OAKVILLE, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Dec. 5, 2016) - Canadian Cannabis Corp ("CCAN" (OTC PINK:CCAN), or
the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has signed a Letter of Intent ("LOI") with Tree of Knowledge Inc., ("EVRCBD" https://evrcbd.com/) a vertically integrated producer and distributor of hemp based Cannabidiol ("CBD") products, located in Spokane, Washington. As contemplated by the LOI, EVRCBD will merge with and become a wholly owned subsidiary of CCAN. The merger is expected to be completed subsequent to the completion of a definitive agreement and plan of merger.
CBD is a natural constituent of oil that is extracted from a hemp plant and is one of hemp's many non-psychoactive compounds. While Hemp also contains many other cannabinoids, CBD is the most predominant in the plant's biological makeup. CBD that is derived from hemp is legal in all 50 states and more than 40 countries.
"This is an ideal movement for our company into the US Market," said Scott Keevil, CEO of CCAN. "Their products and professionalism are well respected throughout the industry, with existing sales to customers in all 50 states as well as in Europe and South America. We feel there are significant synergies to be gained with our distribution channels in Canada, not limited to our wholly owned subsidiary, The Clinic Network."
Brian Main, CEO of EVRCBD added, "In this new and fast paced industry, the race to new markets means aligning with others who understand the importance and the dangers of rapid expansion. Our next phase for expansion is joining with CCAN to break into new high value markets. CCAN understands the power of the multiple; we will look to this next phase of our business as a step in the right direction for our growth & revenue streams."
