TechXpress Launches New Interactive E-Commerce Website for Manitoba Harvest Hemp Foods & Oils

Dec. 24, 2010 - PRLog -- San Luis Obispo, CA – TechXpress, a leading eCommerce solutions provider, unveiled a new interactive website this month for its Canadian based client, Manitoba Harvest, the largest integrated hemp food manufacturer in the world.

Among the new site’s improvements are an updated design with enhanced educational content, a more intuitive navigation, and an interactive shopping experience.

“ManitobaHarvest.com needs to be both an e-commerce site and educational tool. For us, it was crucial to partner with a web developer that understood how to handle the dual functions,” said Kelly Saunderson, Marketing Manager for Manitoba Harvest. “TechXpress appreciated our needs and offered cutting-edge solutions. We were so pleased with the site development we have already partnered with them for ongoing Internet marketing services.”

The new site (http://www.manitobaharvest.com) is more interactive and harnesses the power of social media. Customers can rate and provide commentary on products, watch videos, participate in contests, and share content with friends on integrated sites like Facebook.

“Many people are just learning about hemp foods and hemp nutrition. Having an interactive, informative and engaging website is crucial to educate and introduce people to hemp foods.” said Saunderson.

Hemp foods continue to break into the mainstream, with hemp grocery sales growing steadily as more people discover the health benefits of the plant. With the richest vegetable source of Omega-3 and Omega-6, hemp has protein content comparable to soy beans and higher than that found in nuts, other seeds, meats, dairy products, fish and poultry. Hemp is also rich in fiber and minerals.

“It has been a pleasure working with Manitoba Harvest in the development of their new, cutting-edge website,” said Louis Camassa, Vice President of Web Services for TechXpress. “We pulled out all the stops to develop a site that would streamline the customer shopping experience and continue to position Manitoba Harvest as the industry leader in hemp foods.”
