Gatekeeper will deploy an arsenal of digital marketing tools to acquire new customers for Whole Hemp Health with the primary goal of accelerating growth through online and direct-to-consumer channels

AgraFlora Organics International Inc () (OCTMKTS:AGFAF), the international cannabis group, has hired marketing firm Gatekeeper Growth to drive sales of its Whole Hemp Health products on the likes of retail giant Amazon () and other platforms, sending shares surging.

The products are a proprietary line of hemp-derived cosmetic products developed and made by Canutra Naturals - a wholly-owned subsidiary of AgraFlora. 

"We are pleased that we conform with Gatekeeper’s strict product criteria and to be selected as a partner to their proven sales model, which de-risks our online advertising strategy," said Canutra's CEO Tony Harris.

"Gatekeeper only selects a few clients per year to partner with, and it is a testament to the quality and market potential of our products that they have chosen to work with Whole Hemp Health."

Brian MacKay, managing partner of Gatekeeper Growth, added: "Our focus is on partnering with quality brands ready for explosive online sales growth. 

"We are excited to be working with a leading brand such as Whole Hemp Health in the emerging natural luxury wellness vertical. Our team speaks the language of conversion and sales, not clicks and impressions, and we look forward to a long, growth-oriented partnership with the forward-thinking Canutra Naturals team."
