Delta 9 Increases Production of Cannabis Pre-Rolls, Secures Funding Support from Manitoba Agriculture
09 Março 2023 - 8:00PM
DELTA 9 CANNABIS INC. (TSX:DN) (OTCQX:DLTNF) (“Delta 9” or the
“Company”) is pleased to announce that it has completed the
installation and implementation of its new fully-automated pre-roll
manufacturing equipment at the Company’s Winnipeg, Manitoba
facilities, significantly increasing the Company’s capacity to
manufacture pre-rolled cannabis products. The Company is also
pleased to announce that the pre-roll automation project has been
funded in partnership with the Canadian Agricultural Partnership AG
Action Manitoba program, through a Contribution Agreement for
$175,000, or 25% of the overall project cost.
“The expansion in pre-roll manufacturing
capacity marks a significant milestone for Delta 9. In 2022 we
produced and sold over 1 million cannabis pre-rolls, generating
over $2.3 million in revenue,” said John Arbuthnot, CEO of Delta 9.
“We anticipate that the new automated pre-roll equipment will allow
Delta 9 to produce up to four million pre-rolls per year with
significantly lower manufacturing costs and improved contribution
margins from the sale of pre-roll products. We want to thank the
Government of Manitoba for their partnership in this investment
through the AG Action Manitoba program.”
The Company plans to add multiple strain
specific and innovative cannabis pre-roll products to its portfolio
in 2023 and views the pre-roll segment as a key growth driver for
the Company’s wholesale cannabis business.
The Canadian Agricultural Partnership is a
bilateral agreement between the Government of Canada and the
Government of Manitoba which oversees the AG Action Manitoba
program (the “Program”). The Program funds investments in the
Manitoba agriculture sector with a directive to enhance the
diversification, competitiveness, and sustainability of the
agriculture, agri-food, and agri-product sector by accelerating the
pace of innovation in the Province of Manitoba.
