Red White & Bloom Secures USD $20 Million Dollar Supply Agreement with Critical 39 for Fiscal 2020

Agreement allows for RWB’s Illinois facility to provide thousands of pounds of premium and proprietary smokable hemp flower from 2020 harvests

TORONTO, Aug. 19, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Red White & Bloom Brands Inc. (CSE: RWB) (OTC: RWBYF) (“RWB” or “Red White & Bloom”) is pleased to announce that they have entered into a Growing and Sales Agreement (the “Offtake”) with 39 Industries, LLC operating as Critical 39 (“Critical 39”), a Spokane, Washington based company focused on delivering premium products throughout the US.

Anne Hyde, President of Mid-American Growers, a wholly owned subsidiary of RWB, stated: “This Agreement with Critical 39 reflects our ability to attract partners that recognize our ability to provide indoor grown, ultra-premium products all year round. The combination of the robust genetics provided by Critical 39 and the skilled team at our Illinois facility will allow us to deliver finished goods that will command a premium price point and deliver on consumer demand for top shelf products.”

Under terms of the agreement, Critical 39 has already delivered 100,000 seeds to the 3.6 million square foot facility in Granville, Illinois where they are being cultivated in accordance with Good Agricultural Practices (“GAP”) and will be processed into finished whole hemp flower. The initial crop is expected to utilize a fraction of the facility’s capacity. The offtake has provisions for the parties to extend the relationship into the year 2022.

Lawrence Sowell, CEO of Critical 39, stated, “We are proud to partner with RWB to fulfill whole flower demand from our CPG distributors and end user consumers. This partnership allows us to further monetize on our premium genetics with a partner that has the greatest scale within the indoor premium hemp and CBD market. We anticipate this is just the first step of an expanding relationship.”
