Agrios Global Holdings Ltd. Appoints Ray Lok as Technical Advisor

VANCOUVER, Nov. 15, 2018 /CNW/ - Agrios Global Holdings Ltd. AGRO ("Agrios" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Ray Lok to the advisory board of the Company.

Ray is a USC graduate with a degree in International Relations and Global Management.  Since 2013, Ray has been developing and practicing innovative and sustainable cultivation technologies at Evergreens Republic a USDA certified organic commercial aquaponics farm which produces herbs and produce that are highly sought after in the Hong Kong market for their flavor and nutritious value.

Due to the significant lack of arable land in Hong Kong, Evergreens Republic has received attention from major real estate developers and government officials who are seeking more sustainable agricultural practices for use on new agricultural projects/developments.

Without the need for quality soil, aquaponic and aeroponic cultivation can take place on marginal land. Neither cultivation method requires heavy machinery or petrochemicals and thus risk no chemical run-off or pollution of underground waterways.

Chris Kennedy President & CEO of Agrios stated, "It is a pleasure to welcome Ray to our advisory board. Ray's vast experience in aquaponic cultivation provides our agronomy team and technical engineers an excellent collaboration partner as they continue to improve production efficiencies within our aeroponic cultivation system in a sustainable and environmentally friendly way."
