Leading omni-direct lifestyle company Youngevity International (NASDAQ: YGYI) today announced that it has completed closing of the acquisition of the assets of Khrysos Global –a Tampa, Florida manufacturer of hemp-based CBD extraction equipment. According to the update, the acquisition intends to establish YGYI’s newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary, Khrysos Industries, Inc, as a global player in the field-to-finish hemp-CBD oil, isolate, and distillate market. The move further gives YGYI ownership of INX Laboratories and its testing facilities, enabling the company with unprecedented capabilities in the formulation, quality control and testing standards of its CBD products. “We set out a plan to create a vertical opportunity in the hemp space,” YGYI President and CFO Dave Briskie said of the acquisition. “This is a significant step as it relates to the production, cultivation, and extraction of hemp, CBD oil, as well as other cannabinoids. We proudly welcome Dwayne Dundore, as the President of newly formed Khrysos Industries along with his entire and very capable team at Khrysos and INX Labs.”
