TORONTO, June 7, 2019 /CNW/ - The Supreme Cannabis Company, Inc. ("Supreme Cannabis" or the "Company") (TSX: FIRE) (OTCQX: SPRWF) (FRA: 53S1), today announced it has entered into an agreement with Pax Labs, Inc. ("PAX"), to become a foundational brand partner and supplier for the PAX Era in Canada, pending the federal legalization of the vaporizable products.
PAX and Supreme Cannabis come together to enter Canada's attractive vaporizer market with two of the most proven brands in their respective categories. Through this partnership, Supreme Cannabis' wholly-owned subsidiary, 7ACRES, becomes one of only four licensed producers chosen as initial partners to create cannabis oil pods for the PAX Era. PAX is a market leader with over 1.5 million devices sold worldwide and an established reputation as the best-selling pen-and-pod system in the U.S. Supreme Cannabis' partnership with PAX will accelerate the growth of the Company's vaporizable product category, where Supreme Cannabis' proven brand-building ability and high-quality flower offer a distinct market advantage.
"Supreme Cannabis is excited to be partnering with PAX to provide consumers with the ultimate vaporizing experience. Together, we expect to deliver 7ACRES' multi-award winning flower extracted into oils exclusively for use in North America's best-selling premium vaporizer, the PAX Era," said Navdeep Dhaliwal, CEO of Supreme Cannabis. "7ACRES has established itself as the leading Canadian brand for high-end cannabis flower at scale, and as we extend our brand into newly available product categories, we are committed to maintaining the same level of quality our discerning consumer has come to expect. As our brand portfolio grows, we look forward to working with PAX to deliver additional premium brand experiences onto the PAX Era platform."
Under the terms of the agreement, 7ACRES-branded vaporizer oil will be sold exclusively in Era-compatible pods. Supreme Cannabis may also create pods for the Pax Era under different brands. The Company anticipates selling 7ACRES-branded Era Pods coast-to-coast in every jurisdiction where Supreme Cannabis has provincial supply agreements.
In addition to PAX's agreement with Supreme Cannabis, PAX also signed supply agreements with Aurora Cannabis Inc. (NYSE: ACB), Aphria Inc. (TSX: APHA) (NYSE: APHA), (TSX: ACB), and Organigram Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: OGI).
