TruTrace Technologies and California-based Nonnie’s Nectar Execute Letter of Intent to Begin Product Validation Program

TruTrace Technologies Inc. (TSXV:TTT, OTC PINK: BKKSF) (“TruTrace” or the “Company”), creator of the first blockchain-enabled fully-integrated IP tracking platform for the cannabis industry, today announced it has entered into a letter of intent dated May 15, 2019 with Nonnie’s Nectar, LLC, a Los Angeles-based hemp extract company that produces premium full-spectrum hemp-based products grown in the U.S.A. using organic farming practices, to employ the StrainSecure™ platform to collect, register, manage, track and publish verified testing data of several of their products in the market.

Under this arrangement TruTrace will produce a unique quick-response (QR) code for each associated SKU, which will then render real-time test results of each product on StrainSecure’s hosted solution. Customers will be given dynamic information on the products they are holding in their hands while still in the store. Upon completion of the collection and registration of the products, Nonnie’s Nectar will then be able to guarantee the contents, origin and quality of their products. The LOI will be superseded by a formal agreement and the transactions contemplated therein are subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

“Our step forward with Nonnie’s Nectar is an illustration of the growing traction that our proprietary software is gaining, and the value of secure and verified testing data for this growing industry. Companies throughout the hemp and cannabis industries are recognizing the inherent and significant value in protecting and publishing the quality of their crafted products,” said TruTrace Technologies Chief Executive Officer and Director, Robert Galarza. “With our unique technology, Nonnie’s Nectar will soon be able to guarantee the safety and potency of their full-spectrum hemp extract products and support their mission of creating the highest quality extracts with no solvents, heavy metals or pesticides.”

“TruTrace Technologies will enable us to guarantee that our products contents, purity and potency are exactly as labelled, providing our customers with level assuredness about our dedication to quality control,” said Ryan Beers, Chief Executive Officer of Nonnie’s Nectar.
