The relationship is based on several discussions between the groups on product portfolio, strategic direction, quality and branding. A selection of brands, featuring Organigram’s 2017 Canadian Cannabis Award-winning sativa Wabanaki, will be chosen to play a role in Tokyo Smoke’s retail plans within the Manitoba market.
Hiku is excited to have the opportunity to carry Organigram’s products in Tokyo Smoke stores. This agreement will help ensure additional quality indoor-grown cannabis is available to the adult-use consumer in the province of Manitoba, where Tokyo Smoke was awarded one of only four conditional master licenses for recreational store fronts allowing us to open multiple store fronts across the province.
