Isodiol’s Nano-Amplified CBD Fueled Completion of Definitive Equity Agreement by Laguna Blends with Carlsbad Naturals

CARLSBAD, CA / ACCESSWIRE / January 30, 2017 / ISO International, LLC (“Isodiol“) is proud to announce that its proprietary nano-amplified cannabinoids fueled the completion of a definitive equity agreement by Laguna Blends (CNSX: LAG) (OTC PINK: LAGBF) (FSE: LB6A.F) with the Company’s joint venture, Carlsbad Naturals, LLC.

Carlsbad Naturals, LLC, owns and operates the brand name CBD Naturals, a unique bottled water consumer product that is widely recognized in the U.S. hemp-infused bottled water market. CBD Naturals alkaline bottled water ingredients include nano-amplified cannabinoids from Isodiol plus vitamins and antioxidants.

Laguna Blends, a Canadian headquartered company, markets and distributes hemp-based products. Laguna Blends sales expansion of CBD Naturals will be through its Club 8 online marketplace and via its business-to-business (B2B) channels in the U.S. and Canada.

Jared Berry, CEO of Isodiol, states, “Everyone at Isodiol is excited and proud to supply our proprietary nano-amplified cannabinoids to Laguna Blends through CBD Naturals bottled water. With the completion of the definitive agreement between Laguna Blends and Carlsbad Naturals, the focus is now on expanding distribution of CBD Naturals’ unique hemp cannabinoid-infused bottled water in both the U.S. and Canadian bottled water markets. Isodiol feels that the addition of nano-amplified cannabinoids to existing consumer products will create new market opportunities. Laguna Blends and CBD Naturals is a prime example.”

Ray Grimm, President & CEO of Laguna Blends, states, “The partnership with Carlsbad Naturals firmly solidifies Laguna Blends as a unique player in the multibillion dollar bottled water and functional beverage industry. Carlsbad Naturals CBD water was formulated with the sole purpose of creating a high alkaline water with the added benefits. Many believe this to be the next evolution in the water industry, providing unique health benefits due to the proprietary nanotechnology. Carlsbad Naturals CBD water provides antioxidants at the cellular level along with providing cellular hydration and energy. Laguna Blends is currently in discussions with Carlsbad Naturals regarding further business opportunities including but not limited to the acquisition of controlling interest.”

Terms of the definitive equity agreement are such that Laguna Blends has up to 75 days to acquire a 19% equity stake in Carlsbad Naturals. Laguna Blends will initially purchase nineteen percent (19%) equity interest in Carlsbad Naturals for a one-time payment of $250,000 USD paid for in cash plus $546,000 paid for in Laguna Blends’ common shares for a total purchase price of $796,000.00 USD. Laguna Blends is currently in discussions with Carlsbad Naturals about acquiring additional equity interest, for majority control.

The common shares issued for the initial 19% are subject to lock up and or leak out provisions whereby the first 1/12 of the common shares will be released 4 months and a day after issuance. 1/12 will be issued every subsequent month thereafter.

Charles Vest, VP of Sales of Laguna Blends, Inc.’s new hemp and CBD on-line marketplace “Club 8” said, “According to new data from Arcview Market Research, cannabis consumers in North America spent a combined $53 billion in cannabis consumables in 2016. The legal supply of cannabis product increases in North America because several US states have recently joined the list of legalizers while at the same time lawmakers are expected to begin the process of recreational legalization in Canada later this year. The estimated $53 billion in sales is more than was generated by McDonald’s and Starbucks combined in 2016.”

Vest adds, “The high amount of existing consumers differentiates cannabis from other major consumer-market investment opportunities in history. There is a huge demand for clean cannabis products in our industry today. We just need to move demand for an already widely-popular product into safe and legal channels. Experts see the biggest growth in sectors like edibles and concentrates. It is much easier and safer to buy these products from a trusted retailer than to make them at home. Not only Carlsbad Naturals’ nano-amplified CBD water but all of our current and upcoming products in ‘Club 8’ will benefit from this massive and unstoppable growth trend.”
