business divisions.
As director of wholesale at Gucci International, Robert conceptualized and launched the popular "store within a store" marketing

leading-edge O.pen-VAPE device, one of the most recognized cannabis brands in the USA, followed by other products including Bakked,
Craft Reserve, Magic Buzz, District Edibles and Pressies. Organa Brands products are available in 10 US states, Canada, and
Jamaica, with the company selling one of its products every 4 seconds.

States. We are excited to have acquired Robert's services. His comprehensive understanding of cannabis product development,
