MAUI, HI--(NewMediaWire - May 5, 2017) - Eco Science
Solutions, Inc. (OTCQB: ESSI), an eco-technology Company providing
solutions to the multi-billion-dollar health, wellness and
alternative medicine industry, today announced that it has signed a
Letter of Intent with Ga-Du Bank, Inc. for the purpose of acquiring
full ownership of the Bank in a stock and cash
transaction.
Upon the closing of the transaction, ESSI will operate the Bank
as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Eco Science Solutions, Inc. ESSI
will own and operate a financial banking division providing payment
processing, cash management and financial services to its customers
in the cannabis industry.
Additionally, the Bank's principals have engaged with prospects
in the marketplace whom have made expressions of interest, along
with preliminary commitments to deposit sums between Three-Hundred
and Six-Hundred Million Dollars ($300,000,000 and $600,000,000).
These amounts are currently being projected to be deposited within
the first sixty to one-hundred-eighty days following the
acquisition of the Bank by ESSI.
"All parties involved are enthusiastic about the Bank's
potential to financially serve the cannabis marketplace. Current
business owners working in medical marijuana are doing a tremendous
job, but are truly in need of formal banking services so they can
soundly manage their business finances," stated John Lewis, who is
both the current president of the Bank and a Governor of the
Central Bank of SCNRFP. Mr. Lewis continued with, "By combining
Ga-Du Bank with Eco Science Solutions, we see how our synergies
will create an important financial institution to serve a category
that is in need of a fully integrated vertical product
suite."
"Our entire team is thrilled by the prospect of the acquisition
of the Ga-Du Bank by ESSI," said Andy Tucker, Senior Advisor to of
Ga-Du Bank. Mr. Tucker continued, "We believe that in joining
forces with the ESSI team, we can deliver a comprehensive suite of
financial products that addresses the current needs of currently
what is a cash-driven industry, allowing ESSI to become a break-out
leader for the sector."
"It has been our vision from day one that, in order to fully
service the cannabis industry and execute on our business plan, we
needed to be creative in securing and offering a banking platform
that further differentiates us from everyone in our category,"
stated Jeff Taylor, Chief Executive Officer of Eco Science
Solutions, Inc. Mr. Taylor continued, "The deal with Ga-Du Bank is
a game-changer for not only ESSI, but everyone in the cannabis
industry. This new division of our Company will put us years ahead
of our goal to create a full-service marketplace among growers,
suppliers, distributors, retailers and consumers."
