Naturally Splendid Receives $924,000 Purchase Order
for Hemp Food Products from Korean Company
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - (February 3, 2016) - Naturally Splendid Enterprises Ltd. (“Naturally Splendid”) (FRANKFURT:50N) (TSX VENTURE:NSP) (OTC:NSPDF) is pleased to announcethat it has received an initial purchase order for $924,000 CDN from the Korea Beauty & Health Care Co., Ltd. based in South Korea. The first shipment of 20 metric tonnes of hulled hemp seeds leaves the Naturally Splendid distribution centre in Burnaby, BC on February 5, 2016 and is destined for the Port of Busan in South Korea.
Korea Beauty & Health Care Co., Ltd. (KBH) was established in 2003 and has a successful track record bringing a variety of products to the South Korean marketplace in the area of cosmetics, household items, functional foods, and medical equipment. KBH was certified as a food manufacturer and cosmetic manufacturer in 2015 and is also a product developer with its own R&D facility. The Company currently employs 62 people and generated revenue of approximately 12,000,000,000 Won ($14,000,000 CDN) in 2015 via online shopping, offline shopping, traditional retail and TV shopping channels. KBH will be marketing the NATERA® brand through online shopping, offline shopping, traditional retail and TV shopping channels.
Craig Goodwin, CEO of Naturally Splendid Enterprises, reports, “This initial order is secured by an irrevocable letter of credit which is a recognized financial instrument for international business. All in all, this is a significant day in the development of Naturally Splendid. As I’ve stated on several occasions, much of 2015 was focused on acquiring technology and processing capacity as well as the personnel to execute our vision. I believe that 2016 will be the year when our efforts will be translated into multiple revenue streams. The South Korean opportunity secures us a foothold in the growing Asian market. We see increased interest for our hemp food products in Asia and we are in advanced discussions with several other groups in Asia and anticipate additional purchase orders from the region in due course”.
“I would also like to thank the Canadian government for their support as we expand our sales efforts in Asia. Naturally Splendid is now considering attending trade missions as a part of a Canadian contingent in Singapore and South Korea over the next several months to establish new business contacts”, adds Goodwin.
South Korea’s population is 49.3 million and, in terms of market size, the nation’s economy ranks 11th in the world by nominal GDP and 13th by purchasing power parity. As seniors become a larger segment of the population, the South Korean government is increasingly concerned about keeping them fit and in good health. Government campaigns promoting healthy living and eating have led to increased consumption of healthy food items.
