VANCOUVER, July 24, 2018 /CNW/ - Liberty Leaf Holdings Ltd.
(CSE: LIB) (OTCQB: LIBFF) (FSE: HN3P) (the "Company) is pleased to announce the launch of its cannabis retail
division.
Signature Cannabis Retail Ltd. ("Signature Cannabis") is the retail channel and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty Leaf, with an operational network slated to include flagship stores, as well as corporate-owned
satellite stores, partner operations and online dealer-support networks.
Starting in B.C., the plan is to serve as many communities across Canada as possible. The
corporate-owned flagship stores would each range in size from approximately 1,500-2,500 square feet, while partner locations
would each be approximately 500-1,000 square feet.
The enterprise is intended to capitalize on the legalization of recreational cannabis across the country. Canadians spent an
estimated $5.7 billion on cannabis last year, according to Statistics Canada.
"Once in a generation, an opportunity this remarkable presents itself," said Will Rascan,
President & CEO of Liberty Leaf.
The Next Phase of Liberty Leaf's Vertically Integrated Operation
The launch of Signature Cannabis serves as the next phase of Liberty Leaf's vertically
integrated seed-to-sale business model and operation.
"Between our Just Kush [cultivation] and North Road [distribution], and our active partnerships
with companies such as ESEV [CBD pet research] and BLOX Labs [Blockchain software solutions], this new Signature Cannabis retail
operation is yet another piece of our strategic vertical business model. We are very excited to be launching this new retail
brand," Rascan explained.
Initiatives currently underway include finalizing the retail business strategy, hiring a seasoned Operations Manager and
securing multiple retail locations.
"Signature Cannabis retail stores are a brand representing far more than simply a purveyor of high-quality cannabis products,"
Rascan said. "The brand is the reflection of our highest values, which appeal to the aspirations and preferences of our
customers."
According to Rascan, these values include an approach that is forward-looking, socially responsible, welcoming, relaxed and
reliable.
