LAFAYETTE, Colo., Feb. 14, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Front Range Biosciences® ("FRB"), which provides hemp, coffee, and high-value crop producers with high-performing Clean Stock® plants and seed by combining the best practices in agriculture with modern science, is pleased to provide the following summary of activities and developments for the company.

"In 2018, the passing of the Farm Bill opened up the marketplace for farmers across the country to diversify their farms with industrial hemp production and capitalize on the rapidly growing hemp industry," said Dr. Jonathan Vaught, Co-Founder and CEO of Front Range Biosciences. "This fuels job growth domestically and keeps the U.S. competitive in the global market while demonstrating the utility of the cannabis plant, or hemp, as a profitable crop for nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, nutritional, and industrial applications. FRB experienced tremendous growth in 2018, and we plan to capitalize on that momentum in 2019, which is poised to be our most demanding year yet. Our team has the foundation in place to operate at a capacity that will benefit our customers and position us for continued success in the years to come."

Staffing Updates:
FRB has doubled its workforce to more than 40 employees since 2018, filling crucial management and lab operation positions essential to the company's continued growth. These roles include breeders, growers, greenhouse technicians, HR & accounting professionals, and sales representatives.

Key New Hires Include:

Facility Expansions:
In 2018, the company acquired nearly two acres in new greenhouse space across Colorado, California, and Wisconsin. The team remains focused on expanding capacity at all locations to meet the increasing hemp demand.
