Recognition of leadership position within both the food & beverage and cannabis product categories a validation of the Company's comprehensive sector strategy
BevCanna Enterprises Inc. ( CSE:BEV , Q:BVNNF , FSE:7BC ) ("BevCanna" or the "Company"), an innovative health and wellness beverages and products company, today announced that it has been named one of the 101 Top Food and Beverage Startups and Companies in Canada by Best Startup Canada, a media company that focuses on the latest innovations, breakthroughs and greatest companies across Canada.
Ranging from cutting-edge startups to established brands within the food and beverage industry, the companies recognized on the Top 101 list are known for innovation within their sector, as well as exceptional growth and societal impact. BevCanna was within the group of selected companies that exhibited exceptional performance. A full list of recipients can be found here.
BevCanna was also included within the list of the Top 101 Cannabis Startups and Companies in Canada, a list of innovators and growth companies within the Canadian cannabis industry.
"It's both an honour and a reflection of the BevCanna team's expertise and dedication, to be included within the sphere of other premier Canadian food and beverage companies, including Ritual, Goodfood, Flow Water, Chef's Plate and David's Tea," noted Marcello Leone, CEO of BevCanna. "This recognition of our leadership position within both the food and beverage and the cannabis products categories validates our strategy of developing innovative, highly-customized beverage products that appeal to a range of target markets, including value, craft and premium positioning, for both our in-house brands and our white-label clients."
BevCanna's most recent launch, of the award-winning Keef Brands line of cannabis-infused beverages into British Columbia and Ontario, quickly sold out online, prompting an immediate re-stocking of all varieties in those markets and imminent launch into the Alberta market. The Company also recently announced a number of agreements to develop and manufacture white-label cannabis-infused products for leading brands, including The Tinley Beverage Company Inc., Xebra Brands Ltd, and Averi Health Products.
The Company also announced today that it has appointed Howard Blank and Douglas Mason as members of the Audit Committee resulting from their respective appointments as directors at the annual general and special meeting of the shareholders on November 24, 2021. The Audit Committee is now comprised of John Campbell (Chair), Howard Blank and Douglas Mason. For additional information on the new members of the Audit Committee, please refer to the Company's Information Circular dated October 25, 2021 and filed on the Company's page on www.SEDAR.com on October 28, 2021.
