DALLAS, Dec. 08, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As we celebrate our first complete year of the formation of Rocky Mountain High Brands, Inc. (OTCPK:RMHB), I thought it would be prudent to take a look at our accomplishments to date, as well as take a glimpse at what we would like to accomplish in our second year of existence.
Although the corporation was established in July 2014, many of us here at Rocky Mountain High Brands like to believe the true first day of the company is February 17, 2015. That date marks the day that we produced the first 45,000 cases of our delicious hemp beverages. By Mid-March, we had shipped product to a few distributors and listed the product on AMAZON.com. The response at AMAZON.com was overwhelming, and we successfully sold out of inventory in the first 24 hours of our listing.
Since the initial production run, we have produced more than 2.7 million cans to date, and received our first international order of one million cans of Rocky Mountain High for retail sale in Canada. We have also created a distribution network that now reaches thirteen (13) states. Rocky Mountain High is adding new distributors each month, and we have now reached the point where several of the distributors are doing extremely well. M&S Distributing stands out with a territory which now encompasses seven (7) states and boasts a fleet of eleven (11) Rocky Mountain High wrapped vans. M&S Distributing has just received product specifically designated for a large regional retail chain of stores.

In November, Rocky Mountain High Brands signed an agreement with the Comanche family of Oklahoma to produce and market a line of hemp healthy infused flavored waters derived from the "Healing Spring Waters" located in the Slick Hills at the base of the Wichita Mountains. Rocky Mountain High has made arrangements to install a pumping station on the property which will allow us to haul "Healing Spring Water" directly to our facility in Carrollton, Texas for bottling. The healthy hemp infused flavored water products should be introduced to the market in the first half of 2016, along with Natural Healing Spring Waters.
We are excited to announce that Rocky Mountain High Brands will sign an agreement with the cutting edge New York based social media company oneQube this week. oneQube personnel possess over eighty (80) years of collective experience in building social media platforms for businesses. oneQube finds new people to follow, and with whom to engage, creating predictable models of audience growth. oneQube boasts a perfected technology and methodology approach that will build a strong foundation for the Rocky Mountain High Brands awareness.

The next production run will be scheduled for some time in February and will feature the new 16 ounce hemp leaf can. The new larger cans will create a greater consumer value and will allow us to compete with Monster Energy and Red Bull for a larger portion of the energy drink market.
We are preparing to produce our new hemp-infused Protein, Energy and Chia Crisp bar. These delicious new bars will each contain 100 milligrams of hemp, thus being quite nutritious. Additionally, these Rocky Mountain High branded bars will be non-GMO and Gluten free.
Our Hemp Energy shots will also be produced in the first quarter of 2016. These products, combined with what we already have in development and production, places Rocky Mountain High well on the way to developing a complete product line of nutritious hemp products.
We are also in the final development stages of a line-up of four (4) new CBD-infused beverages. We are planning to have these products ready for sale in the second quarter of 2016.
Our trip to New York was very successful, whereby we were the sole sponsor of the Rashad Jennings Foundation GIANT Night of Comedy Event. This foundation’s mission is to inspire youth by making education fun, to provide mentorship for individual success, and to promote health and fitness worldwide. For further information, please view: www.rashadjennings.com. In attendance was Dr. Oz, John Amos and many New York Giants and New York Jets football players. We want to thank the Epic Group of NY and all of their associates for all of their assistance in making this big event happen. www.rockymtnhighny.com
Rocky Mountain High would also like to thank all shareholders for their patience on the audit which should be posted this month. We are now preparing the Form 10 documentation for moving to the OTC Bulletin Board (OTCBB). This has been a long process due to constant growth, and Rocky Mountain High is looking forward to demonstrating greater transparency by listing on the OTCBB. The OTCBB listing will attract institutional and private investors which in turn will fuel faster corporate growth due to increased valuation.
Sincerely,
Tom Shuman
President / CEO
