PORTLAND, Ore. August 15, 2018 – PRESS RELEASE – Inc. magazine has revealed that Cura Cannabis Solutions is No. 45 on its 37th annual Inc. 5000, with a growth of 5,960.9 percent over three years. Cura is the first and only cannabis company to ever make it into the top 50 on this prestigious list. This achievement would not be possible without the support of Cura’s customers and staff and their belief in a world where everything is possible.

Known for its best-selling brands Select Oil and Select CBD, Cura is proud to employ more than 350 people across four states, with additional national and international growth on the horizon. Born in Portland, Ore., in 2015, Cura continues to grow in Oregon, California, Nevada, Arizona and into international markets via its upcoming Canadian headquarters. Cura is on a mission to be the leading provider of cannabis oil to the global market, and at $25M, its Q2 2018 revenue is the highest recorded legal cannabis revenue quarter according to publicly available data. Amongst the ever-changing regulatory atmosphere in the cannabis space, Cura attributes its record-breaking growth to its incredible team, and customers that have believed in the products and mission from the start.
