Today’s podcast overview/transcript:
Good
afternoon and welcome to another Investorideas.com “potcast”, looking at
cannabis news, stocks to watch as well as insights from thought leaders and
experts.
Today
we are looking at announcements from Choom Holdings Inc. (CSE:
CHOO) (OTCQB:
CHOOF), Canopy Growth Corporation (TSX:
WEED), (NYSE:
CGC), The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings
Ltd. (TSX:
TGOD) (OTC:
TGODF), Newstrike Brands Ltd. (TSX-V:HIP) and
Liberty Health Sciences Inc. (CSE:
LHS) (OTCQX:
LHSIF).
Choom Holdings Inc., an emerging adult
and medical use cannabis company that has secured one of the largest national
retail networks in Canada, announced,
following its strategy to become a multi-state operator, that it intends to
expand into Florida. Choom, through its
wholly owned US subsidiary, Choom Holdings USA Inc., has signed a letter of
intent to purchase a 95% equity interest in a Florida-based
vertically-integrated cannabis applicant.
The FL Company is progressing on its
Master License application to operate up to 25 retail locations with potential
for more as the number of registered patients increase, as well as, a
micro-processing and cultivation facility for medical purposes. Upon completing
the transaction, Choom will use its medical brand, Clarity Medical Centres, to
create a network of branded Medical Marijuana Treatment Centers. Florida's medical marijuana program has over
190,000 qualified patients, up from approximately 168,000 at the start of 2019,
making it the largest medical marijuana market in the United States. Florida has recently allowed the use of
smokable medical marijuana products, potentially opening the program to a
considerably larger audience.
"We are very excited to be expanding
into Florida and to bring Choom's medical brand into that market. Florida's medical marijuana program is a very
attractive opportunity for us seeing that it allows for vertically-integrated
operations and it has been a market we've had our sights on for a while
now." states Chris Bogart, President & CEO of Choom. "This
investment aligns with our strategy of becoming a multi-state operator in the
US and helps us to bolster our growth targets. Florida is home to over 21 million
residents and has shown impressive year over year growth on the number of
registered patients with a large portion of the market being relatively
uncaptured."
Canopy Growth Corporation announced that
it has received a cultivation license from Health Canada for its facility in
Fredericton, New Brunswick. With this licensing, Canopy Growth predicts the
facility will initially produce more than 5,000kg of cannabis annually, with
first harvests expected to become available to the market within six months.
Developed in collaboration with Canopy
Rivers Inc. (TSXV:
RIV) and operating under Canopy Growth's
flagship Tweed brand, the facility will support the Company's global and local
operations with high quality, large-scale cannabis production capabilities that
will serve the needs of recreational and medical customers. To meet that
demand, Canopy Growth expects to create more than 130 jobs at the Fredericton
plant.
"New Brunswick has emerged as a
leader in the legal cannabis sector and the province is an excellent place to
do business," said Bruce Linton, co-CEO and Chairman, Canopy Growth.
"We will leverage our existing operational expertise to ensure we support
the needs of our customers while making a meaningful contribution to the local
economy primarily through new job creation."
The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. announced that
effective today sales of certified-organic cannabis have started with national
distribution to medical patients. The Growers' Circle is a select group of
patients across Canada now receiving TGOD's first certified-organic flower. The
Growers' Circle launch is a limited production rollout of the Company's premium
product, allowing TGOD to perfect its distribution ahead of its production
ramp-up and scaled rollout this year.
"The launch of the Growers' Circle
is another significant moment in TGOD's commercial story," said Brian Athaide,
Director and Chief Executive Officer. "Our certified-organic cannabis is a
premium experience for patients. We are proud of our product and excited to be
sharing it with Growers' Circle members."
TGOD cannabis is grown in living soil
without synthetic fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides. TGOD cannabis is
certified-organic by ECOCERT and Pro-cert, pre-eminent global certification
bodies. Hill & Knowlton consumer research confirmed that 60% of medical
cannabis patients prefer certified-organic product. TGOD flower is packaged in
recyclable glass jars and speaks to the Company's product quality,
sustainability and regenerative philosophy.
TGOD is now shipping its Unite Organic
strain to over 200 medical patients across Canada. "It's been a rewarding
experience to get to this point, talking with consumers and understanding their
needs, through to growing and cultivating organic product," said Csaba
Reider, President of TGOD. "Growing organic requires patience, and we know
that our cannabis was worth the wait."
TGOD Growers' Circle members will receive
a state-of-the-art online and app experience that provides timely information
on individual medical needs. "We have spent months talking with consumers
about their preferred cannabis experience," said Andrew Pollock, Vice
President of Marketing for TGOD. "We believe that through our website, the
experience – from signup to follow-up, to ongoing care - will be the finest in
the industry."
Newstrike Brands Ltd. announced that
Up Cannabis Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary, has entered into an agreement
with Cannabis NB as a licensed producer to supply cannabis.
"We are very excited to announce
this partnership with Cannabis NB," said Jay Wilgar, CEO of both Newstrike
and Up Cannabis. "Being among the select group of licensed producers that
will supply cannabis to the New Brunswick marketplace is a privilege, and we
look forward to helping Cannabis NB achieve its goals of providing safe,
reliable product to adult-use consumers."
With this announcement, Up Cannabis
becomes one of only eight Licensed Producers that currently supplies Cannabis
NB.
Liberty Health Sciences Inc., a provider
of high quality cannabis,
announced today that it has received Florida Department
of Health (DOH) approval to sell whole flower smokable products to patients in
Florida, making it one of the first companies in the state to provide smokable
medical marijuana in all of its dispensaries. The Company is awaiting DOH
approval to provide pre-rolls to patients.
Patients who receive medical marijuana
from their doctor will now be able to smoke the substance legally under a bill
(SB 182) signed into law last week by Governor Ron DeSantis revoking a ban on
smoking medical marijuana. More than 70 percent of voters approved a ballot
measure in 2016 legalizing marijuana for medical use, but the Florida
Legislature passed a bill a year later that banned it in smokable forms. The
new law provides patients the ability to access medicine in the form their
doctor determines best for them, whether it's smoking medical marijuana or
utilizing other delivery systems.
"This is truly a historic moment not
only for Liberty Health Sciences but for the State of Florida," said
Victor E. Mancebo, interim Chief Executive Officer of Liberty. "Receiving
DOH approval – the same week that Governor DeSantis signed SB 182 allowing
patients registered under the Department of Health to smoke medical marijuana –
is monumental for Liberty and its ability to offer patients an additional
medicinal option. Patients in Florida have been eager for this bill to pass as
there is a fundamental need for this medicine in all of its forms."
