GLOBAL HEMP GROUP ANNOUNCES ROBERT CALKIN AND GABRIEL GAUTHIER AS STRATEGIC ADVISORS

Robert Calkin and Gabriel Gauthier, two veterans of the cannabis and hemp industries, have agreed to join Global Hemp Group Inc.'s international advisory board as strategic advisers.

Mr. Calkin's experience in the cannabis industry is deep and broad. He founded CannaWorx Inc., which owns and operates the Cannabis Career Institute, founded in 2009, and Cannabis State University, founded in 2010. He has also written the curriculum for Oakland's Oaksterdam University, which was the basis for his 2008 cannabis entrepreneurship bible, Starting Your Own Medical Marijuana Delivery Service: The Mobile Caregiver's Handbook. He is currently the instructor of Delivery 102 at Oaksterdam University. In 2011, Mr. Calkin created the industry's leading job listing and business development resource, the Cannajobs website, the most comprehensive on-line source for news and information relating to the medical cannabis industry. Mr. Calkin's experience, knowledge and extensive network in the cannabis industry will be invaluable to the company as it embarks on cannabis-related projects going forward.

Mr. Gauthier is a pioneer in Canada in hemp construction. He brings to GHG a depth of experience and expertise in both hemp construction and hemp farming. Initially trained in landscape design, he then went to France for three years to train with Hemp Master Builders. After a two-year stint with Quebec's farm credit system, in 2003 he started his own hemp building company, ArtCan Enterprises. To date, it has undertaken more than 100 building and renovation projects using hemp technologies. In 2012, he expanded his interest to hemp cultivation and provided consulting services to prospective hemp farmers. He joined Groupe Orvert Ltd., a Quebec-based company promoting hemp cultivation and processing, whose present activities focus on importing selected hemp seed to develop hemp production, then transforming the hemp to high-value products. In this partnership, he farms about 250 hectares in Quebec in association with a number of other farmers. Mr. Gauthier's experience and knowledge in hemp cultivation, processing and construction will be an important addition to the company.

About ArtCan Enterprises

ArtCan, created in 2003, is one of the oldest hemp construction enterprises in North America designing and constructing buildings that are both more durable and more comfortable. Such buildings are also carbon neutral and more economical to operate. With the experience of building or renovating over 100 projects in Quebec and Ontario, AE offers training sessions on hemp construction and assists prospective homeowners who wish to build their own houses. AE is very active in research and development and has developed its own hemp hurd lime mixture, called Canalliance, used in building walls, floor slabs and renderings, and has improved hemp processing machinery for construction. AE has also ventured into hemp farming in partnership with a number of farmers to source the raw materials needed for its construction activities, as there is currently a lack of readily available raw material available in Central Canada.
