"Moving into the growth stage of our business model is a huge milestone and testament to the momentum Next Green Wave established in 2020 as a premium CPG producer and brand in the California cannabis market. Expansion will allow us to capitalize on that momentum by increasing our branded product footprint throughout the state and by solidifying strategic partnerships in the bulk wholesale market. Furthermore, we are looking forward to working with the City of Coalinga on not only achieving Company growth, but also supporting the City's growth through significantly increased tax revenue and job creation. It is a great partnership." - Michael Jennings CEO Next Green Wave
