Medical and Recreational Marijuana Company Kaya Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB:KAYS) Set to Launch Retail Cannabis Delivery Service and Advances Plans for Kaya Cares Opioids-Cannabis Exchange Program

FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla., Dec. 11, 2017 -- Kaya Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB:KAYS), announced today that it has completed the processes necessary to launch its own home delivery service in Portland and Salem Oregon. The Company expects to operate 4 cars initially, with additional cars to be added as demand requires and as the company expands into other cities in Oregon.

In addition to providing added value and convenience for our customers, extending visibility and building brand recognition for the Kaya Shack™ brand, we believe that Home Delivery provides greater market penetration, by allowing sales throughout the geographic area that our stores are licensed in. There is no limit to the number of delivery vehicles that can service an individual area using just one store as a home base, so in effect we intend to use this service to construct additional “virtual” Kaya Shacks™ without the added costs of additional brick and mortar locations.

“We believe that this delivery service is the next step in the implementation of our business plan and part of our efforts to increase sales as we work to lower costs,” states Kaya Holdings CEO Craig Frank. “The delivery service,” Frank continues, “will permit the company to serve all areas of Portland and Salem – bringing the opportunity for all residents over the age of 21 to benefit from and enjoy our distinctive blend of high-quality cannabis at fair prices. We look forward to serving our existing customers and the many new customers we expect to bring into the Kaya Shack™ family.”

Additionally, KAYS confirmed that it continues to discuss implementation options with its attorneys for its Kaya Cares Opioid-Cannabis Exchange Program and expects to be launching the program in January. “We have spoken with our attorneys and have worked with them to structure a program that will allow individuals currently using opioids for pain management to explore the efficacy of cannabis for their needs at no cost to them,” states CEO Frank. “Our goal is to assist in the reduction of tragic deaths and destroyed lives that the opioid epidemic has inflicted on opioid addicts, their families, and all of us,” adds Kaya Holdings Senior Advisor W. David Jones. “We’re just trying to do our part.”  

The Kaya Cares program has received tremendous public support, which the Company appreciates and hopes continues to drive a conversation on the use of cannabis as a safe and effective opioid substitute. An example of the public support received is:
