Lexaria Announces Price Cuts on ViPova^TM Tea Products.

Kelowna, BC / November 15, 2016 / Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (OTCQB:LXRP) (CSE:LXX) (the “Company” or “Lexaria”) announces dramatic price cuts on all ViPova^TM tea products, just in time for the busiest shopping season of the year.

Effective immediately, all ViPova^TM black and herbal teas have new lower retail prices of just US$15.99 for a box of 16 teabags, always fortified with full spectrum hemp oil that utilizes Lexaria’s patented absorption and taste enhancing technology. Previously, 16 teabags were priced at US$48, making this a price reduction of 73%.

Lexaria is committed to always placing its customers first, and to share efficiencies. These price cuts are a reflection of two trends: First, wholesale bulk prices of commercial quantities of full spectrum hemp oil have declined significantly in the past year, and Lexaria is passing those savings on to its customers. Second, Lexaria’s manufacturing and formulation efficiencies have advanced, resulting in lower costs of production.

“ViPova products lead the industry in quality and we now lead the industry in pricing,” said Chris Bunka, CEO. “We believe our new retail pricing of just $1 per serving leads the entire cannabinoid industry and we believe this aggressive new pricing will open up retail distribution opportunities that were previously impossible to penetrate.”

All ViPova teas are now packaged in attractive boxes suitable for retail and counter presentation, with inner plastic bags to preserve freshness.

Shoppers can buy online at www.vipova.com where the new prices have been implemented. The price reductions apply to all teas regardless of flavor or variety. Lexaria encourages shoppers to visit early and complete some of their 2016 holiday season shopping. Holiday season retail sales comprise up to 30% of the entire year’s revenue for many retailers.

More consumers are expected to complete their holiday shopping online in 2016 than those who visit discount stores, electronics stores, grocery stores, or even clothing stores. 87% of shoppers are willing to spend an extra $25 this holiday season on gifts for themselves or others, if tempted by an unusually attractive sale or promotion, according to the National Retail Federation. Online retail sales this holiday season in the US are expected to reach $117 billion.
