It’s been a busy few months for a Kelowna hemp company, and that included a name change.

Inca Renewable Technologies, whose headquarters are on St. Paul Street, used to be known as Inca Hemp Co. The name change “reflects the opportunity to not just supply low cost CBD from Colombia and South America, but to develop and commercialize a comprehensive portfolio of high-value and environmentally sustainable, hemp-derived products for a wide range of industrial applications,” according to the company’s quarterly report.

Inca has also added David Saltman as chairman of the board and divided its company into six verticals: bio-plastics and composites; textiles; pulp and paper; health (CBD); building materials; and food and animal feed.

Inca purchased Futura Farms in Peru and is in the process of buying 49% of Real Hemp Straw in an effort to develop low-cost hemp supply options.
