Sugarmade, Inc. (SGMD) Sees Hydroponic Supply Demand Surge as CBD Interest Rises

The TechMediaWire Podcast

Growing demand for CBD is increasing pressure on companies that provide key cultivation equipment and industry supplies.

As part of its commitment to build a large and well-supplied sales channel, hydroponic supplier Sugarmade Inc. (OTCQB: SGMD) is in the process of making acquisition of companies that supply the hemp industry. An increasing need for supplies is coming from companies such as Canopy Growth Corporation (TSX: WEED) (NYSE: CGC), a major cultivator and processor making moves on the CBD drinks and well-being markets. Cronos Group Inc. (TSX: CRON) (NASDAQ: CRON) has entered into a supply agreement with another provider to ensure the materials it needs for its products. Global efforts by companies such as New Age Beverages Corporation (NASDAQ: NBEV) and Aphria (TSX: APHA) (NYSE: APHA) may further strain U.S. supply chains, due to greater cultivation restrictions in other parts of the world.
