role as spokesperson, product expert and cannabis educator for the
Company. On a personal note, I am honored to have had the opportunity to
be CEO of Medical Marijuana, Inc. and look forward to my continued role.
Since our group founded this industry in 2011 my vision for CBD has
become a reality with the amazing acceptance by the general public as well as
the medical community. I continue to believe that almost everything in
this industry remains at an early-stage, ground-floor level.”
“I am
honored to take on these positions within our Company,” said Chairman and CEO
Blake Schroeder. “This is and always has been a ‘Company of Firsts’ and we owe
much of our pioneering in the area of product development, market education and
market acceptance of non-psychoactive cannabis products to the knowledge and
insight of Dr. Titus. His continued role as our spokesperson is especially
positive for the Company.”
During his
time at the Company, Mr. Schroeder’s key contributions include international
market development, financial performance management, product development,
rebranding efforts, and operational development of the Company as a whole.
Since Schroeder became CEO of Kannaway®, the Company’s revenue has grown
from $2 million in annual sales to nearly $70 million in
annual sales in 2019.

and regulatory insight to overseeing all aspects of global sales, product
