’t have to be good at sales?’ For the person who is moved to take action as a result of these questions, his or her thought process quickly and naturally turns to the obvious – ‘What product or service energizes me, and, if I can chart my own course, I may as well get involved with something I can get excited about.’ To these questions, Laguna Blends offers a viable answer.
Laguna Blends is a network marketing company focused on the nutritional health benefits derived from hemp. Core markets for hemp in this upward trending niche include health and functional foods, natural body care and birdseed and pet/veterinarian markets. Hemp seed is commercially appealing in large part due to its high protein and essential fatty acid profile. A large percentage of hemp seed production (whether in seed, oil, flour/powder or finished foods) is funneled toward the health food sector. Cosmetics and body care products made from hemp oil are also part of a growing market.
The Hemp Industries Associates (HIA) estimates that the total U.S. retail value of hemp products in 2012 was approximately $500 million – all of which includes food and body products, clothing, auto parts, building materials and other products. These figures are likely to fuel the aspiring network marketer to conclude that not only do they have the opportunity to work with an upward trending product, its versatility and appeal over a range of market sectors is more than apparent.
The global wellness industry is a $3.4 trillion market. Defined as a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, the topic of wellness is well worth delving into. Through its independent affiliates, LAGBF uses tools and technology to aid in building an international business from the comfort of one’s own home or literally anywhere in the world.

Laguna Launches Business in Canada and the USA with 135 Affiliates
KELOWNA, BC / ACCESSWIRE / March 7, 2016 / Laguna Blends Inc. (CSE: LAG) (Frankfurt LB6.F) (OTC: GNRSF) (the "Company" or "Laguna") launches business in the USA and Canada and completes final payment to PNP Pharmaceuticals, ("PNP") for the manufacturing of Laguna's "Caffe", protein coffee. Laguna owns the intellectual property and worldwide marketing rights for this unique and proprietary product.
Laguna has now launched sales with 135 independent affiliates throughout the USA and Canada. The first product category that Laguna has introduced are unique, instant, functional beverage products that contain hemp protein, omegas and other efficacious ingredients. The first product that is being offered for sale is "Caffe", Laguna's protein coffee beverage.
Laguna spent over one year of research and development to invent a completely unique coffee product. Laguna has achieved its goal of creating a delicious tasting, functional beverage that is served hot as an instant black coffee. Approximately 20% of each package contains whey and hemp protein, which makes Laguna's product very different than its competition in the direct sales and retail coffee business.
Stuart Gray, Laguna's President and CEO stated "Laguna has worked diligently for the past 21 months by establishing a world class team of executives and business advisors, developing quality hemp beverage products, and providing innovative technology to affiliates that is a game changer in the multi-level marketing Industry ("MLM"). The Laguna World virtual, cloud based, 3D, immersive technology has the ability to replace the need for hotel meetings and travel, making Laguna a more efficient marketing company than its MLM competitors. Laguna has now moved from the research and business development stage to having the ability to generate sales through its current affiliate network."
Dennis Compo, Laguna's Executive Director of Marketing said, "Laguna has been contacted by top MLM and affiliate marketing professionals for the past six months. Currently, there are 135 registered affiliates that are eager to market the products and recruit other affiliates into the Laguna business. In the 30 years I have been in the MLM Industry I have not seen this caliber of industry leaders join an MLM company at this early stage."
Stuart Kawasaki, President of Laguna Blends USA said, "Prelaunch is a pivotal step for Laguna Blends and is a direct result of almost two years of building the necessary business foundation and vendor relationships. Laguna provides an incredible business opportunity for our affiliates and a high quality product experience for the end consumer. Laguna has taken the necessary measures to ensure that the logistics, manufacturing, customer service, technical support and shipping is in place in the Unites States and Canada."
Martin Carleton, head of technology and director of Laguna said, "During the prelaunch phase, Laguna will continually test systems to ensure affiliates and customers have the best possible user experience. Valuable feedback and technical data will provide Laguna the information that it needs to continually strive for the best available infrastructure for affiliates and customers."
Ray Grimm, Laguna's business advisory board member and consultant said, "Laguna Blends has aligned an experienced management team, the best available technology and has created an entirely new and unique product category that has the potential to position Laguna to be the next big MLM growth company."

KELOWNA, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 29, 2015 / Laguna Blends Inc. (the "Company" or "Laguna") (CNSX: LAG) is pleased to announce that it has received approval from Health Canada for three additional powdered flavours: PRO369 Chocolate Banana, Mixed Berry and Vanilla Caramel. On Sept. 22nd, 2015 Laguna announced that it had received approval for Pro369 Tropical Powder.
The Minister of Health has granted Laguna a product license along with a Natural Product Number ("NPN") for all four of the Pro369 Flavours. They are all listed under the same NPN.
Laguna intends to market the listed four powdered flavours of its unique hemp proteins through its planned affiliate network.
"I am ecstatic that Laguna has approvals for all four of our Pro369 hemp protein products," stated Stuart Gray, President and CEO. "In addition to hemp protein contained in our products they also contain Ginseng and HempOmega (TM). Products approved by Health Canada provides credibility to Laguna and its affiliates in the marketplace."
Naturally Splendid Enterprises Ltd. (the "Naturally Splendid" or "NSE") (TSX Venture: NSP) provided the research and development of all four of the flavours of Pro369. In addition Laguna and NSE have entered into a manufacturing agreement for Pro369.
About the Health Canada approval: In order to obtain authorization to legally sell a natural health product in Canada, a product license application must be submitted to Health Canada. To obtain a license to sell a natural health product, applicants must give detailed information about the product to Health Canada, including: medicinal ingredients, source material, dosages, potency, non-medicinal ingredients and recommended use(s). The safety and efficacy of natural health products and their health claims must be supported by in-depth, scientific evidence so that consumers and Health Canada know the products are indeed safe and effective and to ensure benefits outweigh risks. Evidence may include clinical trial data or references to published studies, journals, pharmacopoeias and traditional resources. The type and amount of supporting evidence required depends on the proposed health claim of the product and its overall risks.
Once Health Canada has assessed a product and deemed it to be safe, effective and of high quality, they will then issue a product license along with an eight-digit NPN.
Pro369 - is a variety of unique 30g single serving ("on the go") hemp protein powder drink mixes which are available in various flavours. The hemp proteins are water soluble and can be directly mixed in water or added to almond, coconut or regular milk. In addition, the hemp protein can also be blended into a shake or smoothie.

The multitude of health benefits from Black Coffee and Laguna Blends
10/05/15
"Johns Hopkins University has suggested drinking three to five cups of coffee a day reduces the risk of clogged arteries and heart attacks.
Black coffee has reported the following benefits:
Reduce risk of most all types of cardiovascular diseases
Reduce risk of stroke
Reduced risk of diabetes
Reduced overall cancer risk
Reduce the risk of all liver diseases (liver cancer, cirrhosis etc.)
Lower risk of Parkinson’s disease
Reduce risk of cognitive decline
Potential protective effect against Alzheimer’s
For years, myths like coffee stunts your growth were touted among other, leading many to believe coffee was not a positive drink of choice. Given these new findings, there is no longer a need to view coffee as something we need to cut back on.
Heart, researchers analyzed almost 26,000 people and measured their calcium levels in the coronary arteries, seeking any correlation between coffee consumption habits.
A recent analysis of 36 studies showed moderate coffee consumption was linked to a decreased risk of heart disease and other research has made associations with a reduced risk of type 2 diabetes."

Product Trends
Targeting boomers and their health needs has been an extremely lucrative exercise for many years. Metagenics, for example has a product for menopause that claims to dramatically reduce the number of daily hot flashes.
Energy drinks continue to evolve. Essential Oils are trending hard, and have become the focus of the scientific community who are investigating their benefits for diseases including cancer, HIV, asthma, bronchitis, heart strokes, testosterone enhancement, to name a few.
Laguna Blends highlight 2 eye-catching statistics on first glance of their home page:
1) The global wellness industry is a $3.4 Trillion market
2) Over 2 billion Cups of Coffee are consumed daily
Laguna's strategy of launching their initial products, that will focus on the nutritional and health-related benefits of the hemp seed, is pure marketing genius.
Starbucks advertises a new coffee product, that contains 20 grams of protein. It comes with very few additional health benefits.
Compare that with Laguna's whey and hemp-infused soluble (Caffé) coffee. The flavor has an aroma of rich Arabica coffee, with the mouth feel of hot chocolate.
The proprietary formula is rich in protein and comes in convenient single use packaging for nutrition on-the-go.
The hemp seeds used contain 33% protein, and all 20 known essential amino acids. It's the only edible oil that holds the perfect ratio of Omega 6 to Omega 3 essential fatty acids, as recommended by the World Health Organization.
As the Global functional beverage market revenues head towards $100 billion, Laguna is in a unique position with their recent Health Canada announcement.
Laguna's Pro369 is a combination of hemp protein, panax ginseng and micro-encapsulated hemp oil, with 13g of protein and 2.9g of Omegas 3,6 & 9.
The product is easy to carry and combine in liquid or a smoothie, and is the first totally soluble protein powder.
On September 22, 2015. The Minister of Health granted Laguna a product license for its PRO369 Tropical Powder. This is an important milestone, and it's one of the first hemp flavoured products approved for sale in Canada.
Health claims include:
- A source of protein that helps build and repair body tissues.
- Source of amino acids involved in muscle protein synthesis.
- Assists in the building of lean muscle.
- An adaptogen to help maintain a healthy immune system.
- Supportive therapy for the promotion of healthy glucose levels.
On September 28th, Laguna announced that an initial purchase order had been placed with manufacturing partner PNP Pharmaceuticals, to deliver 16,667 boxes of Caffe to Laguna within the next 8-10 weeks. That works out to a little over 500,000 cups of coffee.
It's interesting to note that a single serving of Laguna Caffé, and one PRO369, plus 2 eggs will get you well beyond half way, to the average daily protein requirement.
Hemp products in the U.S. are a US$500 million industry. In Canada, sales in the sector amounted to CA$50 million and is forecasted to double in 2015 to $100 million.
Other Benefits from Hemp seed food products include:
- More allergy-free than many other seeds.
- Helps excrete toxins from the body.
- High amounts of vitamin E and trace minerals.
- Easily digestible.
- No phytic acid (like other soy product)
- Absolutely safe and no known side effects.
- Used to treat nutritional deficiencies brought on by tuberculosis.
- Reduces the chances of a fatal cardiac arrhythmia or a heart attack.
- Reduces the amount of cholesterol in the body.
- The richest known source of polyunsaturated essential fatty acids.
- Preventing skin from sagging due to aging.
- Encourages healthy moist skin.
The U.S. coffee industry total revenue is $40 Billion and growing.
In 2014, the National Coffee Association estimated that 61 percent of adults drink coffee daily. Combine that with the uptrend in protein supplement consumption and Laguna's hemp coffee - that actually tastes good -makes for an exciting upside for investors and distributors.
A few other coffee stats:
- Specialty coffee sales account for 51% of the coffee industry
- 400 million cups of coffee consumed per day
- Keurig estimates 9.8 billion K-cup packs were sold in 2014, a 13% increase from 2013
- Single serve cup coffee market to grow annually by 25%
Laguna is positioned with its healthy hemp products to gain significant market share by acquiring new affiliates and customers.
They are already attracting leaders from other Network Marketing companies such as Organo Gold.
Organo Gold, founded in 2008, was launched to bring Ganoderma-infused coffee and other products to the market.
In 2008, Organo Gold sold US$2 million of healthy coffee. Organo Gold's gross revenues then grew from US$35 million in 2010, to $150 million in 2011 and anticipate over $220 million this year.
The top 3 leaders at Organo Gold are expected to earn $19.2 mil in 2015
Organo Gold is still in a stage of major growth and is expected to have 1 million distributors by 2015.
The Zija, Herbalife, Nature's Sunshine connection and what it may mean to Laguna:
To illustrate the significance of having a successful pre-existing distribution network, look no further than Ken Brailsford, who is considered to be the "Grand Daddy" in the Home Business Industry:
- Founder and President of 3 Mega Success stories
- Over 35 years in the direct sales industry (Billions of dollars in sales)
- Called the "Father of Herbal Encapsulation” for introducing herb capsules into the market during the 1970s.
- Produced two billion capsules annually.
- President and CEO of Nature's Sunshine (Market Cap $218 million) for over 30 years. (retired in 1997)
- Top 3 executives presently at Nature's Sunshine all come from Herbalife (Market Cap $4.95 Billion)
- Came out of retirement to launch Zija MLM in 2005
- 2014 Revenue: $144 million and expecting 20 to 30% growth in 2015
- Ranked fastest growing company in Utah in 2014
Conclusion
Nature's Sunshine (NATR) reported a total revenue of $165,125 million in the first half of 2015. It looks like the top 3 executives that left Herbalife to run NATR are doing a great job.
Brailsford's Zija, foresee a banner year as well. This clearly illuminates how important strong experienced leadership with a track record is in attracting, and keeping loyal distributors, which is the lifeblood of the network marketing business.
Who else will Laguna attract with their proprietary healthy hemp-related products?

Laguna Blends Promises To Change Direct Selling Perception
(Business for Home Magazine receives 3.5 – 4 million unique visitors per year)

He knows network marketing, aka bugging everyone you know to buy the stuff you represent, has a major negative stigma.
So Stuart Gray, the CEO of Kelowna-based hemp beverage company Laguna Blends, vows to make his direct selling company different. “We’re facing the negativity up front,” said Gray.
“We have what we believe to be the game changer in the direct selling game. It’s the cool technology at LagunaWorld.com with the kind of virtual community where members can train and recruit other members and customers an not be embarrassed.”
The virtual world is impressive.
The Laguna Blends campus is on the ocean in beautiful, palm-treed Laguna Beach, Calif. and has potential customers via email for slick presentations ranging from 90 seconds to several minutes.
Laguna has two main products: an instant coffee with hemp protein and PRO369, a hemp protein power to mix with water or milk or blend into a smoothie.
“With all the hype about medical marijuana, we found the bigger opportunity is actually in the nutritional benefits of hemp,” said Gray.
“They are both from the same plant, but hemp doesn’t have the chemical that makes you high.”
In fact, Laguna Blends’ hemp drinks can make six Health Canada claims such as building and repairing body tissues, improved muscle protein synthesis, building of lean muscle, maintain healthy immune system, promote healthy glucose levels and help relieve nervousness.
Laguna Blends products are used and endorsed by football wide receiver Emmanuel Arceneaux of the B.C. Lions.
Shares of Laguna Blends have also just started to to trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange.
