Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - November 13, 2019) - Hill Street Beverage Company Inc. (TSXV: BEER) ("Hill Street" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has signed a non-binding and non-exclusive letter of intent to produce cannabis infused beverages at a facility operated by Peak Processing Solutions.

Peak Processing Solutions is a Canadian cannabis co-packing and white label consumer product manufacturing services firm, currently completing the final set up of its purpose-built, world-class beverage and consumer products production facility. Under the working agreement with Hill Street, Peak will manufacture strategic products in specific formats, which are attractive to Hill Street's cannabis edibles consumers. With the introduction of "Cannabis 2.0" products into the Canadian market including beverages, topicals, and edibles, Peak's production capabilities will address Hill Street's consumer demand for its growing portfolio of cannabis product introductions on a scalable basis. With deep management and operational expertise, Peak offers Hill Street the flexibility to manage supply chain, production and distribution efficiently in a cost-effective manner.

"Strategically, as our first key cannabis production partner, Peak will have the entire process we need to produce, fill and package our cannabis-infused beverages," commented Terry Donnelly, Chairman & CEO of Hill Street. "Their production facilities and standards are an excellent fit for our requirements, and their strict adherence to safety and quality procedures as well as the compliance requirements mandated by Health Canada are essential to our brand. We could not be more delighted to partner with Peak's world-class team of experts who have deep experience working with the biggest names in cannabis and consumer packaged goods manufacturing. Leveraging Peak's competencies with Hill Street's extensive history of developing award-winning, non alcoholic brands, we expect that this partnership will prove to be one of the cornerstones of our success in the cannabis sector."

"Hill Street's brands are market-proven winners already," said Gregg Battersby, Founder and President of Peak Processing Solutions. "When we designed our facility, we envisioned the opportunity to work with world class brands such as those marketed by Hill Street, and we are confident we can continue to build on their reputation by producing cannabis beverages that meet the high standards for taste and consumer experience they are already known for."

Next Steps for Bringing Hill Street's Cannabis-Infused to Market

In order for Hill Street to launch its cannabis infused products, Peak will need to receive its Health Canada licence to manufacture cannabis edibles, with completion expected in early 2020. Peak and Hill Street will be required to submit samples of the proposed products to Health Canada for approval, and there is no guarantee that the products will be acceptable to Health Canada for distribution in Canada without alterations or changes to both the formulations and packaging, as well as the intended branding for the products. Further, Hill Street and Peak will be required to receive permission and purchase orders through the Provincial regulators in order to secure distribution for these products. Hill Street and Peak aim to distribute through both government and privately-owned retailers.
