CALGARY, Alberta, Aug. 24, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sugarbud Craft Growers Corp. (TSXV: SUGR, SUGR.WT, SUGR.WS, SUGR.DB) (“Sugarbud“) is pleased to announce it has received approval from Health Canada for its amended sales license (the “Sales License”) permitting the sale of dried cannabis products. Sugarbud is now able to directly sell its portfolio of exceptional craft cannabis products to all authorized provincial and territorial distributors/retailers as well as registered medical patients.  

“Today’s announcement represents yet another pivotal milestone for Sugarbud as we continue to scale up our commercial activities and build overall shareholder value for the Company,” stated Sugarbud CEO, John Kondrosky. “Our amended Sales License now gives us the ability to take direct control of our own sales and marketing activities and further accelerate and expand the distribution of our core Craft Cannabis Dried Flower and Pre-Roll products into new target provinces – such as Alberta and British Columbia,” continued Mr. Kondrosky.

The Company estimates that less than 30% of all active federally approved license holders possess a sales license permitting the sale of dried cannabis to authorized provincial and territorial distributors/retailers as well as registered medical patients. “Receipt of our amended Sales License is significant and was the result of a successful comprehensive inspection process. It is a testament to our day-to-day operational readiness and unwavering commitment to compliance as much as it is to the hard work, dedication and passion that our employees continue to demonstrate each and every day,” concluded Mr. Kondrosky.

Sugarbud products are currently available in the province of Saskatchewan under the terms and conditions of the previously announced licensing and distribution agreement with Agro-Greens Natural Products Ltd.
