POTOMAC, MD / ACCESS Newswire / February 11, 2025 / IGC Pharma, Inc. (NYSE American:IGC) ("IGC Pharma" or the "Company") today announced the launch of Holiby™, a wellness brand offering scientifically formulated products for immune defense and sustained energy. This strategic expansion into the rapidly growing $75 billion wellness industry establishes a new revenue stream while IGC Pharma continues advancing its pharmaceutical pipeline focused on treatments for Alzheimer's disease and metabolic disorders.

IGC will leverage its existing capacity at its state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in Washington State - originally established for pharmaceutical production - to manufacture and distribute Holiby's over-the-counter ("OTC") wellness products and formulations. This duel strategy creates near-term revenue growth and maximizes operational efficiencies while the company advances IGC-AD1 through its Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical trials and further develops promising metabolic drug candidates.

"The launch of Holiby™ represents an exciting strategic expansion into the multi-billion-dollar wellness industry," said Ram Mukunda, CEO of IGC Pharma."This is an opportunity to generate near-term revenue, drive brand growth, and establish IGC in both wellness and biotech innovation while also better leveraging our manufacturing facility."

Holiby's first product line includes Immunity Gummies and Energy Gummies, designed to meet growing consumer demand for natural, effective health solutions:

Holiby™ Immunity Gummies: Formulated with Elderberry, Echinacea, and Reishi Mushrooms to support immune resilience and protect against oxidative stress.
Holiby™ Energy Gummies: Featuring Ashwagandha, Ginseng, and Maca Root, scientifically recognized for their ability to enhance stamina, reduce stress, and support cognitive performance.

Holiby™ products will be available for direct-to-consumer online sales and white-label partnerships with wellness brands, further expanding revenue opportunities.

IGC Pharma will drive Holiby's growth through digital marketing, e-commerce, and social media influencers, targeting health-conscious consumers aged 25 to 55+, with a primary focus on women (60-70%).
