Greg Herriott, President and Founder comments, “We are thoroughly delighted with our financial results. Our company is experiencing a very healthy growth rate… a rate which is most likely parallel with the growth of the overall hemp industry in Canada.”

Albeit, the Canadian hemp industry, like most emerging industries, has had its share of peaks and valleys. It seems however, the industry is leveling to a sustainable and positive rate of growth. Mr. Herriott notes, “The industry is seeing its first signs of maturity. More and more consumers are learning about many of the positive effects and attributes of hemp. Hempola has certainly had its share of ups and downs… we are now starting to see a much more consistent, month to month increase and we feel these increases are in direct proportion to the rate of awareness building in the marketplace.”
