U.S. gains ground on struggling Canada in race for pot revenue
Submitted by Marijuana News on Thu, 04/11/2019
Planet 13 Holdings Inc. generated more revenue from its one flagship store in Las Vegas last month than Cronos Group Inc. did across Canada in the fourth quarter, yet Cronos’s market value is about 21 times larger than Planet 13’s.
The valuation gap is just one dramatic example of the persistent disconnect between Canadian and U.S. cannabis stocks, and a reminder of the potential size of the American pot market as legalization spreads.
Cannabis companies with U.S. operations have been held back by the illegality of the drug at the federal level, which has depressed their share prices because it’s harder for them to access the top exchanges, banks and institutional investors. But the big Canadian cannabis companies are facing their own limitations and restrictions that are eroding their first-mover advantage.
“On a whole bunch of fronts, the head start that we had is rapidly eroding,” said Neil Selfe, chief executive officer of Infor Financial Group Inc., one of the top investment bankers to the cannabis industry. “In many ways, the U.S. multi-state operators have a significant competitive advantage now over the Canadian companies.”
Based on their latest quarterly numbers, the two biggest cannabis companies by revenue are Canada’s Canopy Growth Corp. and Aurora Cannabis Inc. The next four operate in the U.S., and American companies now make up six of the top 10. In addition, most of those U.S.-focused firms generated higher gross margins than their Canadian counterparts in the most recent quarter, according to Bloomberg data. Among the top 10 companies by market value, the split is now 50-50.
The numbers are indicative of the double threat faced by Canada’s cannabis producers: domestic sales limitations and exclusion from the huge potential of the U.S. market.
Canada’s legalization of recreational pot in October gave its companies early access to the capital markets and an eager investor base, but the rollout has been patchy, with product shortages and a limited retail network curbing legal sales. Meanwhile, any Canadian pot companies that are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq are restricted from operating in the U.S. because of federal laws.
This means Canadian licensed producers risk missing out on a market that’s estimated to be worth US$22 billion in legal spending by 2022, leaving the spoils to their U.S. counterparts. By contrast, Canadian sales are forecast to reach US$3.8 billion by then.
Several Canadian firms have established international operations in places like Europe and South America, but “that isn’t really a substitute for U.S. growth,” Selfe said. Canada’s restrictive marketing rules make it difficult to establish recognizable consumer brands, and the country’s cold climate isn’t ideal for growing pot. In addition, U.S. legalization of hemp has made the popular non-intoxicating CBD compound more widely available south of the border, all adding up to a disadvantage for Canada, he said.
For now, Canadian producers benefit from significantly higher prices than their U.S. counterparts. Wholesale prices averaged C$6.94 per gram in the week ended April 5, or about $2,359 per pound, more than double the average price of $1,108 per pound in the U.S., according to New Leaf Data Services LLC, which tracks wholesale cannabis prices. That gap is bound to close as significant growing capacity comes online over the next year, eroding margins.
“There should be sirens and red lights flashing for anyone with significant wholesale price exposure in Canada,” said Jonathan Rubin, CEO of New Leaf. “I think the way that the market is evolving suggests there’s going to be extraordinary price erosion.”
This poses a challenge to Canadian companies that are already struggling to generate revenue growth. Vivien Azer, an analyst at Cowen & Co., recently cut her revenue estimates for Canopy, Aurora, Cronos and Tilray Inc., citing modest growth in the first quarter and a slow retail rollout. Ontario, Canada’s most populous province, just opened its first 10 stores on April 1.
Meanwhile, the big U.S. players are engaging in large-scale acquisitions, including Harvest Health & Recreation Inc.’s recent acquisition of Verano Holdings LLC and Cresco Labs Inc.’s deal for Origin House, both all-stock deals worth over US$800 million.
“I think you’ll continue to see a massive amount of consolidation in the U.S.,” said Jamie Nagy, head of the cannabis M&A group at Canaccord Genuity Group Inc., one of the top pot bankers. “The question is whether the Canadian guys will buy the U.S. guys when the U.S. market opens up, or is it the other way around?”
Canada hasn’t yet lost its first-mover advantage, though it’s at risk, according to a recent analysis of the market by Arcview Market Research and BDS Analytics.
“By being the first among major world economies to move to adult-use legalization, Canada has already created the most valuable cannabis companies in the world,” the report said. “Whatever happens in their domestic market, the race for world domination is theirs to lose.”
LOTS of revenue in the making now, and I would only expect it to continue to increase..a real business is forming and taking shape..this is most certainly the best time to get in while it’s still cheap.
$LVVV
Obviously Market does agree as LVVV goes higher and higher.
Lots being accomplished here or LVVV will be under .10 soon.
$LVVV
Top far from being in with LVVV. looking promising.
$LVVV
LVVV looking good again today. is the uplisting by LVVV still happening?. Yep, sure is. : )
$LVVV
Bottom line is they are now building momentum with everything, Clone Sales, Distribution, build out of Robles, additional licenses.. 7X Pure..
Things are only going to get better from here on out imo. As REVS pick up, and they will, I can see them reinvesting everything back into the business, for expansion, build out of robles, additional licenses, etc.. It may seem slow here, but i am more than confident that they are SWAMPED right now and ROCKING it out.
Load & Hold, just a matter of time before we explode here, and quite frankly, i dont think were far off before this all goes legal on a federal level.. this year, maybe next imo.
BAM! $LVVV
Good points GCM, with a slew of growers in the area, I’m sure orders are just piling up...I’m thinking when they land a deal with a bigger grow operation is where a more formal agreement might make sense...something on a regular basis.. Needs and demand for various products change all the time, but if you’re asking for 10k clones, pretty sure we want to be assured payment of some sort before going all out to deliver these..
With that being said, I’m thinking the real $$ is gonna come from the TONS of smaller growers everywhere, who don’t have distribution license, plus no bulk discounts, a gap LVVV can fill...giving higher profit margins and as the regulars fall into place they can start to regulate their grow cycles accordingly to accommodate, leaving space for special requests..
Distribution is going to tie all this in nicely...in a BIG way imo.
$LVVV
A MONSTER in the making we have here! Cant wait for the next update.. maybe some Clone Agreements with a larger grower? Up List would certainly be a welcome sight. : )
$LVVV
I don’t think that’s the same location as they are in?
How about LiveWire Ergogenics Subsidiary GHC Ventures Enters into Distribution Agreements with Two Leading California Cannabis Manufacturers
Progression forward, REVS coming in, this stock is so undervalued now for what they have going on its crazy!
BAM! $LVVV
No photo...if on desktop, easier just to drag and drop photo.
WOW, is that a pic of yours? Wish i can start that hobby here! LOL
$LVVV
Uptown CannaCo,
https://uptowncannaco.co/
$LVVV
After 3 power packed PRs just released within 2 weeks? and knowing more to come?, NOTHING smart about that at all. But then again, if someone wants to get themselves 13 bucks for beer money, who can argue that? LOL!
Its gonna happen, just timing issues, w/ year end and quarterly reports, everything else they have going on.. They are working on it but these audits scrutinized every penny.. Its gonna require a little more patience i feel, but it will happen at some point soon i hope as well, and will be a great launchpad in addition to everything else they have going on.
$LVVV
LiveWire intends to accelerate the expansion of this business model with new facilities and new partnerships currently under negotiation.
Looks like we may be seeing more coming our way soon. : )
$LVVV
With everything we see going on now, we should be easily trading back up in the 5 cent range or more even. DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENTS NOW IN PLAY?? SELLING CLONES ALREADY?? A 25k SQUARE FOOT BUILD OUT FOR CLONES?? COACHELLA OPERATING??
Seriously undervalued here imo to what they have going on existing and future potential.

LiveWire Ergogenics Expands Cloning Cultivation Facility at its Coachella California Nursery to Meet Clone Demand
Anaheim, CA – March 26, 2019 - LiveWire Ergogenics, Inc. (OTC: LVVV) announced today that its subsidiary, GHC Ventures, has expanded operations at its cannabis cloning cultivation facility in Coachella, California. Two additional production PODs have been added, giving GHC Ventures additional square feet of valuable growing space. LiveWire Ergogenics is a company focused on the acquisition, licensing and managing of special purpose real estate properties for use as legal and fully self-contained turnkey production and distribution facilities for cannabis-based products and services in California.
This expansion will help meet the rapidly increasing demand from licensed Southern California cultivators for the Company’s sought-after genetics of proprietary, high-quality and pesticide-free “7X Pure” verified cannabis clones it has grown and is currently delivering. GHC Ventures will fill the new PODs with additional “mother” plants to gain valuable production capacity.
Bill Hodson, CEO of LiveWire Ergogenics, explains, “We installed additional PODs at our satellite nursery earlier than planned, because demand for our genetics from customers in the Coachella Valley and throughout Southern California has exceeded our initial forecasts. This is another important step towards the realization of our goal to become the leading supplier of the highest quality cannabis products and services, as a fully vertically-integrated state-licensed cannabis nursery and distribution operation in California.”
“As announced earlier this year,” Hodson adds, “LiveWire Ergogenics has also been granted a minor use permit for a 25,000 square feet nursery in Paso Robles. The increased capacity in Coachella will produce instant inventory for this state-of-the-art facility, so we will be able to make an immediate impact and supply growers throughout Central California as well.”

7X COMPLIANCE & DOSAGE VERIFICATION SYSTEM PROCESS FLOW
The 7X Pure Dosage and Verification system is an assembled set of verified documents pertaining to compliance and dosage claims and the assignment of a lot-code relating to the sum of all seven highly scrutinized parts.
Steps-01.
Audit Supplier – Identify supplier non conformances in the import and process of raw materials
Review Certificate of Origin – trace and track the origin of the raw material
Review Certificate of Analysis – every lot of raw material should have a C of A, this should be reviewed before considering next steps
Steps-02
Cannabinoid Summary – Identify the strain in the cannabinoid profile via lab testing.
Total Active Cannabinoids – Identify the active cannabinoids. There are over 66 chemicals unique to the plant.
Terpene test results - terpene analysis is crucial for differentiating strains of cannabis as terpenes have a major influence on the medical and psychological effects of a plant.
Steps-03
Pesticide test – verify the safety of the medicine. A pesticide test can detect trace amounts of chemical pesticides in dried flowers and cannabis concentrates.
Microbiological Test – verify the results regarding the presence and breeding of micro-organisms such as specific pathogens, bacteria, yeast and mold.
Residual Solvent Test - identify the presence of harmful solvents impurities and/or other added odorants and chemicals present in super-concentrated forms.
Steps-04
THC Dosage – identify the percentage of THC in the strain. One gram of cannabis equals 1000mg of dry weight with the total THC content of 100mg.
CBD Dosage – identify the percentage of CBD.
Legal Dosage compliance for oils and edibles – review state requirements and verify dosage conforms to label claims supported by lab testing.
Steps-05
Food Safety Audit - verify proper food safety practices at processing facilities. This report data is used to help select suppliers and validate internal policies and procedures.
HACCP Plan (Hazard Analysis of Critical Control Points - Storage and distribution of a food product is scientifically analyzed for microbiological, physical and chemical hazards.
FDA / Bioterrorism Plan - Verify the manufacturer has registered under the Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002
Steps-06
Benefit Claims - Structure/function claims may describe the role of a nutrient or dietary ingredient intended to affect the normal structure or function of the human body.
Labeling requirements – Verify primary panel and informational panel adhere to state laws such as font size, “cannabis-infused”, manufacturer contact information and website
Labeling restrictions – confirm labeling does not contain false origin of cannabis grown, cartoon imagery or product that imitates candy packaging.
Steps-07
Sound statistical sampling of finished product to insure accuracy - determine whether to accept or reject a production lot as products leaves the plant, or prior to distribution.
Reserve sample (retains)of each product lot - Hold reserve samples under conditions consistent with product labels or under ordinary storage conditions.
Final Certificate of Analysis of finished product - Verify that the product meets its product specification. The final C of A should contain the actual results obtained from testing performed as part of quality control of an individual batch of the product.

LiveWire Ergogenics’ 7X Pure Cannabis Compliance and Dosage Verification System to Run on Blockchain Technology
Anaheim,CA, Jan. 30, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LiveWire Ergogenics, Inc. (OTC: LVVV) today announced that it will be using blockchain technology to create a completely secure system for cannabis compliance and dosage verification. The company, which focuses on research partnerships, product development, acquisition, and management of turnkey production facilities for cannabis-based products and services, will be applying blockchain’s decentralized ledger technology to its 7X Pure Cannabis Compliance and Dosage Verification System. Respected blockchain technology expert Leon Fleyshman has been named the Senior Advisor for this project.
LiveWire Ergogenics’ 7X Pure Cannabis Compliance and Dosage Verification System provides third party verification of cannabis material origin, potency, purity, dosage, labeling and more, and then secures each product with a digital identity and clearly identifiable chain of custody.
The use of blockchain technology will make the 7X Pure system completely secure, transparent and verifiable. LiveWire Ergogenics will be able to protect the confidentiality of growers’ and manufacturers’ intellectual property while providing retailers, consumers, government officials and others verification that the growers’ and manufacturers’ claims are true.
“On the blockchain every iteration of every piece of data automatically contains all prior iterations as well,” explains Mr. Fleyshman, “and every new data entry is immediately processed, confirmed and stored by numerous computers around the world. The result is a tamper-proof system that provides a reliability factor that just doesn’t exist with any other technology.”
The 7X Pure verification system, which is designed as a parallel service to the seed-to-sale data provided by marijuana tracking software, will help growers and manufacturers meet increasing compliance requirements related to logistics, quality and transparency. It will also provide a high level of assurance to everyone from end users to municipalities, who will be able to enter a lot code into a website to quickly confirm that a product’s claims regarding material origin, potency, purity, dosage and more have all been properly verified.
The 7X Pure system utilizing blockchain technology will also serve as the backbone for an open supply chain network, with data privacy built into the decentralized blockchain infrastructure.
“I can’t emphasize enough the importance of data privacy in this industry,” states Bill Hodson, CEO of LiveWire. “While ‘track and trace’ requirements are being driven by state and local agencies, trade partners in the cannabis industry are understandably protective of their proprietary grow techniques, the integrity of their marijuana strains, and other trade secrets. Marrying the security of blockchain technology with the many benefits of the 7X Pure verification system will therefore be a game-changer for the cannabis industry. Plus, manufacturers will appreciate the fact that they won’t have to learn new software, attend classes or click through endless PowerPoint presentations to participate!”
Leon Fleyshman, the project’s Senior Advisor, is CEO of The Code Corporation, a management consulting firm in Southern California. Mr. Fleyshman has extensive experience in various activities related to Cryptocurrency and the underlying technologies that drive the transformative potential of blockchain. He has also been a vocal advocate for expanding research into medical cannabis. As Senior Advisor, Mr. Fleyshman is responsible for the technical strategy, including determining the best way to make use of blockchain technology for the 7X Pure platform.
As part of the 7X Pure Cannabis Compliance and Dosage Verification System, LiveWire Ergogenics has set up its 7X Strain Vault. Growers can submit their strains to comply with step one of the seven-step verification process, which is “confirm identity.” To review the entire 7X Pure Cannabis Compliance and Dosage Verification process, please visit www.7XPure.com.

7X Pure DD: LVVV takes the MANDATORY testing aspect even further, by verifying the genetics, supply line, etc and making the info available to anyone. All you have to do is type in the product ID and a complete history is available, secured with blockchain.
It could be the standard one day. Consumers, suppliers, etc could look for the little "7X Pure" tag and check it out on their phone right then and there, before they buy... Do i see an App coming??? People could just scan the code, fast
Nothing is a sure thing, but the MASSIVE NEED for this type of a system, within a HIGHLY regulated MJ market, makes complete sense... and it makes this stock seem very cheap to me.
Imagine if they could just average .02 every time their "seal of approval" is placed on a clone, buds, edibles, concentrates, CBD drinks, supplements, etc. There will be millons of these products sold each day... Just 1 million people consuming a CBD drink is $20,000 PER DAY. This is just one type of product!

DD: Clones have a quick profit cycle. Once they get set up, LVVV can expand and increase sales fast with their experience.
Experience is everything for a company like this. There is no product that they need to educate the consumer on, everyone knows what MJ does... It sells itself
The most important question of all is: Can they produce LARGE SCALE with tight quality standards? What does the DD suggest?

EXPERT FOCUS ON CLONING - NOT GROWING
The Company’s experts have over 25 years of combined experience in this burgeoning industry
and have assembled a massive genetics cloning library, over 160 stable strains, which is now available to LiveWire for
exploration and commercialization. This sector has high barriers to entry, considering the scientific
knowledge required to cultivate and propagate plants, and to understand the complex techniques
to study and produce new generations of desirable strains. The Company has a deep understanding
of the new technologies that are rapidly approaching and is aggressively exploring
new advances in cloning techniques, such as tissue culture cultivation. The Company’s near-term
plan is to support and guide the efforts of its experts to establish a legal, profitable and sustainable
business model that explores such new and potentially extremely profitable technologies and
markets in California, with the long-term goal of expanding nationally, as soon as legally feasible LVVV continues its push into the medical and recreational marijuana business to become the premier supplier for genetics cloning.
Investment Highlights of LVVV off the updated StockWatch report..
• Obtained cultivation/nursery and distribution permits from the city of Coachella, California
• Applied for permits at two more CA locations
• Approved for CA State distribution license from the California Bureau of Cannabis Control
• Acquired two minority equity positions and has entered master distribution agreements with three well established cannabis development and distribution companies

• Expansion into the sports and cosmetics markets for CBD or THC infused products
• Developing a proprietary “7xPure Compliance & Dosage Verification System” to become the industry “Gold Standard”. Accepted by the city of Coachella as official application system for CUP applicants
• Researching and reviewing potential acquisition targets and strategic alliances
Great report worth reading on the company
$LVVV
Livewire has a sophisticated and solid business plan, is run by an experienced management and development team and will be able to
satisfy typical financial industry due diligence requirements, once it has up-listed to OTCQB. Livewire is still in the startup
development stage but has begun implementing core sections of its business plan.
The Company’s initial focus will be on California, but is prepared to expand nationwide, once legally and economically feasible. Livewire has executed several key development and strategic
alliance agreements and has acquired minority equity interest in three established cannabis companies. The Company has obtained its
first two permits for the legal operation of its cultivation/nursery production facility in the city of Coachella, California and has been
granted a statewide distribution license. It has brought its OTC filings up to date and has submitted its application for up-listing to OTCQB.
Audits for the last two operating years have been completed, published and filed with the OTC. The company is committed to
consistently provide details of its plans, actions and results to provide full transparency to the public. Livewire expects to start generating revenues beginning in the 3rd to 4th quarter of 2018.
While the company’s strategic moves are not yet complete, LiveWire is well positioned in a sector of the industry with high barriers of
entry and has developed a branded strategy that should be attractive to investors in the “new” cannabis industry. Livewire will enter into
carefully evaluated agreements to raise the required funds to secure working capital required for the execution of its plans, without
generating extraordinary dilution for it existing shareholders. This should make it an attractive target for individual investor and retail
investors alike and will allow the Company to measurably spend on R&D and marketing and capture new markets via JVs and acquisitions.

State Distribution License Points:
First, It is 100% necessary to have this if cultivators and manufacturers want to get their products to retailers. Why? There are three primary reasons:
1 - Distributors are the only license type that can transport marijuana products and they’re also the only licensees that can coordinate the required third-party testing of licensees’ products.
- 7x PURE
2 - Prior to any retail sale, licensees must ensure that a distributor undertakes quality assurance packaging and labeling reviews of their products. hello again. 7X PURE
3 - Perhaps most importantly, distributors are almost exclusively in charge of collection and remittance of the cultivation and excise taxes to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (“CDTFA”). 7X Pure again w/ its Block Chain Technology.
HUGE SEGWAY FOR 7X PURE HERE FOLKS.. Were gonna be seeing a lot more of this in the coming months IMO.

The distributor is required for all the tax records. And when selling between licensed manufactures you need to show both the License and sellers permit. We have ‘em both now. As they stated in the report, 2019 is a new leg up for LVVV, we will be seeing big things happening here soon. This was needed to actually recognize revenue from MJ in a nutshell.
Navigation thru the State regs continues: our Cannabis Tax Permit has been issued under section 34014 of the California revenue and tax code. Let’s go!

5000 sq ft grow = $millions annually.. and WE HAVE A 25k Square Foot Facility! Soon as they have this set up, contracts in place...They will be ROCKING it out.. Taxes? So what! With as much as they can potentially make, take the hits for now, still make some money to expand in the meantime. The Govt regs will change at some point IMO. Just a matter of time.. Tick Tock..
* McDaib Broke this down for us *
Here's a breakdown of square footage production estimates for clones. Been doing this for 15+ years in Oregon and have a fairly good handle on realistic projections:
1) Avg clone needs at least 4" X 4" to grow horizontally, 12" vertically and be ready for sale in 3-4 weeks (each cutting needs to take root and show signs of vigor which can take 3-4 weeks).
2) Grow platforms can reasonably have a height of 12' and be manageable (with moveable ladders). Each horizontal level of the grow will need about 12 inches in height to allow for lighting, container and plant. That means a pod with 12' ceilings can grow 108 clones per sq ft of floor space on 12 verticle levels. I think the current pods used by LVVV are 8' but that can be altered so I'm going to stick with the 12' verticle height. (Height, and therefore production can be adjusted to whatever it is).
3) With 12' ceilings there would be 12 levels of clones, lights, containers, etc. Each sq ft of floor space would produce 108 clones.
4) With a 4 week rotation that means 108 clones per sq ft X 5,000 sq ft = 540K clones per month. 540,000 X 12 (months) = 6,480,000 clones produced yearly.
5) If Colorado, Washington and Oregon are any indication then LVVV can expect to receive between $10.00 and $35.00 per clone on a wholesale basis. Clone value depends on strain (THC and CBD percentages, length of time to harvest, quality of end product, reliabilty of strain genetics, buzz surrounding strain, etc, etc.).
6) If we assume a conservative average wholesale price per clone of $10.00 then a 5000 sq ft area that is 12' high should return a gross revenue yearly to LVVV of $648 million. The 7X Pure platform of LVVV could raise this average to much more. Especially with the just approved distribution license and LVVV's ability to gain the confidence of the industry who know what they may be able to get per clone.
How many square feet does LVVV need under cultivation and with the 7X Pure seal of approval to make every long on this board considerably better off?
NO BRAINER!!!

AIMHO, of course.............
LiveWire is one of the few emerging, handful of leading-edge and well-managed companies with a solid business model and led by an experienced and credible management and development team.
The Company is conducting credible research, has secured the first production license, will develop high-quality products, is establishing a 7X Verification and Dosing System and expected to generate significant value moving forward. LiveWire’s model is driven by the increasing market demand for legal, high-quality products and reliable services that will allow the Company to remain viable long term. LiveWire believes that it can execute on its business plan in a timely manner and will be able to generate significant ROI for its investors, subject to the timely availability of the required working capital. While current efforts are focused on the legal sector of the cannabis market, the expected regulatory relaxation of the rules and regulations by the Federal Government and a removal of CBD from the Schedule 1 should accelerate the sector growth even further. The currently existing uncertainty combined with rapidly accelerating growth is creating an early investment opportunity, similar to the early investment opportunities generated by the now top of the charts pioneer internet companies.

LiveWire Ergogenics Subsidiary GHC Ventures Enters into Distribution Agreements with Two Leading California Cannabis Manufacturers
Published: Apr 2, 2019 9:29 a.m. ET
Anaheim, CA, Apr 02, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE via COMTEX) -- Anaheim, CA, April 02, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LiveWire Ergogenics, Inc. (OTC: LVVV), announced today that its subsidiary, GHC Ventures, has entered into two new statewide distribution agreements with leading California specialty cannabis manufacturers, Under Pressure Extracts and Uptown CannaCo. These agreements significantly expand the size and reach of LiveWire Ergogenics' distribution network throughout California.
The California cannabis market itself is expanding rapidly, and manufacturers need a distribution partner that can quickly and efficiently get their product to market. As consumer preferences change frequently, product pricing, time to market and access to a large number of retailers across California is paramount.
GHC Distro, GHC Ventures' distribution arm, has a consumer-driven market approach, which benefits retailers as well. Through GHC Distro, retailers gain access to a wide range of new high-end cannabis products, all serviced through the solid and reliable GHC supply chain and distribution network.
"With these agreements we are providing the platform for our partners to legally distribute their products throughout California" states Bill Hodson, CEO of LiveWire Ergogenics, Inc. "As we build out a portfolio of hundreds of products that will be available for GHC distribution into the retail market, we are privileged to add the products of these well-established and recognized manufacturers to the GHC Distro's product roster for distribution through our California network. This will help accelerate the expansion of our statewide distribution model and support our stated goal to become one of the first vertically-integrated cannabis operations in California."
Contracted manufacturers will be supported by LiveWire's branding and marketing, GHC's track-and-trace operation for the manufacturers' qualifying products and utilization of GHC's licensed distribution facilities in Coachella, California, providing an opportunity to expand their business.
By opening GHC Ventures' California cannabis distribution network to manufacturers that pass LiveWire's stringent legal and environmental qualification process, the Company provides a large and solidly-structured legal distribution network for all qualifying California manufacturers. LiveWire intends to accelerate the expansion of this business model with new facilities and new partnerships currently under negotiation. The Company is actively seeking to work with licensed operators who are enthusiastic and qualified to ensure the delivery of high-caliber and legal cannabis products for the fast-growing California medical and recreational cannabis markets.
Under Pressure Extracts is a family-owned and operated licensed cannabis cultivation and distribution facility based out of Desert Hot Springs, California. Producing indoor grown cannabis in a clean, controlled environment with four flowering rooms, the Company can deliver fresh cannabis and related products on a constant two-week basis to the LiveWire distribution network.
Uptown CannaCo is a California-based company founded on the simple notion that cannabis is and will always remain an important and effective plant for a multitude of medical and recreational applications. Uptown CannaCo's products are lab tested, 100% organic and free from pesticides, with a focus on consistent and precise dosing. The Company believes that the highest quality cannabis concentrates on the market start with its proprietary extraction process. This process is designed to activate the medical properties of each customized strain mixture and, by using organic cannabinoids and terpenoids in each of its products, focused on unlocking the most therapeutic combinations of strains for potent, highly-specific effect.
