"We're thrilled to welcome Hansen Industries and Dihl Grohs International to our HydroGreen Certified Dealer Network," said Dan Schmidt, President, HydroGreen. "We are working directly with these experienced agriculture consultants to deliver, install, and support farmers with our latest on farm ag-tech."
Hansen Industries ("Hansen") and Dihl Grohs International ("DGI") signed non-binding letters of intent ("LOIs") to become official members of the HydroGreen Certified Dealer Network selling the HydroGreen Grow System indoor growing technologies to their customers.
In aggregate, Hansen and DGI have committed to an initial 30 HydroGreen Grow System modules under contract by the end of 2022, to be installed once the Farmer Partners have confirmed site readiness. This initial tranche of committals for 2022 will provide a minimum value of CAD$7.5 million for the Company.
On May 17, 2021, the Company announced the sale of 12 HydroGreen Grow System modules purchased by wholesale distributor DGI for beef cattle customers who require on farm fresh livestock feed for their herds. Now, as a HydroGreen Certified Dealer, DGI has increased their sales commitments with an additional 12 modules. HydroGreen technology customer Michael Rigby, owner of Rigby Cattle Co. in Utah, will be installing a second HydroGreen Grow System since experiencing the significant animal performance improvements and on farm nutrition benefits of this unique fresh livestock feed.
On October 5, 2021, Total Dairy Solutions and Settje Agri Services & Engineering Inc. joined the HydroGreen Certified Dealer Network. With the addition of Hansen and DGI, the Company has initial dealer sales commitments for over 80 modules of the HydroGreen Grow System in 2022, with revenue recognized once installations are complete.
"Respected and experienced on farm agriculture consultants like Hansen and DGI are equipped to understand the needs of farmers and deliver indoor growing solutions for their customers," said Dave Dinesen, Chief Executive Officer, CubicFarms.

Adding new members to our HydroGreen Certified Dealer Network is part of our go to market strategy as we continue this growth and expansion phase of the business."
