Supply Will Be Grown by Hiku’s DOJA facility in Kelowna, B.C.
TORONTO, July 12, 2018 /CNW/ – Hiku Brands Company Ltd. (CSE: HIKU) (“Hiku” or the “Company”) has completed a supply agreement with the British Columbia Liquor Distribution Branch (BCLDB) to supply cannabis for the adult use market once legalization takes place in October, 2018.
At DOJA, we believe that we cultivate exceptional hand-crafted cannabis to help people find their balance and actualize personal freedom. We are committed to minimizing our impact on nature with an eye towards natural, sustainable and innovative growing principles. We are West Coast Contemporaries.
Trent Kitsch, President of Hiku and Co-Founder of DOJA.
Grown in one of Canada’s premier wine regions, Hiku’s Okanagan Valley cannabis brand is truly inspired by nature from the ground up. DOJA is focused on producing top-quality, indoor grown cannabis to serve the adult market in Canada. Management believes its small capacity and craft cannabis production will find a premium place with Canada’s active and healthy lifestyle communities.
The execution of this agreement is a great milestone for us at Hiku as British Columbia has long been home to a robust cannabis community, and home to our DOJA grow facility. We are very excited to be able to offer our products to such a great market.
Alan Gertner, Chief Executive Officer of Hiku
This agreement is in addition to a previously announced supply agreement in Manitoba and in addition to Tokyo Smoke, Hiku’s award winning retail brand, being granted one of only four master licenses in that province. Hiku has also applied to open storefronts in other jurisdictions across Canada.
