Namaste Announces Supply Agreement With Supreme to Purchase 1000 kg of Premium Medical Cannabis

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Jan. 25, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Namaste Technologies Inc. (“Namaste” or the “Company”) (CSE:N)(FRA:M5BQ)(OTCMKTS:NXTTF) is pleased to announce that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Cannmart, Inc. (“Cannmart”) and 8528934 Canada Ltd. (“7ACRES”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Supreme Cannabis Company, Inc. (“Supreme”) (TSXV:FIRE), have signed a Definitive Supply Agreement (the “Agreement”) whereby Namaste, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Cannmart, has committed to purchase 1000 kilograms of premium quality medial cannabis from 7ACRES in 2018, commencing on the date that Cannmart becomes a “Licensed Producer” under the Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations (the “ACMPR”). This Agreement represents a significant milestone for Namaste, as its first commitment to a volume purchase of medical cannabis. Namaste believes that Supreme’s business plan of scaled production of branded, premium cannabis flower aligns itself well with Namaste’s goal of positioning Cannmart as Canada’s largest online retail e-commerce platform for medical cannabis.  

Select Terms of the AGREEMENT

  • Cannmart has agreed to purchase a minimum of 1000 kilograms of medical cannabis in the 2018 calendar year, starting from the date whereby Cannmart becomes a “Licensed Producer” as defined in the ACMPR.
  • 7ACRES has agreed to supply Cannmart with premium medical cannabis at a price of $6,000 per kilogram.
  • Should Cannmart fail to purchase a minimum of 1000 kilograms of medical cannabis within the 2018 calendar year, Cannmart will be deemed to have purchased, and will pay for, the full 1000 kilograms at the price of $6,000 per kilogram; provided that if 7ACRES cannot supply to Cannmart the amount requested in any given month, then the amount owing shall be reduced by the amount they failed to supply in such month.
  • Cannmart has agreed to display 7ACRES’ trade-mark on all packaging of the 7ACRES product.

Supreme is focused on producing high quality cannabis through a commitment to carefully curated genetics, quality focused cultivation practices and a post-harvest process that includes a 14-day whole plant drying process and hand finishing of each flower. Namaste
anticipates Supreme becoming a key partner in ensuring a strong supply chain for premium medical cannabis flower and looks forward to a long-term, mutually beneficial relationship. Namaste believes this Agreement significantly strengthens its position, and further validates the role the Cannmart facility will soon play in the Canadian cannabis market once the “sales-only” license is received.  

Management Commentary
John Fowler, CEO of Supreme comments: “As a cultivation focused Licensed Producer we rely on strong retail partners to provide us access to consumers and favourable brand positioning. We are impressed by the platform being built by Namaste to date, and their innovative strategy to position Cannmart as a “sales-only” entity is a natural fit with our 7ACRES business model.  The team at Namaste and Cannmart understand the value of premium cannabis flower and we look forward to taking part in the launch of Cannmart as one of Canada’s first “sales only” Licensed Producers.”

Sean Dollinger, President and CEO of Namaste comments: “We are very pleased to announce this Agreement with Supreme and to make a purchase commitment, which we feel brings significant value in securing supply for premium quality medical cannabis for Cannmart. Namaste feels confident that Supreme’s business strategy as a wholesale producer will lend itself well as Namaste focuses its efforts on the retail component in the medical cannabis industry. We look forward to working with Supreme and their management team and anticipate a long-term relationship that will be beneficial for both companies over the next several years.”
