Some people are true trailblazers, making bold moves that impact many. One such leader just announced a major new initiative, driving his company’s shares higher on the news.

This morning, One World Products, Inc. (OTCQB: OWPC), led by Chairman and CEO Isiah Thomas, announced that it has acquired Eco Bio Plastics Midland, Inc., a U.S.-based manufacturer of plant-based, biodegradable plastics, for approximately $600,000 in cash. The acquisition, which brings proprietary formulations and scalable manufacturing capacity, will help OWP expand into high-growth markets such as food packaging, automotive, and consumer goods, marking a key step in its transition to vertically integrated sustainable materials. The company also plans to change its name to Isiah Enterprises, Inc. to reflect its broader mission of advancing circular economies, ESG-focused manufacturing, and regenerative community development.

The acquisition of Eco Bio Plastics offers One World Products (OWP) key strategic advantages, including vertical integration and cost control through in-house biopolymer production for automotive, food, and packaging sectors. Eco Bio’s compostable formulations enable immediate innovation in food packaging, meeting growing regulatory and consumer demand. In the automotive industry, OWP will leverage partnerships with companies like Stellantis to introduce sustainable biocompounds for lightweight, recyclable parts. Additionally, Midland, Michigan, will become OWP’s U.S. manufacturing and R&D hub, advancing Isiah Thomas’s vision of revitalizing post-industrial communities with clean technology and ESG-focused growth.

“We’re not just in the business of making money,” adds Thomas. “We’re in the business of making history.” The acquisition reflects Thomas’s strong track record of transforming undervalued assets and building enduring brands - from revitalizing the Detroit Pistons' 'Bad Boys' era and American Speedy Printing to co-founding the Toronto Raptors and launching Cheurlin Champagne.

Shareholders are agreeing with this latest corporate move by the entrepreneurial legend, sending shares of OWPC up 9.67% to $0.01985 in late-morning trading.
