ST. PETERSBURG, FL, April 7, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FutureWorld (OTCQB: FWDG), a U.S. Diversified
Holding Company formed to capitalize on the burgeoning technology
markets globally, announces today that HempTech is to acquire
interest in Verecis Corporation to further develop CaNNaTRAK®
product line for the legal medical marijuana and the industrial
hemp markets. Verecis has been a pioneer in Enterprise Asset
Management industry for the Fortune 500 for more than a decade.
Seed to sale control and effective tracking has become a choke
point in the growth of the legal medical marijuana industry.
HempTech, together with Verecis, will mitigate and alleviate this
considerable concern for current States and any future States
allowing the creation of the legal medical marijuana industry.
Compliance and governance will be the big drivers in adoption and
growth of the medical marijuana industry nationwide and globally.
Without a proper compliance and governance framework, legal medical
marijuana may encounter considerable roadblocks for mass acceptance
and adoption. The acquisition will provide substantial ownership
and rights to the intellectual property required for development,
sale and expansion of CaNNaTRAK nationally. The acquisition detail
will be noted on the forthcoming 8K.
CaNNaTRAK, as an Enterprise Asset Management System, tracks
governance Licensing, Seed Sourcing, cultivation and point of sales
of medicinal marijuana. CaNNaTRAK will utilize the latest in RFID
hardware and enterprise grade backend software to track Cannabis
all throughout its lifecycle for governance, monitoring and
profitability. A typical application of CaNNaTRAK will be as
following;
1- Cultivation -
CaNNaTRAK will tag all Cannabis stalks for security and inventory
purposes using passive and active RFID or Bar Codes.
2- Harvesting -
CaNNaTRAK will validate the data between cultivated and harvested
cannabis and provides efficiency matrix in conjunction with
HempTech's SmartSense technology.
3- Processing -
CaNNaTRAK's dataset from cultivation to harvest will evaluate the
processing results and its efficiency. CaNNaTRAK will also monitor
the licensing consideration before shipment to the retail centers
or dispensers.
4- Packaging and
Point of Sale - CaNNaTRAK will assess and control the quantity of
the merchandise, its estimated retail value, its inventory level
and finally record associated medical cards with dispensed cannabis
at the point of sale.
5- Compliance -
CaNNaTRAK will maintain licensing compliance and audit readiness
with State, Local and Federal mandatory requirements.
6- Integration -
CaNNaTRAK will integrate its technology with CaNNaBoX to maintain
tight compliance in the case of the medical permits for dispensing
marijuana.
Due to the State law, legal governance, compliance and tax
reasons, we believe CaNNaTRAK will be an invaluable tool for legal
compliance and profitability from growers to dispensers of the
legal medicinal marijuana.
We are in the process of sales and marketing procedures for
CaNNaTRAK in Colorado, California and other States. We expect to be
the de facto ERP tracking system in the State of Florida with the
approval of the Medical Marijuana by the end of 2014.
