NEW YORK, March 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
New Frontier Data CEO, Giadha Aguirre De Carcer said: "During this tough economy, states are looking for any way to close their budget shortfalls and it appears that cannabis may hold an answer for them. New Frontier Data looked at the potential revenues that could be generated from state cannabis taxes and found that in this year alone, states could raise nearly $750 million and triple that number by 2020. These revenues will have a meaningful impact on state programs and provide governors with much needed breathing room in their budgets."
ChineseInvestors.com, Inc. (OTCQB: CIIX) just announced this morning that it has established and registered XiBiDi Biotechnology Co., Ltd., in the Pudong Free-Trade Area in Shanghai, with registered capital requirements of $1.45 million USD over the next 10 years. XiBiDi Biotechnology will focus on the online and offline sales of health products, including hemp-derived CBD (cannabidiol) oil, as well as hemp-based food and beverages. Notably, the Chinese character "XiBiDi" is homophonic to "CBD" in English.
"I am delighted about the establishment and registration of our new hemp company," says CIIX Founder and CEO, Warren Wang. "XiBiDi Biotechnology is strategically located in the Pudong Free-Trade Area of Shanghai, China, where we have the opportunity to reach a consumer base of nearly 1.4 billion people. We believe that this large population affords XiBiDi an outstanding opportunity to be the provider of choice for natural hemp products."
XiBiDi Biotechnology will be the operator of CIIX's recently launched CBD online store, http://www.ChineseCBDoil.com, which will primarily focus on selling, where-legal, hemp-based CBD nutrient and health products to Chinese-speaking customers worldwide, through the online retail process. CIIX is also in preparations to open a retail store based in the predominantly Chinese community of San Gabriel, California.
The establishment of XiBiDi Biotechnology supplements these ventures, as well as the Company's broader mission to develop its presence in the hemp industry. In addition to retail and direct sales, the Company will focus on the legal import of hemp-based (but not CBD oil products) health products in China - a population increasingly interested in the health benefits of hemp and CBD oil - and the export of hemp food and beverages to the United States, Canada and Europe. XiBiDi Biotechnology is registered as a wholly foreign enterprise, and the registration is expected to be completed by the end of March."

FinancialBuzz.com News Commentary
The fast-growing legal cannabis industry could become a major driver of the U.S. economy. According to a new report published by New Frontier Data, the legal cannabis market is projected to reach more than $24 billion by 2025, and generate $2.3 billion in state tax revenue from retail sales by 2020. Many states in the U.S. see significant economic benefits from legalizing cannabis. Colorado, where recreational cannabis has been legal since 2014, sold $1.3 billion of legal cannabis in 2016 and generated almost $200 million in tax revenue, according to the Colorado Department of Revenue tax data. The pace of cannabis legalization in the United States has accelerated and this could boost the economy, by creating more jobs and increasing state tax revenues. ChineseInvestors.com, Inc.
