"Now, at just three months old, ABcann has raised $43 million in cash, allowing it to quickly execute its expansion strategy
and business model. A significant aspect of this strategy -- aside from its advanced growing technology -- is land ownership. To
this accord, ABcann owns 65 acres of land in Napanee and, with its recent financing (http://nnw.fm/aVAL7)
from Cannabis Wheaton, is set to expand at an unprecedented rate in the Canadian cannabis industry.
"An additional $15 million investment by Cannabis Wheaton, recognized as one of the biggest cannabis company in the world,
will support a second production facility, aside from ABcann's plans to build a 100,000-square-foot complex. The $30 million
financing agreement demonstrates ABcann's potential for growth, as Cannabis Wheaten invests in and partners with promising
cannabis companies to help them leverage their diversity and expertise to fulfil its streaming goals. This strategy helps reduce
the impact of licensing and build-out delays, cultivation challenges, and issues with access by clinics, pharmacies, and
government purchasing agencies. Importantly, it has its own methods of boosting yield in the industry."
About ABcann Global Corporation
ABcann was one of the first companies to obtain a production license under the Marijuana for Medical Purposes Regulations,
which it received on March 21, 2014. It obtained a sales license on December 31, 2015. ABcann's flagship facility, in Napanee,
Ontario, contains proprietary plant-growing technology, including environmentally-controlled chambers capable of monitoring and
regulating all variables in the growing process. This approach and the systems in place allow ABcann to produce organically grown
and pesticide-free, high-yielding plants, which, in turn, can generate high-quality products that are consistent from batch to
batch. ABcann is able to control environmental and nutrient demands, tailor-made for a particular strain of cannabis, without the
variation that is typical when producing large quantities in less-controlled, larger rooms and greenhouse-type structures.
ABcann's modular approach to systems technology eliminates scale-up risk and allows ABcann to locate anywhere in the world and
maintain consistency and quality of product.
