Aphria to Supply Shoppers Drug Mart with Medical Cannabis

Aphria enters into supplier agreement with Shoppers Drug Mart

Conference call December 4, 2017 at 5:30 pm ET

LEAMINGTON, ON, Dec. 4, 2017 /CNW/ – Aphria Inc. (“Aphria” or the “Company”) (TSX: APH and US OTC: APHQF) today announced that it has entered into an agreement to become a medical cannabis supplier to Shoppers Drug Mart.

Subject to Health Canada’s approval of Shoppers Drug Mart’s application to be a licensed producer, under the terms of the agreement the Company will supply Shoppers Drug Mart with Aphria-branded medical cannabis products. It is expected the products will be sold online, as Canadian regulations currently restrict the sale of medical cannabis in retail pharmacies.

We have an impeccable record cultivating and producing high-quality, medical-grade cannabis . These traits make us a strong partner for an organization looking to serve and support Canadian patients.

Vic Neufeld, CEO of Aphria
