REPEAT/Cannabis Wheaton Features Partner Curative Cannabis
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Jun 20, 2017) - Cannabis Wheaton Income Corp. (TSX VENTURE:CBW)
("Cannabis Wheaton", "CW", or the "Company") is pleased to feature its partner 2368523 Ontario
Limited (d/b/a Curative Cannabis) ("Curative"). Curative has applied to become a licensed producer pursuant to
the Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations ("ACMPR") with its proposed facility in
Chatham-Kent, Ontario (the "Facility").
Curative's Facility will be purpose built for cannabis cultivation and has been designed by the expert team from Cascadia AC.
Cascadia has emerged as one of the leading design and build firms in the Canadian cannabis industry and has worked on several
ACMPR facilities across Canada, including leading the design and build out of the environmental control systems at Broken Coast's
facility in British Columbia. The Facility is anticipated to have an initial footprint of 21,000 sq. ft. However, Curative owns
an option to purchase the neighboring 33.09 acres of land thereby allowing Curative the option to expand its Facility up to
800,000 sq. ft., subject to market demand and regulatory approval.
Apart from the strength of the Facility and the ease with which it can be expanded, Curative also enjoys other competitive
advantages.
- Curative has developed a strong relationship with the municipality of Chatman-Kent and Curative's principals have assisted
the municipality in developing site specific policies regarding cannabis production and related zoning matters.
- Curative's principals have long standing relationships and significant experience in the regulated cannabis industry
through their work in patient education and outreach, cannabis breeding and cultivation consultation, as well as branding and
white labeling. They have worked in collaboration with many licensed producers in optimizing cultivation techniques and
improving patient outreach.
- Curative has an extensive library of cannabis genetics, all of which were transferred to several licensed producers during
the transition phase of the Marihuana for Medical Purposes Regulations. These are highly sought after cannabis
genetics which have been standardized and validated within the regulated environment of the ACMPR.
Chuck Rifici, Chairman and CEO of Cannabis Wheaton noted, "We are very excited to work with the talented team from Curative
Cannabis. They are some of the most knowledgeable and innovative cannabis entrepreneurs in the industry. We consider Curative to
be a strong strategic partner with great leadership and excellent potential for further expansion. Curative brings valuable
expertise to our platform that we believe will ultimately benefit Cannabis Wheaton and all of our streaming partners".
Ian Rapsey, Chief Creative Officer of Cannabis Wheaton commented, "I am looking forward to collaborating with industry
pioneers such as Curative's management team. They have successfully created brands and patient outreach programs and we want to
help them leverage that experience to build Curative into a top-tier licensed producer with incredible brand awareness and value
for the industry".
