  • Allied Corp. is the first company to successfully produce and ship commercial cannabis flower from Colombia to an international market (June 2022).
  • Allied Corp. has now shipped four shipments from Colombia to international markets (272kgs in June, 200kgs in July, 1728kgs in early August and now 3425kgs).
  • Allied Corp. has now shipped the world’s largest known quantity of commercial cannabis ever recorded.
  • Allied is preparing for its THC harvest in September 2022 to enter into this supply chain.

KELOWNA, British Columbia, Aug. 31, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Allied Corp. (“Allied” or the “Company”) (OTCQB: ALID) is pleased to announce that is has shipped 3425kgs of medicinal cannabis from Colombia to an international market as an historic milestone. This record-breaking shipment represents the world’s largest known cannabis export to date.

In June 2022, Allied was the first company to export dried cannabis from Colombia. Allied’s shipments of 272kgs, 200kgs, 1728kgs and 3425kgs have shown an established supply chain at commercial scale.

Allied’s clients and supply channel partners span five (5) world continents that include Australia, Europe, Asia, South America, and North America. Allied’s relationships with international partners are based on sustainable, long-term agreements that were designed with the Allied Inside™ supply chain in mind.

On April 01, 2022 Colombia enacted the new legislation allowing for the legal export of dried cannabis produced in Colombia and immediately Allied submitted several applications for export. After many levels of regulatory inspections, analyses, discussions and questions, Allied’s first export of 272kgs shipped in June 2022, a second shipment of 200kgs was shipped in July 2022, 1728kgs in early August and now the world’s largest shipment of 3425kgs also in August 2022.

“The logistics management that it took to get over 7500 pounds of cannabis approved for export and onto a plane was no easy feat. Since June 2022, Allied has already shipped over one third of the volume that the entire country of Canada exported in 2020 (source). About two weeks have passed since our last press release saying that we would be sending 1500kgs every week. This 3425kgs shows that we are achieving the company’s goals and aspirations. We are continuing to scale as each month passes particularly as we enter our high THC harvest within the month of September,” said Calum Hughes, CEO and Chairman of the Board.

Allied’s multiple strains in the production pipeline include over 15,000 THC plants created for multiple batches to fulfill our 2022 quota. The Allied THC flower harvest will be available for sale in or around September 2022.

Akanda pivots to German market as cannabis reform gains traction https://mjshareholders.com/akanda-pivots-to-german-market-as-cannabis-reform-gains-traction/ Wed, 31 Aug 2022 15:53:48 +0000 https://www.cannabisfn.com/?p=2960370

Akanda Corp. CEO Tej Virk is pivoting the micro-capitalization cannabis company toward the European Union amid rising interest in the sector as German Chancellor Olaf Scholz continues to push for marijuana legalization.

Virk sees Germany offering regulatory tailwinds as the largest economy in Europe gets ready to set up its adult use cannabis industry in the coming months. Other EU countries may soon follow, he said.

“We’re going to see other countries in the EU watch this carefully,” Virk told MarketWatch. “It’s an exciting time. We’re gearing up our business.”

To boost its business in the EU, Akanda AKAN, 3.53% in May closed its roughly $20 million acquisition of Holigen, owner of Portugal-based RPK Biopharma, which runs a 20,000 square foot indoor grow facility located near Lisbon. It also owns 180-plus acres of outdoor growing space about two hours south.

In early August, Akanda inked a multi-year supply agreement with European medical cannabis importer and distributor Cansativa GmbH to initially deliver a minimum of one metric ton over the first 12 months to the German medical market from its Holigen operation in Portugal.

The deal ranks as one of the largest supply agreements in the European medical cannabis industry, as well as the most substantial commercial development for Akanda since the company was formed in 2021, Virk said.

Akana went public in March in the U.S. on the Nasdaq in a deal that raised $16 million with Bousted Securities LLC.

The German adult use market may tip the scales at about 300 tons of cannabis as early as 2024, according to comments in the press by the German health minister. But the country currently lacks adequate domestic supply to meet demand. It’s likely Germany will accept cannabis produced inside the European Union for its adult use market, but whether imports will be allowed from outside the EU remains unknown, Virk said.

To boost its presence in Portugal and for other efforts, Akanda has hired two new cannabis industry veterans to start work on Sept. 1. Tom Flow will be chief operating officer of Akanda and managing director of Holigen.

Flow was co-founder of MedReleaf Corp. which was sold to Aurora Cannabis Inc. ACB, 3.95% ACB, 4.02% in 2018; he also worked in senior roles at The Flowr Corp. FLWPF, +8.52%.

Steven George, a veteran of Tilray Brands Inc. TLRY, 0.32% TLRY, -0.20% in Spain and Portugal, is joining Akanda as commercial director.

Akanda is currently involved in a legal fight with its former executive chairman Louisa Mojela over the liquidation of its Bophelo Bio Science & Wellness (Pty) Ltd. cannabis grow operation in Lesotho, a country located within South Africa. Virk said in a statement on July 27 that without Bophelo, the company remains on an “accelerated path” to profitability, but it also remains committed to the business.

Citing industry data, Cantor Fitzgerald analyst Pablo Zuanic said earlier this month that Aurora, Cannamedical Pharma GmbH, Canopy Growth Corp. CGC, 0.48% WEED, 0.62%, Four20 Pharma GmbH and Tilray comprised more than 70% of the cannabis flower market in Germany over the last 12 months. Berlin-based Demecan also ranks as a domestic production licensee in Germany.

Meanwhile, Curaleaf Holdings Inc. CURLF, -4.05% CURA, -4.36% announced plans on Aug. 9 to acquire a 55% stake in Four20Pharma for €19.7 million ($19.7 million), to boost its presence in Germany.

With the German adult-use market estimated at $12.6 billion, Cantor Fitzgerald’s Zuanic said Aurora Cannabis and Tilray rank as the best-positioned companies to benefit from the potential market, among the stocks that he covers.

PharmaCielo Completes Initial Tranche of Non-Brokered Private Placement of Debenture Units https://mjshareholders.com/pharmacielo-completes-initial-tranche-of-non-brokered-private-placement-of-debenture-units/ Fri, 31 Dec 2021 17:04:08 +0000 https://www.cannabisfn.com/?p=2936435

December 31st, 2021


TORONTO and RIONEGRO, Colombia, Dec. 31, 2021 /CNW/ – PharmaCielo Ltd. (“PharmaCielo” or the “Company”) (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. (“Holdings”), is pleased to announce that it has closed the first tranches of its previously announced non-brokered private placement (the “Offering”), consisting of an aggregate of 5,000 debenture units (each a “Unit”). The Units were issued at a price of $1,000 per Unit for aggregate proceeds of $5,000,000.

The Company closed an initial tranche of the Offering consisting of $4,000,000 principal amount of Units on December 24, 2021 and a further tranche consisting of $1,000,000 principal amount of Units on December 31, 2021. Insiders participated in this initial tranche of financing. The Company expects to close the issuance of up to an additional $10,000,000 principal amount of Units in one or more tranches on or about January 14, 2022.

The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Offering for operations, working capital and the build-out of its international psychoactive dry flower sales program.

Debenture Units

Each Unit consists of $1,000 principal amount of 11% secured debentures (“Debentures”) and 250 non-transferable common share purchase warrants (“Debenture Warrants”). Each Debenture Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one common share of the Company (each a “Common Share”) at an exercise price of $1.44 per Common Share until December 24, 2024 (subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments). The Debentures bear interest at a rate of 11% per annum, mature on December 24, 2024, and are guaranteed by Holdings. Holdings’ guarantee of the Debentures will be secured by mortgages on the real property of the Company and its subsidiaries. Interest payable on the Debentures may be paid by the Company in Common Shares at the Company’s option, subject to approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Company has the right to redeem any or all of the Debentures from time to time at the following percentages of face value: (i) 105% at any time prior to December 24, 2022; (ii) 103% at any time on or after December 24, 2022 and prior to December 24, 2023; and (iii) 101% on or after December 24, 2023, in each case together with accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of redemption.

Upon a change of control of the Company, holders have the right to have their Debentures repurchased at 105% of face value plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of repurchase.

The Debentures, Debenture Warrants and any Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Debenture Warrants are subject to a statutory hold period under applicable Canadian securities laws, expiring on April 25, 2022 with respect to Units issued on December 24, 2021 and May 1, 2022 with respect to Units issued on December 31, 2021. Debentures, Debenture Warrants and Common Shares corresponding to subsequent tranches of Units will be subject to a four-month hold period starting from the date of issuance of the applicable Units.

Certain directors and senior officers of the Company have subscribed for Units in the Offering, in an aggregate principal amount totaling $490,000. Each subscription by a director or senior officer of the Company is considered to be a “related party transaction” for purposes of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing date of the Offering as the details of the Offering and the participation therein by each “related party” of the Company were not settled until shortly prior to the closing of the Offering, and the Company wished to close the Offering on an expedited basis for sound business reasons. The Company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements available under MI 61-101. The Company is exempt from the formal valuation requirement in section 5.4 of MI 61-101 and the minority shareholder approval requirement in section 5.6 of MI 61-101 in reliance on section 5.5(a) and section 5.7(1)(a), respectively, of MI 61-101, as the fair market value of the transaction, insofar as it involves interested parties, is not more than the 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.

Unity Rd. Inks First Agreement in South Dakota https://mjshareholders.com/unity-rd-inks-first-agreement-in-south-dakota/ Thu, 16 Dec 2021 21:28:27 +0000 https://www.cannabisfn.com/?p=2936336

Unity Rd., the cannabis dispensary franchise from Item 9 Labs Corp. (OTCQX: INLB), announced today the signing of an agreement that will bring the brand’s first shop to South Dakota. The retailer has partnered with local serial entrepreneur BJ Olson and his business partner to develop at least one Unity Rd. shop in the state. The Unity Rd. team is currently guiding them through the state’s dispensary license process.

Previously a multi-unit franchisee in the technology repair space, Olson’s entrepreneurial career spans multiple industries, including wireless technology, retail and clothing.

“Signing on with Unity Rd. was a no brainer,” explained Olson. “Though I have a deep entrepreneurial background and experience in retail, I know operating a dispensary adds a significant level of intricacies to navigate. Unity Rd. reduces hurdles and provides a proven playbook on how to be a successful, compliant and resourceful leader in our market.”

Olson and his partner are true believers in the power of cannabis, both directly experiencing the medicinal benefits of the plant first-hand. Olson added, “The education component is huge for my business partner and I. We want to bring an education-first approach to our shopping experience and Unity Rd. offers the continued training our team will need to provide true, high-level knowledge to our community.”

South Dakota recently began allowing physicians to certify medical cannabis patients and several municipalities have started approving dispensary licenses before they go to the state level for final consideration. Entrance into South Dakota marks nine states, from coast-to-coast, where Unity Rd. has agreements signed with local entrepreneurs to bring the brand to their home markets.

“Unity Rd. is the intersection of where local business ownership meets cannabis,” shared Mike Weinberger, Chief Franchise Officer at Unity Rd. “Adding partners such as BJ to our team who believe in the power of cannabis and are seasoned entrepreneurs, validates Unity Rd. as an industry trailblazer ripe for growth.”

Unity Rd. offers the safest route for cannabis entrepreneurs interested in staking their claim in an industry that’s bursting with potential. The dispensary franchise’s time-tested Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and veteran team, with a combined 120+ years of cannabis experience, guide franchise partners through every operational function of the business, whether it be securing a license or assisting with cash flow, product selection or changing regulations.

Industry newcomers have deemed Unity Rd. the go-to franchise opportunity for entering and navigating the complex cannabis industry. The marijuana dispensary franchise is actively seeking qualified partners who would benefit from the systems, processes and ongoing support the franchise offers. As it stands, Unity Rd. currently has multiple agreements signed with nearly 20 entrepreneurial groups who are in various stages of development nationwide.

To learn more about the Unity Rd. franchise opportunity, contact [email protected], call 720-923-5262 or visit unityrd.com.

ABOUT UNITY RD.

The industry trailblazer is the first to bring the cannabis dispensary franchise model to the United States—with duality of prowess in both industries to back it up. Built up from a collective 200 years in the legal cannabis industry and franchising, the company helps eager operators enter the complex industry with ease. The marijuana franchise pioneer offers its partners the knowledge, resources, and ongoing support needed to compliantly and successfully operate a dispensary.

Aleafia Health Completes Breakthrough Medical Cannabis Export to Germany https://mjshareholders.com/aleafia-health-completes-breakthrough-medical-cannabis-export-to-germany/ Thu, 03 Jun 2021 15:29:54 +0000 https://www.cannabisfn.com/?p=2920707

TORONTO, June 03, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Aleafia Health Inc. (TSX: AH, OTCQX: ALEAF) (“Aleafia Health” or the “Company”), a global leader in cannabis wellness products and services, is pleased to announce that dried flower grown at its Niagara greenhouse facility has been successfully exported to Germany. Gaining access to Europe’s most mature legal cannabis market is an important breakthrough for Aleafia Health, with fulfilment of successive purchase orders to Germany currently underway.

Germany represents the second major medical cannabis market to which the Company has successfully completed exports. Import and export permits have been secured for two additional orders to Australia, with the shipments expected to occur in June.

“The investments we’ve made in the highest levels of global regulatory compliance are just now beginning to pay dividends as we gain access to the largest medical cannabis market in the world. The shipment itself is an incredibly important breakthrough. More importantly, it represents an entirely new sales channel that will deliver consistent, repeatable revenue,” said Aleafia Health CEO Geoffrey Benic. “With such high barriers to entry, the German cannabis market opportunity perfectly complements this quarter’s continued growth in our domestic medical and adult-use channels.”

The European cannabis market is expected to be worth $4.7 billion by 2025, with Germany alone representing nearly half the total market size, according to research from Prohibition Partners.

The first shipment features Aleafia Health’s signature THC cultivar Sour Kush. While dried flower currently available in Germany is largely irradiated, the product shipped exceeded stringent quality standards and did not require irradiation, offering a significant competitive advantage in product quality. The export was completed through the EU-GMP certified facility of a strategic partner.
