#Cannabis Companies Poised to Take the Lead in US Market: Harvest Health and Recreation (CSE: $HARV.C) (OTCQX: $HTHHF), Canopy Growth (TSX: $WEED.TO) (NYSE: $CGC), Cronos (NASDAQ: $CRON) (TSX: $CRON.TO) and Tilray (NASDAQ: $TLRY)


Point Roberts, WA and Delta, BC - January 31, 2019 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a leading investor news resource covering hemp and cannabis stocks releases a snapshot looking at cannabis companies entering, and potentially take the lead in the US market.
With the passing of the US Farm Bill, as well as more and more states legalizing medical and recreational cannabis, both Canadian and US companies are looking to establish themselves across multiple geographic regions in the United States.
One of the largest Canadian cannabis producers, Canopy Growth Corporation (TSX: WEED.TO) (NYSE: CGC), wasted little time entering the US marketplace. Earlier this month, the company was granted a licence by the State of New York to process and produce hemp.
Canopy Growth intends to invest between $100 million USD and $150 million USD in its New York operations, which will be capable of producing tons of hemp extract on an annual basis.
Harvest Health & Recreation Inc. (CSE: HARV) (OTCQX: HTHHF), a vertically integrated public cannabis company has been pushing hard to have one of the largest footprints in the US, having amassed 60 licenses across the United States. Harvest applied for (and won) licenses in 12 states and has a track record of winning in every category, including vertical, retail cultivation, and processing licenses. The company also recently announced that is has qualified for, and is trading on, the OTCQX Best Market.
"Since day one of going public, one of our goals has been to move onto the OTCQX. Harvest is one of the fastest growing companies in one of the fastest growing industries in the world, and OTCQX will allow us to continue harnessing that momentum," said Harvest Chairman, Jason Vedadi. "Working up the investor ladder as a cannabis company is a monumental task, and we are excited to continue making strides towards becoming the biggest cannabis brand in the world."
Other large players like Cronos Group Inc. (NASDAQ: CRON) (TSX: CRON.TO) are looking to gain US market advantage. Cronos recently announced that it has entered into a subscription agreement with Altria Group, Inc. in which Altria has agreed to make an approximately C$2.4 billion equity investment in Cronos Group on a private placement basis in exchange for common shares in the capital of the Company.
"Altria is the ideal partner for Cronos Group, providing the resources and expertise we need to meaningfully accelerate our strategic growth," said Cronos Group's Mike Gorenstein, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "The proceeds from Altria's investment will enable us to more quickly expand our global infrastructure and distribution footprint, while also increasing investments in R&D and brands that resonate with our consumers. Importantly, Altria shares our vision of driving long-term value through innovation, and we look forward to continuing to differentiate in this area. As one of the largest holding companies in the adult consumer products sector, Altria has decades of experience in regulatory, government affairs, compliance, product development and brand management that we expect to leverage, particularly as new markets for cannabis open around the world."
Tilray, Inc. (NASDAQ: TLRY), a global pioneer in cannabis production and distribution, made a similar announcement in that they have signed a long-term revenue-sharing agreement to market and distribute a portfolio of consumer cannabis products with Authentic Brands Group, an owner of a portfolio of global lifestyle and entertainment brands, in jurisdictions where regulations permit.
With a global retail footprint of over 100,000 points of sale and more than 4,500 branded freestanding stores and shop-in-shops, ABG's portfolio generates approximately US$9 billion in retail sales annually.
"We are thrilled to partner with ABG, a global leader known for expertly managing and marketing an owned portfolio of iconic brands," said Brendan Kennedy, Tilray President and CEO. "As we work to expand Tilray's global presence, this agreement leverages our complementary strengths and will be accretive to our shareholders as we reach new consumers across the entertainment, fashion, beauty, home, and health and wellness sectors. We look forward to working with ABG to bring unique and sought-after branded cannabis products to the marketplace."
Companies like Harvest Health (CSE: HARV) (OTCQX: HTHHF) may have the upper hand with regards to the US market, as a vertically integrated MSO, not to mention a fully funded company with the means to expand and keep up with State by State legalization, even against companies like Canopy Growth and Aurora. Their business model is well suited to succeed, with or without federal legalization in the United States.

#Cannabis Growth and Technology Innovation Hand-in-Hand; EnviroTechnologies International (OTC: $ETII), Canopy Rivers (TSXV: $RIV.V) (OTC: $CNPOF), Aphria (TSX: $APHA.TO) (NYSE: $APHA) and WeedMD (TSXV: WMD.V) (OTC: $WDDMF)


Point Roberts, WA and Delta, BC - January 31, 2019 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a leading investor news resource covering hemp and cannabis stocks releases a snapshot focusing on how the cannabis industry continues to force technology innovation as it faces new challenges with the sector's continuing rapid growth.
The cannabis industry has begun to fully affect the beverage, food, medical and pharmaceutical industries but one area cannabis has helped drive forward from inception has been the tech industry. Due to the complexity of the cannabis plant as well as the strict regulations surrounding it, technological innovations have been a "must have" for any cannabis company that hopes to expand and grow.
Canopy Rivers Inc. (TSXV:RIV.V) (OTC:CNPOF), an investment and operating platform structured to pursue investment opportunities in the emerging global cannabis sector, recently announced its equity investment in Headset, Inc., a data and analytics service provider for the cannabis industry. Canopy Rivers subscribed for C$4,084,500 of Series A Preferred Shares in Headset, representing the Company's first entry into a technology-focused cannabis vertical.
Headset is the first real-time business intelligence and analytics software platform for the cannabis industry. The experienced leadership team at Headset have deep roots in the cannabis industry, with Headset's founders having also founded Leafly, the world's largest cannabis information resource. With services that provide access to up-to-the-minute information on sales trends, emerging sectors, popular products, and pricing, Headset's proprietary software platform allows customers to use data to identify new areas of opportunity, understand the competition, and tailor product development.
Smaller technology companies like EnviroTechnologies International, Inc. (OTC: ETII), which develops and markets green, natural and organic products for diverse industries, confirmed that it is preparing to introduce new technology to licensed cannabis growers in the northwest that will help eliminate growth-impeding pathogens and stimulate harvest yields.
"What hasn't been covered as much is the potential and existence of fungal and contaminants that are prevalent in nearly all phases of plant growth, harvest, and post-harvest product processing of hemp and cannabis," said Gaylord Karren, ETI's President. "Mold and fungal presence in grow rooms, as well as outside grow facilities is not only dangerous but also negatively affects the plant's growth cycle, killing large portions of the crop and leaving bacterial residue on the plants and facilities. This reduces the growth and the ultimate yield. The problem is that there is no real non-toxic solution to eliminate mold and fungal growth in grow facilities. ETI has the only real, effective, non-toxic solution to cleaning and sanitizing plant facilities."
Randall Waters, ETI's VP of Sales & Marketing said, "We are all focused and dedicated to addressing these growing market opportunities in the CBD, hemp and cannabis industries."
Also embracing the cannabis/technology connection are larger Canadian producers like Aphria Inc. (TSX: APHA.TO) (NYSE: APHA), who recently entered into an exclusive agreement with Toronto-based UNOapp Inc. to collaborate on the development of technology and analytics solutions for Canada's adult-use cannabis industry.
"With our innovation-focused approach, Aphria is setting the pace for the evolution of the adult-use cannabis industry in Canada," said Jakob Ripshtein, President of Aphria. "Our industry's long-term future will be driven by consumer-centric, innovation-led product, brand and technology solutions. We are excited for this collaboration with a fantastic technology partner in UNOapp and look forward to developing industry-leading solutions that shape the adult-use cannabis market for years to come."
Founded in 2010, UNOapp has developed proven technology, marketing and analytical solutions that has enabled more than 4,500 customers across the globe to engage with their customers and drive revenue.
WeedMD Inc. (TSX-V: WMD) (OTC:WDDMF), a federally-licensed producer and distributor of medical-grade cannabis is also looking at tech partnerships as they recently announced, that with BLOCKSTRAIN TECHNOLOGY CORP., they have completed the 'first-of-its-kind' cannabis strain validation registration program - a testing and verification process that will confirm cannabis strains as purchased.
Strain validation will play an important role as cannabis products advance through the medical, pharmaceutical and retail channels. Following the collection and registration of plant DNA from its Aylmer, Ontario facility in October 2018, WeedMD becomes the first licensed producer in the world to incorporate a cannabis strains authenticity and tracking platform into its sales program.
One of the best things coming out of this rapid growth industry has been the need for innovation and it seems cannabis and technology will move forward hand-in-hand.

Today's podcast overview/transcript:
Good afternoon and welcome to another Investorideas.com "potcast", looking at cannabis news, stocks to watch as well as insights from thought leaders and experts.
Today we are looking at announcements from CROP INFRASTRUCTURE CORP. (CSE: CROP) (OTC:CRXPF), Dixie Brands Inc. (CSE: DIXI.U), Khiron Life Sciences Corp. (TSXV: KHRN), (OTCQB: KHRNF), High Tide Inc. (CSE:HITI) and Lifestyle Delivery Systems Inc. (CSE: LDS), (OTCQX: LDSYF)
CROP INFRASTRUCTURE CORP. announced today it has made two strategic hires to head up its genetics lab and ready the company for its 2019 CBD production season. The new division will also be developing high grade CBG and CBN genetics for the company's farms.
Patrick McLoughlin has been appointed as Director of the newly-created Division of Micropropagation and Genetics at CROP Corp. and Zachary Lindskoog as Production Manager.
CROP CEO, Michael Yorke, stated: "These are key hires at CROP's 49% owned CBD farm where advanced propagation techniques will bring costs down significantly for the 500,000-pound per year supply agreement and the estimated 3,000,000 lbs of 2019 production, as well as benefit our expansion plans overall."
Dixie Brands Inc. one of the cannabis industry's leading consumer packaged goods companies, and Khiron Life Sciences Corp., a vertically integrated medical cannabis company focused on Latin America , have signed a binding letter of intent to establish a 50/50 joint venture to introduce a full line of cannabis-infused products to the Latin American market. Dixie will also manufacture and distribute Khiron's Kuida® brand of cannabidiol (CBD)-based cosmeceuticals in the United States, targeting the growing Hispanic population. Completion of the JV is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval.
By combining Dixie's market-ready portfolio of cannabis-infused products with Khiron's established footprint throughout Latin America, the companies aim to capture first-mover advantage and establish leadership in one of the world's fastest-growing cannabis markets. The agreement also creates a framework for the development of new products and brands tailored to Latin America, allowing Dixie and Khiron to take full advantage of opportunities resulting from cannabis legalization throughout the region.
Alvaro Torres, Co-founder and CEO of Khiron Life Sciences, stated, "This joint venture is a combination of two companies coming together to bring great brands with highly complementary products, distribution capabilities and expertise. The joint venture gives us important access to expand the reach of our Kuida® cosmeceutical brand into the U.S. market, and by introducing a proven set of product formulations, we can more effectively leverage the infrastructure and relationships we are putting in place across Latin America."
High Tide Inc., an Alberta-based downstream cannabis corporation focused on the manufacturing and wholesale distribution of smoking accessories and cannabis lifestyle products, today announced that it recently signed letters of intent to acquire two cannabis retail locations in Saskatchewan from two separate vendors. Subject to regulatory approval, the Locations will be strategically situated in different cities with distinct customer bases, which will enable both urban and rural cannabis consumers to develop a relationship with the Canna Cabana brand. Entering Saskatchewan will also provide High Tide with the unique opportunity in Canada to sell recreational cannabis online as a private retailer, which leverages the in-depth e-commerce experience gained from its Grasscity and Smoker's Corner businesses. High Tide expects each transaction to be closed by the end of February and it continues to pursue additional acquisition opportunities in the province.
The Saskatchewan market provides a compelling growth opportunity for High Tide due to the limited number of 51 retail cannabis permits granted by the Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming Authority ("SLGA"). "Acquiring two retail cannabis stores in Saskatchewan will allow us to expand our Canna Cabana brand and apply our product expertise and customer knowledge to a new Canadian market," said Raj Grover, President and Chief Executive Officer of High Tide. "We are also in the process of establishing a wholesale business named Kush West Distribution, subject to SLGA approval, to serve retailers across Saskatchewan as part of our strategy to be vertically-integrated wherever possible. Accordingly, we have entered into a conditional lease for a warehouse in Regina approximately 10,000 square feet in size," added Mr. Grover.
Lifestyle Delivery Systems Inc. announced that CSPA Group Inc.'s partnership with Rise Distribution ("Rise") is rapidly gaining momentum. Within the first week of receiving the Rêveur live resin products Rise has delivered Rêveur to the seven new California dispensaries.
The distribution agreement with Rise provides the Company with a direct access to Rise's extensive state-wide retail network. Since entering into the distribution agreement, both companies have been working closely on creating and implementing highly efficient sales channels that will ensure rapid product distribution. Additionally, CSPA provided detailed product training to Rise's sales and product consultants ensuring a positive customer experience.

Smaller technology companies like EnviroTechnologies International, Inc. (OTC: ETII), which develops and markets green, natural and organic products for diverse industries, confirmed that it is preparing to introduce new technology to licensed cannabis growers in the northwest that will help eliminate growth-impeding pathogens and stimulate harvest yields.
"What hasn't been covered as much is the potential and existence of fungal and contaminants that are prevalent in nearly all phases of plant growth, harvest, and post-harvest product processing of hemp and cannabis," said Gaylord Karren, ETI's President. "Mold and fungal presence in grow rooms, as well as outside grow facilities is not only dangerous but also negatively affects the plant's growth cycle, killing large portions of the crop and leaving bacterial residue on the plants and facilities. This reduces the growth and the ultimate yield. The problem is that there is no real non-toxic solution to eliminate mold and fungal growth in grow facilities. ETI has the only real, effective, non-toxic solution to cleaning and sanitizing plant facilities."
Randall Waters, ETI's VP of Sales & Marketing said, "We are all focused and dedicated to addressing these growing market opportunities in the CBD, hemp and cannabis industries."
Also embracing the cannabis/technology connection are larger Canadian producers like Aphria Inc. (TSX: APHA.TO) (NYSE: APHA), who recently entered into an exclusive agreement with Toronto-based UNOapp Inc. to collaborate on the development of technology and analytics solutions for Canada's adult-use cannabis industry.
"With our innovation-focused approach, Aphria is setting the pace for the evolution of the adult-use cannabis industry in Canada," said Jakob Ripshtein, President of Aphria. "Our industry's long-term future will be driven by consumer-centric, innovation-led product, brand and technology solutions. We are excited for this collaboration with a fantastic technology partner in UNOapp and look forward to developing industry-leading solutions that shape the adult-use cannabis market for years to come."
Founded in 2010, UNOapp has developed proven technology, marketing and analytical solutions that has enabled more than 4,500 customers across the globe to engage with their customers and drive revenue.
WeedMD Inc. (TSX-V: WMD) (OTC:WDDMF), a federally-licensed producer and distributor of medical-grade cannabis is also looking at tech partnerships as they recently announced, that with BLOCKSTRAIN TECHNOLOGY CORP., they have completed the 'first-of-its-kind' cannabis strain validation registration program - a testing and verification process that will confirm cannabis strains as purchased.
Strain validation will play an important role as cannabis products advance through the medical, pharmaceutical and retail channels. Following the collection and registration of plant DNA from its Aylmer, Ontario facility in October 2018, WeedMD becomes the first licensed producer in the world to incorporate a cannabis strains authenticity and tracking platform into its sales program.
One of the best things coming out of this rapid growth industry has been the need for innovation and it seems cannabis and technology will move forward hand-in-hand.
