Premium cannabis brand The Supreme Cannabis Company Inc.
(TSX.V: FIRE) (OTC: SPRWF) (FRA: 53S1) is building on the successes of an
expansion and marketing effort that brought in a 229 percent year-over-year
sales growth during the past year, thanks largely to its high-quality 7ACRES brand.
The company announced this month that it will develop and launch an additional
lineup of premium products in conjunction with Khalifa Kush Enterprises Canada
ULC (“KKE Canada”).
The products are expected to include pre-rolls, extracts,
capsules and cannabis oils to be sold by Supreme Cannabis under the KKE brand,
based on KKE’s flagship “Khalifa Kush” strain established in the United States
market, according to a December 6 news release (http://ibn.fm/GhqtX).
“With the idea for ‘Kush and Orange Juice’ being created in
Toronto, it’s the perfect start for the international expansion of Khalifa
Kush. My team and I have spent the past year finding a partner that shares our
vision, values and passion for cannabis,” KKE principal Wiz Khalifa stated in
the release. “The team at Supreme Cannabis understands the importance of high
quality cannabis and how to produce high quality cannabis at scale. I am very
excited to be working with them.”
The new premium cannabis brand will be offered in Canada and
some additional international markets, excluding the United States. Under the
terms of the five-year partnership, KKE Canada will provide Supreme Cannabis
with consulting services on brand management and cultivation, including
cannabis strain selection and consumer education services.
During the course of the renewable five-year partnership,
Supreme Cannabis will have exclusive right to commercialize cannabis products
under the KKE brand internationally (excluding the United States) for three
years, subject to market approval by KKE and a legal framework in which to
operate.
KKE Canada will receive more than 5.7 million common shares
of Supreme Cannabis and an initial cash payment of C$1 million, followed by
annual royalty payments based on the sale of products developed under the
partnership.
“Wiz is a globally-recognized cannabis taste maker and
connoisseur,” Supreme Cannabis Founding President John Fowler stated. “KKE has
had incredible success in U.S. adult-use markets, establishing a brand that is
synonymous with ultra-premium quality, based on world-leading genetics… We’re
excited to be working with KKE Canada to build another brand with the same
commitment to quality (as 7ACRES) to continue the premiumization of our brand
portfolio.”
7ACRES flower is focused on pleasing three primary senses:
aroma, visual appeal and flavor, according to Fowler. It is cultivated in a
342,000-square-foot facility that is building toward an annual output of 50,000
kilograms of capacity by the new year. The company has also reached an
agreement to acquire communications firm Bayfield Strategy, Inc., which is
expected to help with brand marketing (http://ibn.fm/2vzEu). The 2018 Canadian Cannabis Awards
presented by Lift & Co. (TSX.V: LIFT) recently honored 7ACRES as the ‘Brand
of the Year’ in its fifth annual proceedings (http://ibn.fm/EVXQy).
