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 Organigram Holdings Inc. (TSXV: OGI) (OTCQX: OGRMF), SLANG Worldwide (CSE: SLNG), Trulieve Cannabis (OTC: TCNNF) (CSE: TRUL), Choom Holdings Ltd. (CSE: CHOO) (OTCQB: CHOOF), Gabriella's Kitchen Inc. (CSE: GABY), Liht Cannabis Corp. (CSE: LIHT) (OTCQX: LIHTF) and Ovation Science Inc. (CSE: OVAT).
Organigram Holdings Inc., the parent company of Organigram Inc., a leading licensed producer of cannabis, announced the release of an immersive 360-degree virtual facility experience, highlighting innovative indoor production practices at its Moncton, New Brunswick campus.
"We are told time and time again by industry experts, analysts and investors who visit that our production facility is precedent-setting for indoor cannabis production," Organigram CEO Greg Engel said. "We're proud of the innovation and engineering that's gone into the design; our geographic location makes it challenging for many visitors to visit in person, so we're eager to offer them an inside look from wherever they may be in the world."
The tour, available as an immersive 360 experience for both Android and iOS-enabled devices, takes viewers through Organigram's entire production process, from propagation to packaging. Facility infrastructure including mechanical controlling, irrigation and the campus' 40-megawatt substation are also highlighted.
"We've learned a lot since beginning production back in 2014. We're proud to have established industry best practices and have modified our production to maximize both available space and efficiency. Our three-tiered growing model is one-of-a-kind in Canadian cannabis production, and users get to experience what it's like to be inside a flowering room surrounded by plants on all sides. Minus the aroma, it's very close to being there."
SLANG Worldwide, a global cannabis consumer packaged goods company, and Trulieve Cannabis, a Florida-based national cannabis company, announced a new strategic partnership to offer cannabis patients in Florida access to leading cannabis brands in Trulieve's dispensaries across the state. Pursuant to the partnership, Trulieve has an exclusive license to SLANG's extensive portfolio through its U.S. subsidiary, National Concessions Group, Inc. (doing business as Organa Brands).
"Great partnerships and collaboration are foundational to SLANG's culture, scalability, and growth strategy," said SLANG's CEO Peter Miller. "Not only does Trulieve operate one of the most impressive cannabis cultivation and distribution businesses in Florida, they also share SLANG's commitment to bringing leading cannabis products to consumers. Every year, SLANG products deliver millions of high-quality cannabis experiences to consumers around the world and, in partnership with Trulieve, we look forward to providing those same exceptional cannabis products to Florida's patients."
With over 180,000 registered medical marijuana patients, a figure that has tripled since 2017, Florida represents one of the most significant cannabis markets in the United States. Trulieve is responsible for consistently producing and distributing between 60% and 80% of cannabis in the state, per the Florida Department of Health.
Choom, through a licensed enterprise-level platform, has completed the build out of a top tier e-commerce retail solution. This online storefront will provide a customized shopping experience that's integrated with Choom's retail stores and capable of scaling to $500M+ annually. Choom has ensured the platform's flexibility to compliantly handle both B2C and B2B sales to service and sell to any type of buyer in the cannabis industry.
Chris Bogart, President & CEO, states, "For the last 6 months we have been building out our e-commerce capabilities in parallel with our brick and mortar footprint. As part of building a cannabis brand presence across the country, we want to ensure Choom is positioned to reach all consumers through all available retail channels. We've invested strategically in our e-commerce capabilities and look forward to providing an industry leading online storefront for consumers to connect with our brand".
Gabriella's Kitchen Inc., an innovative and leading-edge cannabis wellness company, announced a joint venture with Eximius Coffee LLC to launch a line of cannabis and CBD infused coffee beverages and infused single serve grounds suitable for steeping. Eximius is the third largest coffee importer in the U.S. with products sold in retail grocery stores throughout the U.S. under a variety of brand names, including Cappio™. The economics of the transaction will see an equal sharing of costs and revenues between the joint venture partners.
The cold brew coffee market is on a tear, growing 12% in volume and 14% in retail sales in 2017 according to Beverage Marketing Corp., New York.
The cannabis infused cold brew coffees will be manufactured at The Oil Plant GABY's licensed manufacturing facility in Santa Rosa, California using high grade quality oil extractions for which TOP has become known. TOP's oil extracts became immortalized in the film, Weed the People, a documentary by Ricki Lake and Abby Epstein which tells the real-life experiences of families who used oil manufactured by TOP to treat their children's cancer, and realized amazing success.
The cannabis-infused coffees will in turn be distributed to licensed retailers (also known as dispensaries) by Sonoma Pacific Distribution, a licensed distributor that is currently in the process of being acquired by GABY as announced in the Company's press release issued October 23, 2018.
The Hemp derived CBD infused cold brew coffee will be manufactured by Xtract Xperts using hemp CBD oil extracted in their facility in Oregon and will be launched into the mainstream market, as legally allowable, for distribution using GABY's relationships and infrastructure.
Liht Cannabis Corp. announced that it has received its second certification for both of its cultivation facilities in Las Vegas, Nevada. The certification was issued by Certified Kind, an industry equivalent program to USDA Organic Certification.
On January 16, 2019, the Company received its second organically grown certification, from Certified Kind whose rules have been modeled after (IFOAM) International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements - Norms for Organic Production and Processing, the USDA National Organic Program (NOP) standards, and the organic standards of the European Union, Canada, and Mexico.
Certified Kind performs rigorous inspections, verifying compliance to the Certified Kind rules of processes and production. They sample test for over 200+ pesticide residues.
The US federal government will not allow organic certification of cannabis or cannabis products as a result producers need their own certification standard. Growers and edible producers are not legally allowed to use the term "Organic" to label and market their products. Certified Kind was started as an alternative to USDA Organic certification.
Certified Kind offers an effective and transparent way for cannabis producers to prove their commitment to earth-friendly production practices that meet, and in some cases, exceed USDA Organic standards.
Ovation Science Inc., with the goal to be the leader in the topical transdermal cannabis market by leveraging its patented skin delivery technology and its twenty-plus years of skincare research and development, in conjunction with Cannabiniers, a global cannabis brand management company, today unveiled the creation of a new product category for the cannabis market: recreational transdermal creams.
This first-to-market recreational cannabis product has been formulated to quickly deliver a high-dose of THC into the bloodstream (transdermal). This new product is marketed and distributed in the USA by Cannabiniers under the name BASKiN GLOW. BASKiN GLOW contains 500 milligrams of THC and 50 milligrams of CBD in each 59ml jar.
"In response to the urging from consumers looking for a real choice in recreational cannabis products that do not involve smoking and that have a far quicker onset than edibles, we created a high-potency, fast-acting THC dominant transdermal cream," said Terry Howlett, President of Ovation. "We know this product will be a game-changer in the cannabis industry and we are excited to be the leader in this new category." He added, "We know that one of the best ways to accelerate the growth of our Company is to create highly effective, unique products and that's what we have accomplished as this product not only fills an unmet need for consumers but also helps create greater value for our shareholders. While we're excited where our Company is today, we're really just getting started."
The recreational transdermal cream has been developed using Ovation's drug delivery technology and has the following unique distinctions; Proprietary polymer delivery system that delivers high-dose THC to the bloodstream; bypassing first-pass through the liver;
Patent-protection means no other cream can deliver like Ovation's; the unique formula delivers THC transdermally without the use of a patch; it's invisible; Significant demand has been established with multiple pre-orders; Third-party testing verifies potency of each product; Available in Nevada dispensaries and coming soon to California and other states where legalized.
"We are excited to be launching our fourth Ovation product under the BASKiN brand, especially one that will disrupt the cannabis market; BASKiN Glow," said Tim Walters, President, and COO of Cannabiniers; a global cannabis brand management company. "With BASKiN Glow you don't have to smoke it or eat it; it's a consumer-friendly alternative that you discreetly apply to your forearm. Within minutes you can 'Get your Glow on.'"
He added, "We have already seen how great the demand can be as the presales of Glow have been outstanding; surpassing any of our other product launches. With this high demand already, we know that Glow is positioned to take top category position in the recreational cannabis consumer products and we are excited to lead the charge."
