New York, NY, Jan. 11, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- Dewmar International BMC, Inc. (OTCPINK: DEWM) announced today that it has secured and signed an agreement for an office address and
space on North 7th Street in downtown Louisville, Kentucky which is considered by most hemp experts to be the hemp
capital of the United States. The production of hemp in Kentucky dates back to the 18th century and Kentucky has produced more hemp
than any other state in the country.
Kentucky was by far the greatest producer of hemp in the United States in the 18th and 19th centuries. In the early
1900’s, Kentucky was responsible for 75% of the hemp fiber production in the United States. Led by Senate Majority
Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the Farm Bill Act of 2018 which included the Hemp Farming Act of 2018 removed hemp as a Schedule 1 controlled substance making it
a legal agricultural crop for the first time in decades. Dewmar International understands the importance of securing a foothold in
Kentucky in hemp country. This new office address in Kentucky is also important for Dewmar as the company engages in further
discussions with Canadian licensing partners.
Immediately after the 2018 Farm Bill became law on December 20, 2018, the FDA reiterated the safety of hemp
products. Specifically, FDA Commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb stated that hempseeds, hemp protein and hemp oil are
all recognized as generally recognized accepted as safe (GRAS). This means that products derived from hemp can be
legally marketed in human foods without further food additive approvals and barring any unsubstantiated health and treatment
claims. Kush Cakes premium relaxation brownies, the country’s top selling hemp-infused brownie, has been on the market
since 2011. Kush Cakes contain hemp protein. Dewmar manages this brand under its seasoned
wholly-owned subsidiary United States Hemp Corporation. The market for this and other hemp-derived products are
wide open for companies and Dewmar International has an 8 year lead on most.
Bruce Linton, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Canopy Growth, remarked right after the passage of the Farm Bill by saying, “Canopy Growth
commends the United States government for passing the Farm Bill, a transformative piece of legislation that will create jobs and
meaningful economic impact across the United States.”
Marco Moran, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Dewmar International, commented, “This is just another one of
many efforts in our long-term plan to create a powerful company while building relationships in Canada and creating a foothold in
the hemp market. Securing an office in Louisville is just another step in the maturation process to have more products in the
marketplace as we are open to assess mutually beneficial and highly profitable partnership opportunities with like-minded business
enterprises.”
Investors and interested readers are encouraged to continue watching the market for further developments

marketplace as Dewmar continues to build a stronghold in Kentucky.
