Kelowna, BC -- Nov. 5, 2018 --
Investorshub NewsWire -- Valens GroWorks Corp.
(CSE: VGW) (the
"Company" or
"Valens"), a multi-licensed,
vertically integrated provider of cannabis products and services
focused on various proprietary extraction methodologies,
distillation, cannabinoid isolation and purification, as well as
associated quality testing is pleased to announce that it has
entered into a multi-year cannabis extraction services agreement
(the "Agreement") with GTEC Holdings (TSXV:GTEC) (OTC:GGTTF) ("GTEC").
Under the Agreement,
GTEC will ship bulk quantities of dried cannabis to Valens for an
initial four-year term. The Company will receive and process the
cannabis on a fee for service basis into crude, distillate or other
cannabis oil derivatives as required by GTEC before bulk shipping
the desired product back to GTEC for final processing and
sale.
"We are excited to
announce another material agreement to support a great Canadian and
local Okanagan industry peer in bringing high quality, cannabis
derivatives to the market. This Agreement shows the start of a
shift where companies are beginning to understand the demand and
supply shortage for oils and Valens' strategic position in that
shift. We have been working diligently to ramp up our processing
capacity to support new agreements such as this," says Tyler
Robson, CEO of Valens.
"In mature cannabis
markets, derivative products such as vape pens, edibles and infused
beverages account for over half of all products sold at the
consumer level. Over the coming years, we anticipate that the
Canadian market will evolve to reflect a similar product mix", said
Norton Singhavon, Chairman & CEO of GTEC Holdings. "This
partnership provides GTEC with the ability to utilize Valens' IP,
technology and expertise to immediately develop value added
products. We are excited to commence this partnership, given our
respective core competencies and the geographic proximity to our
facilities, we view this as a well-suited and synergistic
relationship".
