LARGE-SCALE HEMP PROCESSING COMPLETED FOR    GLOBAL HEMP GROUP

More than 40 tons of hemp seed has been processed for raw materials, consumer markets

LOS ANGELES -- (Marketwired - July 21, 2014) -- GLOBAL HEMP GROUP INC. (“GHG” or the “Company”)(OTCQB:GBHPF)(CSE:GHG) (FRANKFURT:GHG) announced today it has processed 42 tons of hemp seed into raw materials and products to be delivered to its subsidiary, HempNatura™.

With today’s announcement, GHG has now fully enacted its “soil-to-shelf” strategy. GHG previously took delivery of 93,000 lbs. of hemp seed from NeverIdle Farms Ltd., a farming partner in Alberta, Canada, and is utilizing the services of hemp processers to create value-added materials and consumer market products. The products will be further processed, distributed and retailed by HempNatura, of which GHG owns 20 percent, giving GHG a presence at every stage of the hemp foods supply chain.

Of the seed delivered, 28 tons has been processed into approximately 15,000 lbs. of hemp oil (using a cutting-edge cold press process) and 45,000 lbs. of seed cake now being milled into hemp protein powder and hemp flour. A further 12 tons of seed has been de-hulled producing over 10,000 lbs. of hemp nut to be processed into HempNatura’s proprietary consumer products.

“HempNatura establishes a connection between consumers and farmers, and we are proud to offer quality, sustainably-produced products that benefit consumers, farmers and the land,” said Jim Saunders, President and CEO of HempNatura, which currently offers consumer products including Hemp Cocoa Nibs™, Hemp Smart Seed™ and Hempower™ protein powder.

GHG also recently announced contracts with a farming consortium in Alberta to grow hemp on 1,500 acres, with delivery set for October.
