"The fact that we are being noticed in Florida as a recognized leader and the only public company within the sector is of extreme importance as this legislation unfolds. We are hopeful that Agritek Holdings with its many resources in Colorado and our home base in Florida can be of assistance to the legislative branch and the Florida Department of Health to be considered as a viable partner in Florida once this legislation is approved. Further, I have recently accepted a board position with the Florida Medical Cannabis Association, the only recognized association within the state that represents potential applicants, works with legislators, lobbyists and medical professionals that will provide guidance and expect to help shape legislation as it comes to pass. I truly believe Agritek Holdings is in the best position as a potential designated partner to the five potential licensees as a Florida based public Company, managed by Florida residents and over 10 years of industry experience within the sector," stated B. Michael Friedman, CEO of Agritek Holdings.
