DJACF Subsidiary Completes Pre-Sales Inspection at West Kelowna
Canada’s first vertically-integrated cannabis brand house, Hiku Brands Company Ltd. (CSE: HIKU) (OTC: DJACF), through its DOJA Cannabis Ltd. subsidiary, this morning announced that it has completed Health Canada’s pre-sales license inspection of its West Kelowna facility. Per the update, Health Canada inspectors were onsite at the West Kelowna project throughout a three-day period ended on February 15, 2018, in an effort to verify the information submitted by DOJA as part of its application and assess the company’s compliance with applicable sections of the Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations. This milestone is particularly noteworthy as it coincides with Hiku subsidiary TS Brandco Holdings Inc. being conditionally awarded one of only four master retail licenses through Manitoba’s highly competitive request for proposal process for the right to operate retail cannabis stores in the province. Hiku notes that, with the license win in Manitoba, the company has increased its internal forecasts for retail demand related to its branded cannabis flower and oil, and, as a result, it has decided to accelerate the build-out of DOJA’s second facility in Kelowna, British Columbia.
Hiku is focused on handcrafted cannabis production, immersive retail experiences, and building a portfolio of iconic, engaging cannabis lifestyle brands. Hiku is differentiated as the only Canadian craft cannabis producer with a significant national retail footprint and a growing brand house including premium cannabis lifestyle brands DOJA, Tokyo Smoke, and Van der Pop. Hiku’s wholly-owned subsidiary, DOJA Cannabis Ltd., is a federally licensed producer pursuant to the ACMPR, owning two production facilities in the heart of British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley. The company operates a network of retail stores selling coffee, clothing and curated accessories, across British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario.
