TORONTO, ON, Jan. 17, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — via NEWMEDIAWIRE — Tree of Knowledge International Corp. (CSE: TOKI; OTC PINK: TRKWF(the “Company” or “CBD“) is pleased to announce that CBD&CBN Ltd. (“CBD&CBN“) a company registered in the UK and headquartered in London, England is slated to launch its white label of TOK’s brand in the UK through the worldwide web. The CBD&CBN brand was developed pursuant to a white label agreement between TOK and CBD&CBN dated November 19, 2018.

The Company’s strategy in the UK includes the premium product line supplied for distribution under CBD&CBN’s brand. The Company is prepared for success and current operations are capable of a one week turn around on order fulfillment before packaging and customs.

CBD&CBN is set to commence operations late this month and has made its first purchase order of US$50,000 from the Company. CBD&CBN operates under the direction of Stephen Oliver, former HM Customs Investigator and lawyer, and Andy Eyre, former military and entrepreneur, two individuals with a robust combined industry history and skill set. In its initial phase CBN&CBD is focused on generating exposure and building brand recognition through a comprehensive e-commerce strategy. CBD&CBN is supported by Mr. George Pessios, Software Engineer, IOS Developer and Web Designer, and founding member CBD&CBN, and Nick Gower, founding member and Search Engine Optimization expert.

Jean-Paul Gaillard, CEO of the Company, commented: “Their combined professional track record and wealth of knowledge has laid a foundation for Tree of Knowledge’s aggressive strategy to create a dominant presence in the rapidly evolving CBD sector in the European Marketplace.”

Founded in 2015, the Company launched its EVR CBD product line with the purpose of creating the finest quality CBD Hemp Oil in the world. EVR CBD now sells CBD Hemp Oil to customers throughout the US, Europe and South America, and sells isolates into Australia. As additional territories follow the lead of the United States and legalize CBD hemp oil, the Company expects that additional consumers will discover its benefits. The Company aspires to have its EVR CBD brand as the world’s most trusted source for CBD products.

According to the Cannabis Trades Association UK, the consumer base in the CBD market in the UK has doubled from 125,000 to 250,000 between 2017 and 2018. Currently in the UK, the number of people using CBD oil is estimated to have reached around 300,000. According to Verdict.co.uk, an online media publisher: “The rise in popularity has followed a loosening of legal restrictions around the world. Although CBD-based products have been commercially available in the UK for some time, they appear to be gaining greater mainstream use and acceptance.” Reports by Forbes indicate that the global cannabidiol (CBD) market is estimated to grow by 700% and could be worth $2.1 billion by 2020.
