Nanaimo, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 13, 2019) - Salvation Botanicals Ltd. ("Salvation" or the "Company"), a company that operates one of the first fully-licensed Analytics Laboratories in Canada and is accredited by Health Canada to test cannabis and derivative products for Licensed Producers, announced today that company executives will be attending the 16th Annual Largest Hemp Fair in the World, Spannabis 2019, in Barcelona, Spain, March 15 through March 17, 2019.

Attending this internationally recognized convention provides Salvation with the opportunity to network with leaders in the industry and further their goal of expansion into the global cannabis market. According to The Motley Fool, global marijuana sales are expected to grow 38% to nearly $17 billion this year. Additionally, a report by Arcview Market Research and BDS Analytics stated the cannabis industry had $9.5 billion in worldwide revenue in 2017, and an estimated $12.2 billion last year.

Canada is the only G7 country that has legalized cannabis for recreational and medical purposes. A recent report by Brightfield Group estimates that Canada's cannabis industry will be worth $5 billion by 2021.

"Salvation is actively pursuing expansion into the European, South American and Australian markets. While the international trade in cannabinoids is not well established, we have sought opportunities to add value to cultivators in Europe using our technology," said Salvation Botanicals CEO Rob McIntyre. "Spannabis is an ideal opportunity to continue our discussions with European hemp and cannabis industry participants. Our expertise in Canadian genetics, post-harvest equipment, analytical testing, and high volume extraction and processing is in demand internationally, and the conference brings the global industry leaders together under one roof."

Spannabis is known as an event of culture and innovation within the cannabis industry. As the world's largest hemp exposition and trade show, there is expected to be more than 300 exhibitors who are demonstrating the latest research and developments in the industry.
