Designed to provide a transparent and sustainable path to market, Maven's partner-focused program plans to unleash the potential of craft micro-cultivators in Canada
Vernon, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 9, 2021) - Maven Brands Inc. (CSE: MJ) (OTC Pink: TRLFF) (FSE: TLA) ("Maven" or the "Company") has launched a DealMaker crowdfunding campaign using the offering memorandum exemption, for its innovative partner-focused craft cannabis processing facility and program. This campaign is part of the offering announced in the Company's press release issued on November 3, 2021 (the "Offering"). Under the terms of the Offering, the Company will offer for sale up to a maximum of 8,333,334 units at $0.18 per unit to raise up to CAD $1.5 million. The minimum investment is $1,000.
Maven believes its program is unique by offering B.C. micro-cultivators a partnership-focused approach to processing and distributing their craft cannabis products. Operating from the Company's 19,500 square foot facility in Lumby, B.C., the program plans to provide quality assurance, on-site microbial remediation, dry flower packaging, and national distribution support. At launch, the program will increase processing capacity in the province and help alleviate the bottlenecks small producers currently face in the industry.
"Maven is providing the craft cannabis community and the general public with an opportunity to join us as we prepare to disrupt the craft cannabis processing sector," said Maven CEO Darcy Bomford. "This is an opportunity to invest in a much-needed capacity-building project which will provide services to one of the fastest-growing segments in the federal licensing system: micro-cultivators."
"Our crowdfunding campaign very much aligns with the spirit of our innovative partner-focused model, which reduces barriers for small-scale producers and provides a better path to market for craft cannabis," said Andrew Gordon, VP of Strategic Growth. "Like our program, crowdfunding also reduces barriers. Now anyone from cannabis enthusiasts to the producers themselves can invest in Maven."
Maven anticipates utilizing the net proceeds of the Offering to complete work for the launch of the Company's craft cannabis processing program, including the installation of packaging lines and microbial remediation equipment, purchasing craft cannabis flower inputs for product development, and general corporate purposes.
