Healthier Choices Management Corp (OTC Pink: HCMC) is an intellectual property holding and product commercialization company focused on patented vaporizer technology and pharmaceutical products. Revenue is pursued through royalty and licensing agreements for its patent portfolio, managed by its wholly owned subsidiary HCMC Intellectual Property Holdings, LLC, alongside direct product sales of the Q-Cup and Imitine.
