Organic Markets Direct via brands AGN & OMD, are Australia’s largest exporter of Chia Seeds (Australian Grown) into Vietnam, Singapore and Hong Kong. MCL now has direct access to these markets, through this new deal with the Edwards brothers.
The Board of Queensland Bauxite Limited has announced that it has entered into a Heads of Agreement with Sebastian and Samuel Edwards (HHC) to acquire their Health Food Brands.
Sebastian & Samuel Edwards are the owners and directors of Hemp Hulling Co (HHC), of which QBL’s subsidiary Medical Cannabis Limited (MCL) owns 55%. The expertise and work ethic of the Edwards family on behalf of the development of MCL has been impressive.
Seb & Sam Edwards are the founders of Organic Markets Direct (OMD), a major wholesaler of health foods that include Hemp Seed products, Chia Seeds, Green Leaf Stevia, Cacao, Buckwheat, Brown Rice and other well known health foods.
The Edwards have established Australian & International brands EM Super Foods, Australian Grown Naturals (AGN), Black Bag and OMD. These brands are 100% owned by T12 Holdings Pty Ltd, and should assist significantly in the distribution and production of QBL/MCL’s suite of nutritional hemp products.

QBL, in discussion with the Edwards, felt the time was right that these brands are merged with QBL/MCL, and create one large Health & Wellness Food group underpinned by QBL/MCL’s expanding hemp business. This is a true whole-food collective of street market knowledge, corporate knowledge and experience. This newly combined group has a common passion for Australian grown and selective high-end imported health foods.
The terms of the acquisition is an issue of 21,621,622 QBL shares in return for 100% of the shares in T12 Holdings Pty Ltd. This acquisition is subject to shareholder approval to be sought at the upcoming shareholder meeting.
QBL prides itself on connecting dots, finding the right people to enhance its core values, who can produce profits and are motivated to continually do it better. With this new acquisition/merger QBL/MCL have connected with an entire hard-working family, which includes Peter Edwards from VitaHemp. A solid foundation has now been firmly established for QBL/MCL, creating an infrastructure which is now primed for expansion into the burgeoning multi-billion dollar Health Foods market in Australia.
