(OTC Pink: OLVI), a leading international natural cosmetics and wearable beauty and health technology innovator, today announced that a Regulation A+ Tier 2 offering to raise up to $15 million for its wholly owned Olive Tree People Inc. subsidiary has been qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). For the offering, Olive Tree People Inc. common stock has been priced at $1.25 per share, and Oliveda International, Inc. has received an additional 63 million common shares of Olive Tree People Inc. stock, increasing its common stock position in Olive Tree People Inc. to 64 million shares, a total value of $80 million.
