FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla., June 27, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via OTC PR WIRE -- PotNetwork Holdings, Inc. (OTC Pink:POTN) announces that the Company is in the process of filing an amendment to its articles of incorporation with the state of Colorado for a name change from PotNetwork Holdings, Inc. to “BioTech Hemp, Inc.”.

Following the filing with the state of Colorado, the Company plans to file for a name listing and trading symbol change with FINRA.



As revenues year-to-date for 2018 already exceed $10 million, The Company’s repositioning initiative is designed to signal to the market its mission to be a continually thriving, socially-responsible family of brands dedicated to strengthening its evolving leadership position in the distribution and marketing of CBD products.This filing follows the recent announcement that its Board of Directors has directed the Company’s counsel to prepare a Form 10 to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, to become a fully reporting issuer with the SEC. This action is fundamental to the Company’s efforts to demonstrate heightened transparency to its investors and bring the Company greater visibility and credibility before a substantially larger group of qualified investors. In addition, once the Form 10 filing is completed, the Company plans to apply to OTC Markets for an uplisting to the OTCQB® Venture Market.
