“The Father of CBD,” Mr. Tan Xin (Peter Tan

founded HMI Group in 2015 with the support of Mr. Zhang Ke, president of Huanan Group in China’s Liaoning province, covering the whole industrial chain of industrial hemp.  It was a partnership born of a realization about hemp that actually started when Tan was serving in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs working in goods supply in 1992.  Later, his military background, plus achievement of an MBA and work experience in America, brought him back to China with new skills to work in China’s Yunnan province.  It was there he found industrial hemp, which was planted by a company to provide industrial hemp fiber to meet the clothing demands of the Chinese army. Tan’s interest in the product grew the more he learned about its many uses, which instilled the goal to make a difference in the biopharmaceutical space by integrating military technology with civilian pharmaceutical processes. This interest has led him to leadership in the movement for legalization of hemp and to spearhead an organization that is positioned to be the game changer for a growing industry.

HMI Group company mission is to promote the industrial revolution of biomass to replace minerals and become the world leader in the hemp industry.  For years, HMI Group has made a positive contribution to promote industrial hemp development in China with outstanding achievements in setting industry standards. The company focuses on hemp whole industrial chain investment, from planting, extraction, R&D, production, and sales of industrial hemp-related products worldwide. The uses cover biopharmaceuticals, daily necessities, textile fiber, composite materials, biomass, and more.
