InvestorsHub NewsWire – Sugarmade, Inc.
(OTCMKTS:SGMD)
("Sugarmade" or the "Company") is pleased
to
issue
the following Letter
to Shareholders:
Dear
Valued Shareholder,
We
would like to express our gratitude for your patience
and
commitment as we
continue to steer Sugarmade into what
we hope will be a
leadership role in the rapidly growing cannabis marketplace as a
vertically integrated farm-to-door solution for cannabis
consumers.
2020
was a landmark year for Sugarmade as we established, through our
capital and operational investment in
Budcars,
a
cannabis
delivery service, a
distinct and increasingly vertical model for delivering top
cannabis-based products to a growing marketplace. We
believe this marketplace remains
insufficiently supplied and inconsistently accessible for consumers
who want more
reliable quality and greater convenience.
To
that end, we continue to work to expand our
reach.
We
have experienced
some delays in opening
our
new
LA hubs, but we continue to work with the city and anticipate
that the
situation
will
be
resolved in
the
near term. We also continue
to
work to widen our delivery
reach
overall.
In
addition, we continue to
verticalize our model, creating a full farm-to-door structure
that expect
to produce high-quality
branded cannabis products positioned in a vertical in-house supply
chain. We
expect that this will provide Sugarmade
with optimal margins. We
believe
that we will
also be better able
to make use of 280e tax deductions related to production once we
have a more vertical structure in place.
With
our vertical vision coming together, our advantageous brand
development positioning, and an increasingly promising macro
context, we are very
excited
about the year in front of us.
Once
again, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to all our
stakeholders. Shareholder value is our number one priority, and we
very much look forward to keeping you abreast of Company
developments as we reach new milestones along the way.
Best
Regards,
Jimmy

Executive Officer
