What’s the story behind the name of your company?

ROI has a double meaning. First it is a French word that means “king” or “ruler.” [It also stands for] return on investment. We serve the highest ideals by the virtue of our deeds, which then results on the highest rate of return on investment.

When did you decide to get into the cannabis industry?

After 20 years of athletics and racing, coupled with seven operations to make repairs, my body was broken down. In 1997, I sustained a major spine injury and my physician, Dr. Bridgette Bowler, insisted that I quit taking opiate pain medication as they were “filled with darkness” and would never lead to natural healing via the Gaia principle she practiced.

To help with the pain, I started looking for alternatives, [which always ended up being inconsistent] and in fact unhealthy for me. I obtained my card in 2010 and started practicing, planning and testing cannabis for myself and for returning Iraq War veterans, free of charge. In 2016, after 83 documented, timestamped and photographed test studies, we started selling our Zero Add Demeter-USA Certified, total living organic Medicinal Blend soil to the public, so that others could taste and feel the difference.

Along the way, I was also influenced with my mom’s 20-year battle with cervical cancer. She had 12 operations and was a junkie, requiring two doctors’ signatures for her “junk” at the time of her death in 1997. If what Dr. Simpson said was true, I would have to find a way to organically extract this medicine without damaging the living enzymes, [. . .] so that others could keep their mom around long enough to meet their grandchildren. Without living enzyme delivery service, the material could never truly penetrate our cellular tissue and become completely absorbed by the entire human system. In 2015, after 17 tests, I found the only Demeter-USA certified way at the time of submission.

How has the cannabis industry changed since you have been in the business? Where would you like to see it go?

It has gone from a “hippy movement” to a “drug lord big agriculture dope show,” where artificial systems and manmade chemistry are driven by greed, by people who could care less about human health and vitality.

What are the some of the challenges you see in cannabis cultivation?

Ridding the American consciousness of materialism and profit-driven ideologies and hydroponics, which do nothing to address the health and vitality of patients, while consuming exorbitant amounts of fossil fuels.

What makes your product superior to your competitors?

The practice and improved upon standards that we employ are the highest self-sustainable organic standards in the world, and in my humble opinion, are the only way to arrive at true living organic medicine.

What is the most important thing your business hopes to accomplish while in the cannabis community?  

We want to continue creating true value through the pursuit of health and vitality.
