Exclusive Distribution Agreement Signed Between Hempacco and CBDAY in India and Thailand
Hempacco Co, Inc. (HPCO) has signed an exclusive distribution agreement with CBDAY Global Private Limited to sell cannabis products in India and Thailand.

According to a report by Benzinga on December 6th, the cannabis tobacco company Hempacco Co, Inc. (code: HPCO) has announced that it has signed an exclusive distribution agreement with CBDAY Global Private Limited (a company that imports, exports, distributes, and sells hemp-based products in India and Asia).

 

According to the agreement, CBDAY will have exclusive sales rights for Hempacco's cannabis and CBD products in India and Thailand. The initial offerings will include Cheech & Chong and Rick Ross' marijuana products, which will be available for purchase on CBDAY's flagship website. These premium cannabis products will be distributed throughout the Asia region via CBDAY's extensive online and offline sales channels. This expansion reflects their commitment to providing high-quality hemp and CBD products to consumers worldwide.

 

The Indian market holds immense potential for cannabis-based products due to the country's long-standing use of the hemp plant for various purposes. In certain regions of India, particularly the state of Uttar Pradesh, some tribal communities may engage in the use of marijuana, and related laws might have a degree of leniency towards them.
