Maple Leaf Green World Inc. (“Maple Leaf” or the “Company”)(TSXV:MGW; OTCQB:MGWFF) is pleased to provide the following update on its Nevada and California medical cannabis operations.
Nevada
The Company through its Nevada subsidiary, SSGW LLC (“SSGW”), has completed the purchase of all of the ownership interests in BioNeva Innovations of Henderson LLC (“BioNeva”) and all of the ownership interest in the Nevada Medical Marijuana Registration Certificate C115. In accordance with the terms of the transaction, the previous holders of the ownership interest of BioNeva assigned their interest to Mr. Daniel Larkin, a newly appointed director of Maple Leaf as per below, who in turn will transfer one hundred percent of the ownership interest and related licenses to SSGW in accordance with the terms of a Confession of Judgment. BioNeva previously obtained conditional approvals for obtaining a Medical Marijuana Establishment – Cultivation Facility – Class V (Cultivation) business license (the “Cultivation License”) in the City of Henderson, Nevada. Maple Leaf, through its Nevada subsidiary, SSGW, has now acquired its first existing cannabis cultivation permit.
BioNeva previously received conditional approvals from the City of Henderson to transfer the Cultivation License from its previous location at 585 North Gibson Road, Henderson, Nevada 89011 to the Company’s newly acquired property located on four (4) acres of industrial land, located at 2000 Burns Road, Henderson, Nevada 89011 (the “Proposed Site”). SSGW is currently applying for the building permit from the City of Henderson. Upon receipt of the building permit from the City of Henderson, SSGW will begin the process of construction on the Proposed Site, which is to be a 20,000 sq. ft. facility. The Company expects to speed up the construction by utilizing the same efficient structural insulated panel technology to be employed at the Company’s proposed Canadian cannabis cultivation facility located in Telkwa, British Columbia, Canada, which is currently under construction. Maple Leaf anticipates the Proposed Site in the City of Henderson, Nevada to be completed and operational in the summer of 2018.
As part of the purchase of all of the ownership interests in BioNeva, the Company is also pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Daniel Larkin as a director of the Company. Mr. Larkin is one of the founders of BioNeva, and is also involved in several other cannabis consulting companies. Mr. Larkin possesses extensive experience in the cannabis industry. Mr. Larkin will play an important role in the Company’s operations in Nevada.
California
The Company through its California subsidiary, Golden State Green World LLC (“GSGW”), has terminated the leasing and consulting agreements with Emerald Farm Collective (“Emerald”), effective January 1, 2018. GSGW and Emerald have mutually agreed to allow Emerald to harvest its last crops before shutting down operations at GSGW’s wholly-owned facility located in Riverside County. GSGW and Emerald have further agreed that final reconciliations surrounding the outstanding leasing and consulting fees owed to GSGW by Emerald may be offset against potential services that Emerald would provide to GSGW in identifying and establishing a second location in California to apply for a license for both medical and recreational cannabis cultivation and sales, under the new California cannabis regulations effective as of January 1, 2018.
GSGW will continue to own the land and greenhouse facilities in Riverside County for future development purposes and for the result of the public referendum on legalizing commercial cannabis operations to be held in 2018 by Riverside County. The Company hopes to expand its California operations by establishing further licensed cannabis cultivation facilities.
