Organigram Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: OGI) (TSX VENTURE: OGI), the
parent company of Organigram Inc. (the “Company” or “Organigram”),
a leading licensed producer of cannabis, is pleased to announce a
collaboration with Lift & Co. Corp ("Lift & Co.") (TSXV:
LIFT) (OTCQB: LFCOF) to support the launch of Canada’s first
branded cannabis educational program via Lift & Co.’s CannSell
retail training program.
CannSell’s retail certification program, developed in
partnership with MADD Canada to promote the responsible sale of
cannabis, is available in seven provinces and one territory.
CannSell stands as the sole mandatory, provincially-approved
cannabis training program for all Ontario retail workers.
Organigram is the first licensed producer in Canada to partner with
Lift & Co. on educational content on the platform focusing on
the Company’s unique growing processes and product attributes.
“Education and public safety are top priorities for Organigram.
We’re pleased to partner with Lift & Co. on this module, which
will ensure that thousands of front-line retail staff receive
up-to-date and essential information about safe consumption,
high-quality cannabis products and important regulations,” says
Greg Engel, CEO, Organigram. “It’s no secret that producers face
challenges reaching consumers in this highly-regulated environment;
connecting with and educating retail staff provides a unique
opportunity to bring our brand messages to life right in the places
consumers are making purchase decisions.”
The rollout of the Organigram-branded module, which began in
June, will deliver digital training on Organigram’s unique,
three-tiered growing methodology, best practices and Edison
Cannabis Co. and Edison Reserve products to budtenders across
Canada.
“We opened up our CannSell platform to allow select brands, such
as Edison Cannabis Co., to develop digital education modules for
retail budtenders that showcase their brands and contribute to the
education of consumers,” says Matei Olaru CEO Lift & Co. “This
module will allow Organigram to connect directly with budtenders at
any time and educate retail staff about their product attributes,
best practices and stay top-of-mind with budtenders - the only
people in the value chain speaking directly with consumers.”
