Plus Products Inc. (CSE: PLUS) is a branded cannabis-infused
products manufacturer of edibles created to support a healthy and active
lifestyle. Headquartered in San Mateo, California, PLUS™ concentrates on
producing edibles using extracts to ensure compliant, dosable and delicious
products that provide a consistent cannabis experience.
First introduced to the market in 2015 to rave reviews,
PLUS™ is now one of the top best-selling edible brands in California. PLUS™
operates through a wholly owned subsidiary, Carberry, and has four
cannabis-infused gummy candy SKUs (in addition to limited edition SKUs), that
are currently sold in over 200 licensed dispensaries and delivery services. All
products under the PLUS™ brand are produced in the company’s 12,000-square-foot
food-safe cannabis manufacturing facility in Adelanto, California.
PLUS Products shares are currently listed on the Canadian
Securities Exchange. PLUS™ raised CAD$20 million through the offering, for
which the lead underwriters were PI Financial and Canaccord Genuity. The
company intends to use a portion of the IPO proceeds to fund rapid product
capacity expansion, factory automation, working capital and new product
development.
Operating in the largest adult-use recreational market in
the U.S., PLUS Products holds a temporary manufacturing license in California
and was one of the first brands to bring fully compliant products to the legal
market. California legalized adult use recreational sales on Jan. 1, 2018, and
industry analysts expect edible sales there will continue to amass enviable
revenues. According to BDS Analytics, edibles made up 18 percent of marijuana
retail sales in February 2018 across licensed retailers in California, with
PLUS™ products ranking in the Top 10 of edible brands by retail dollar sales.
During the first half of 2018, PLUS Products generated
US$2.45 million in sales, a marked improvement over 2017’s US$1.07 million in
sales. The company’s established cannabis products are not only compliant with

PLUS™ product brands are:
