Alliance Growers Updates Strategic Investment in Canna Companion

January 27, 2017 – Vancouver, B.C. – Alliance Growers Corp. (CSE:ACG) is pleased to provide an update on the Company’s planned equity investment to finance Canna Companion Products, Inc. (“Canna”). Canna is a wholly owned subsidiary of WFS PharmaGreen Inc. (“Pharmagreen”) that produces and sells whole-plant hemp pet supplements. Canna, a Washington State incorporated company, is the manufacturing, fulfillment and sales centre for the Canna products.  For further information, see www.cannacompanionusa.com.
Further to an announcement dated November 15, 2016, Alliance Grower’s strategic investment in Canna Companion is via its parent, Pharmagreen. The arrangement calls for Alliance Growers to invest CAD$300,000 on favourable financial terms with regard to pricing and warrants, in return for an exclusive long term (“Cannabinoid”) CBD oil supply contract when Canna expands to the Canadian market, planned for later 2017.
Commenting on the equity investment, Dennis Petke, Alliance Growers President and CEO said, “The opportunity for Alliance Growers to make this strategic investment in Canna provides two great benefits. First is the investment opportunity.  Canna has already shown tremendous success in the lucrative cannabis pet product market and is poised for spectacular growth. The second is the Agreement giving Alliance Growers the exclusive CBD oil supply contract from Canna in Canada.”
Pharmagreen is currently a private company incorporated under the business act of British Columbia.  The company is in the process of making application for a listing on the OTCBB-QB as a reporting filer.  Pharmagreen’s management is targeting to have this process completed during 2017.
Pharmagreen owns the worldwide rights to its cannabis science based proprietary supplement formulation geared towards pets and animals, licensed to Canna.  Their formulation was based on over fifteen years of research and development by two Doctorates of Veterinary Medicine.  These two DMV’s form part of the management and research and development teams.  The formulation and products are veterinary formulated and veterinarian approved.
Since the official sales launch of the Canna products for cats and dogs on February 1, 2016, monthly net sales reached the US$100,000 milestone for the month of November, 2016, with Canna net sales of approximately US$941,500 for the 11 month period ending December 31 2016. Also, Canna Companion is currently conducting research and development of whole-plant hemp based products for the animal world.
