The former Olympic swimmer opened a marijuana products store for athletes called Cannabity Healthcare (located in Sant Cugat del Vallès, Barcelona) in early December. The company sells balms, oils, infusions, herbal teas, cosmetics and other CBD-derived therapeutic products for athletes suffering from chronic pain, back pain, insomnia, anxiety, skin conditions and stress.
This new business venture was launched after he spent months taking business training in classrooms at EADA Business School, the top management and administration school, according to La Vanguardia.
For this project, Mengual partnered with Cannabity, a company with more than four years of experience in the sector and 4,000 customers in its online channel.
Although this business specializes in treating athletes, you don’t have to be defiant to go and consume the products. “For example, I take a few drops at night to help me relax. I tend to clench my jaw and that helps me relax”, points out the athlete to La Vanguardia.
Mengual has other businesses, such as his Japanese restaurant, “Sugoi”, in Sant Cugat del Vallès, Barcelona, and Así Está el Patio S.L. , which he founded with his representative Patricia Diaz Pogue, dedicated to youth management and marketing. Promising retired athletes and big names in the sport.
