Its unique approach to customer education has allowed it to replicate its marketing strategy across multiple countries.

Joel Shacker, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “With the addition of Sativida to the Company’s portfolio, we continue to increase shareholder value by bringing on companies that have existing revenue. The synergies that will be created between Ihuana SAS and Sativida will provide a runway for increased revenue, and sustainable growth. Additionally, this acquisition would allow the Company to develop as a vertically integrated business with international reach. We expect this acquisition to be the cornerstone for our entry into the European CBD market.”

Noah Laith, CEO of Sativida remarked, “We are excited about the opportunity to work with Mota. An acquisition will give us access to experienced cannabis and finance industry teams, allowing us to scale up growth. With this acquisition, we will have access to the capital and resources required to achieve our goal of becoming a leader in CBD production and retail across international markets.”
