Heritage Cannabis announces a two-year definitive agreement with leading Alberta brand, Violet Tourist

The partnership represents Heritage’s further commitment to penetrating the dried flower, pre-roll and infused pre-roll segments in Canada.

Heritage Cannabis Holdings Corp. (CSE: CANN) (OTCQX: HERTF) (“Heritage of the “Company”), is pleased to announce it has signed a definitive white label agreement (the “Agreement”) with BRNT Ltd. (“BRNT”), an Alberta based brand house and cannabis ancillary company that launched the top performing dried flower and pre-roll Alberta brand, Violet Tourist.

Under the Agreement, the Company will work with BRNT to immediately launch Violet Tourist branded cannabis 2.0 infused pre-roll in Alberta. Over the course of the agreement, Heritage will aim to expand distribution of the brand across Canada and further add to its associated SKU listings in both the cannabis 1.0 and 2.0 segments. Terms of the agreement provide Heritage with control of procurement & supply chain and effectively grants Heritage rights to fully operate the proven Alberta brand.

BRNT and Heritage are also exploring a commercial agreement to launch a RAD and Pura Vida branded Hexagon bong, which will be available to consumers in both Canada and the United States. BRNT’s patent protected ceramic Hexagon bong was recently featured in Rolling Stone magazine as one of its Best Bongs of 2021.

BRNT CEO, Gage Gorda said, “During 2020, BRNT commenced with a process to identify a new partner for our Violet Tourist branded products. We had serious inquiries from numerous LP’s in the Country, including some of the largest, but none came close to the product offering capabilities, speed to market, depth of relationships with provincial buyers and most of all internal culture and leadership than Heritage.”

BRNT launched Violet Tourist branded products in Alberta during December of 2020 and per Headset data, up to the end of September 2021 have generated over $2.5 million of wholesale revenue attributed to the brand. Further Headset data indicated that at the end of August 2021, Violet Tourist was the #4 brand in the Alberta pre-roll segment (a category that commands approx. 26% of the overall cannabis market in Alberta) and held 4% of overall retail sales in the province since its launch in December 2020.

“We are thrilled to have executed this Agreement with BRNT as it provides us with control of a brand in Alberta that has proven its ability to capture market in Canada’s second largest market by revenue. Without a cash outlay or issuance of Heritage shares, we secure exclusive cannabis 2.0 rights to Violet Tourist branded products in Alberta and retain control to expand distribution of the brand across the Country and into cannabis 1.0 formats over the duration of the Agreement,” said David Schwede, CEO of Heritage.
