Today’s podcast overview/transcript:
Good
afternoon and welcome to another episode of Investorideas.com
"Potcast" featuring cannabis news, stocks to watch as well as
insights from thought leaders and experts.
In
today’s podcast we look at a few of this week’s announcements.
VIVO Cannabis Inc. (TSXV:
VIVO) (OTCQX:
VVCIF) announced that
its common shares will begin trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange effective as
of market open on January 24, 2020, under the current trading symbol of VIVO. In
conjunction with the TSX listing, the Common Shares will be voluntarily
delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange.
"The
strength of the Toronto Stock Exchange is world-class, and this event
represents a tremendous milestone for VIVO," said Barry Fishman, Chief
Executive Officer. "We believe the TSX listing will increase VIVO's
exposure to a wider audience, increase trading liquidity and expand access to a
large new pool of institutional investors."
VIVO
has also successfully shipped cannabis 2.0 products from its Canna Farms
facility to the provinces of Manitoba and Saskatchewan, with purchase orders to
Alberta, Ontario and British Columbia expected to ship imminently.
VIVO
also expects to make initial shipments of its Fireside™ chocolate products,
which were created with the founders of award-winning Belgian chocolatier,
ChocolaTas, to the provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan,
Manitoba and Ontario, and its Fireside™ concentrates and vape products from its
Vanluven facility to the provinces of Alberta, Ontario, British Columbia and
New Brunswick, before the end of Q1 2020.
"We
expect that by the end of Q1 2020, our cannabis 2.0 products will be available
for sale in seven provinces, which is a significant achievement considering the
recent opening of the market," Mr. Fishman continued. "We are proud
of our suite of 2.0 products and look forward to our customers having the
opportunity to experience them for themselves."
PharmaCielo Ltd. (TSXV:
PCLO) (OTCQX:
PCLOF), the Canadian parent of Colombia's premier cultivator
and producer of medicinal-grade cannabis extracts, PharmaCielo Colombia
Holdings S.A.S., announced that it
has signed a three-year pan-European distribution agreement, in which the
Company's high-grade CBD isolate and broad-spectrum CBD oil will be sold to
wholesalers and medicinal CPG product manufacturers through GMP certified lab
owner, CBD Export Global.
The
Agreement with the Quebec, Canada-based CBD Export Global expands PharmaCielo's
distribution network in Europe with shipments into the EU to commence in 2020
with increased volumes during the duration of the agreement as B2B markets are
expanded. A minimum target volume of
2,000 kg has been agreed to in the first year of the three-year performance-based
Agreement, allowing for confirmation of individual market regulatory approvals
and enabling increased sales volume expansion in subsequent years.
"The
agreement with CBD Export Global is part of PharmaCielo's second-phase growth
strategy complementing the first phase in which we established one of the
largest cultivation and extraction operations in Colombia and initiated global
sales, and now in the second phase expanding the distribution network as
production volumes increase on a daily basis to take our high-quality medicinal
CBD extracts to global markets," says David Attard, Chief Executive
Officer of PharmaCielo. "In 2019 we saw global demand for quality
medicinal extracts increasing on an ongoing basis. In 2020 we are further expanding
our distribution and sales channels. The collaboration with CBD Export Global
will play a key role in our continued growth."
The
distribution agreement with CBD Export Global is entered into with the intent
of continued market expansion beyond 2019's experience successfully completing
commercial shipments of CBD isolate from PharmaCielo to the U.S. and
Switzerland.

the strength of our leadership team, the continued execution of our strategic
plan and the robust opportunities we have for growth in the global cannabis
industry, we were able to secure this additional capital from a single
investor, a significant endorsement of Aphria in these market conditions,"
