Canadian e-commerce and plant-based community builder PlantX Life (CSE: VEGA) (Frankfurt: WNT1) (OTCQB: PLTXF) is celebrating reports of its growing revenues and operational foothold following the announcement of its Q1 financial statement’s filing.
The Vancouver, British Columbia-based company is developing a one-stop shopping experience for the plant-based community, simultaneously working to educate consumers about the virtues of plant-based living and help develop a cohesive coterie of like-minded food enthusiasts.

During the past year, the company has undergone a period of rapid vertical building as part of its mis sion to grow a model similar to e-commerce giant Amazon’s but devoted to plant-based consumer interests.
PlantX sells more than 5,000 products in line with its mission and plans to expand its offerings to include cosmetics, clothing, and its own water brand. While e-commerce is a significant part of its operations, the company maintains a flagship storefront in Squamish, British Columbia and is establishing additional physical stores in San Diego, California and Tel Aviv in the state of Israel to serve those nationalities (https://ibn.fm/bXyvs).
According to the financial statement, the company achieved a gross margin of 28 percent for the quarter, compared to 23 percent during the previous quarter. As of June 30, PlantX had working capital of nearly $15 million, inclusive of $13.5 million in cash.
“PlantX continues to invest its efforts and resources strategically to grow and meet the demand for our plant-based products,” founder Sean Dollinger stated. “It is encouraging to see the impact of our work. We are more committed than ever to continue building our business by executing on our mission and expansion goals.”
