CIM:Why did you decide to open a business in the CBD market?

SunIQ: Everyone on our team has had an experience with the medicinal benefits of the plant in a very personal way, whether for themselves or a close friend or colleague, healing from an acute injury, managing stress, helping with insomnia, relieving chronic pain, etc. We got very excited about all the changes happening on the regulatory front and the opportunity to bring these health and wellness benefits to a much broader population with hemp than the smaller target market of medicinal users in the MMJ space. Another major motivation for us has been working with farmers and revitalizing the farm economy. As it turns out this is an industry in dire need of structured business practices, and we have a highly experienced executive team with vast experience building markets and scaling companies, so all the elements came together and sparked our passion to build something great.
