Rachele Invernizzi joins EIHA board

Italian entrepreneur Rachele Invernizzi, president at SouthHemp, has joined the board of directors of the European Industrial Hemp Association (EIHA).

She is also a founder of Federcanapa, the Italian hemp federation, organizer of the Milan-based Salone Internazionale Della Canapa annual exposition.

Other current EIHA board members are Mark Reinders, EIHA President, HempFlax B.V., Holland; Bernd Frank, EIHA Treasurer, BaFa Neu GmbH, Germany; Daniela Sfrija, Canah Int. s.r.o, Romania; Boris Banas, CBDepot, Czech Republic; Daniel Kruse, Hempro Int., GmbH, Germany; and Sylvestre Bertucceli, InterChanvre (France).
