Colorado Cannabis Extraction Company Mile High Labs Raises $35 Million for International Expansion

Mile High Labs Raises $35 Million Series A, the Largest in Cannabis Market History

The round cements Mile High Labs’ position as the preeminent supplier of CBD ingredients globally

BOULDER, Colo. – Oct. 10, 2018 – Mile High Labs, the leading cannabinoid extractor in the world, has announced a $35 million Series A financing with investment from institutional and private equity investors. This represents the largest Series A financing in cannabis market history. Mile High Labs will utilize the capital to expand the production capacity of its premium Cannabidiol (CBD) extracts to meet rapidly increasing market demand. The funding will also support Mile High Labs’ continued international expansion.

According to market research provider Brightfield Group, the hemp CBD market is projected to reach $22 billion by 2022, outpacing the rest of the cannabis market combined.

We believe the CBD market is in the early stages of a 20-year secular growth trend, the size and scope of which the world’s largest Consumer Packaged Goods companies cannot ignore. We are already the CBD platform of choice for many of the market’s most recognizable brands and we welcome the chance to work with anyone seeking to explore this immense opportunity.

Mile High Labs CFO Jon Hilley

Mile High Labs’ proprietary extraction processes and equipment exceed the highest regulatory standards and produce the purest and most consistent cannabinoids on the market. The company operates the only end-to-end certified GMP cannabis extraction facility in the Western Hemisphere.

“At Mile High Labs, understanding regulatory pathways and achieving standard-setting compliance results are foundational to our approach,” says Mile High Labs CTO Stephen Mueller. “The importance of our GMP certification cannot be understated as we are responsible for delivering safe, quality ingredients to many of the world’s most trusted brands.”

“Mile High Labs’ $35 million series A underscores the exponential growth in the CBD market,” says Michael Brosgart of The Arcview Group, publishers of the cannabis industry’s most cited market research. “With a projected CBD market size growing 40-fold over the next three years, this round of funding highlights the ever-increasing interest in this space by both institutional investors and consumers.”

This record-breaking investment is a reflection of the growth in demand for quality CBD products and Mile High Labs’ unique ability to meet that demand. In the first quarter of 2019, we will deploy two of our proprietary “Mile High Monster” extraction plants that will allow us to lead the market with an output that is roughly 20 times the capacity of the nearest competitor. Global demand is exploding, and we are well positioned to meet that demand.
