Cannabis-focused research and development company The Green
Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. (TSX: TGOD) (OTCQX: TGODF) this morning
announced its entry into a letter of intent for a 50/50 joint venture with
Queen Genetics/Knud Jepsen A/S (“Knud Jepsen”), which is based in Hinnerup,
Denmark. Per the update, the joint venture will initially consist of a 200,000
sq. ft. cannabis production facility located within Knud Jepsen’s 1.3 million
sq. ft. state-of-the-art automated greenhouses in Denmark. Through this facility,
TGOD will have an opportunity to increase its total organic funded capacity by
roughly 25,000 kg. “We are very excited about entering the European market as
the leader of international organic cultivation,” Robert Anderson, CEO of TGOD,
stated in the news release. “Organic is one of our key differentiators, and
when creating a catalog of higher margin products across varying delivery
methods, organic inputs make a significant difference in the end product. This
JV establishes TGOD’s product across Europe and increases our funded capacity
to 195,000 kgs. This represents another significant step forward as we create
the largest organic cannabis brand in the world.” Closing of this transaction
remains subject to customary closing conditions.
