Organigram nearing cannabis distribution with all Canadian provinces

Organigram Holdings Inc.’s wholly owned subsidiary, Organigram Inc., has signed a letter of intent (LOI) with the Société québécoise du cannabis (SQDC) that, if approved, will mean the company has distribution in place with all 10 provinces in the country.

 

 

“The final agreement and first shipping date are subject to completion of the Autorité des Marchés Publics process,” notes a statement from Organigram Holdings Inc.

Solidifying Organigram’s position as a national player in Canada’s legal, adult-use recreational cannabis marketplace, the company enters a small group thought to consist of just three licensed producers (LP) that have secured distribution agreements with every province.

“Quebec is an important part of Organigram’s national strategy. The company will offer consumers in the province access to a portfolio of products, which will include mainstream, value and premium flower, along with an assortment of pre-rolls and oils,” reports Organigram, an LP of cannabis and cannabis-derived products in Canada that is also developing international business partnerships to extend its global footprint.

 

 

“We are pleased to work with the SQDC and deliver products that will be needed to meet the demand of its customers,” says Tim Emberg, Organigram’s senior vice president of sales and commercial operations.

“We are proud to work with our partners across the country to help ensure Canadians have access to a reliable supply of premium cannabis products for both medical and adult recreational use,” notes Greg Engel, CEO of Organigram. “We look forward to continuing to build on these relationships as we look ahead to the legalization of cannabis edibles,” Engel adds.
