MJ Munchies (NGTF) Building IP Portfolio to Strengthen Recreational Cannabis Edibles Positioning, Secures HalfBakedCBD.com
Tarrytown, NY, July 17, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MJ Munchies, a wholly owned subsidiary of NightFood Holdings, Inc. (OTC: NGTF), today announced that the first round of research on “Project X” has been successfully completed.
Pinnacle IP, who handles all intellectual property matters for the Company, will be preparing patent paperwork for submission.
“We are developing this ‘Project X’ intellectual property primarily to further enhance the value of our Half-Baked brand,” explained CEO Sean Folkson. “The decisions we’re making today are being made with the goal of Half-Baked being extremely powerful when it really matters. It is still very early in the recreational THC edibles space. To date, fewer than 10 states have legalized recreational use. Most experts predict federal legalization in the coming years, and we expect Half-Baked to be an important edibles player on the national level.”
With stringent restrictions expected on advertising of recreational edibles, Management expects branding to be a particularly important factor in this space. Management believes “Half-Baked” is an extremely powerful brand name, and is actively engaged in licensing discussions with a focus on both the recreational THC edibles space, and in the CBD space.
To facilitate a possible licensing agreement with an existing CBD products operator, the Company recently secured the web domain HalfBakedCBD.com.
“We are going about this surgically and strategically. I've stated in the past that I believe Half-Baked is simply the best name possible in the edibles space, and we're taking steps to build additional power behind the brand as we prepare to fully enter the space,” continued Folkson. “There has been tremendous progress made recently on all fronts for NGTF and we will continue to update investors as appropriate.”
