RavenQuest Announces Significant Supply Agreement With Wayland Group
December 18 2018 - 1:06PM
RavenQuest BioMed Inc. (the “Company” or “RavenQuest”) – (CSE:
RQB OTCQB: RVVQF Frankfurt: 1IT) and Wayland Group
(CSE:WAYL) (FRANKFURT: 75M) (OTCQB:MRRCF) (“Wayland”) are pleased
to announce that they have entered into a supply agreement whereby
Wayland will purchase up to 8,000 kg of dried flower cannabis from
RavenQuest in 2019. The total quantity will be shipped
periodically throughout 2019 as product becomes available.
As part of the supply agreement, Wayland will
immediately make a one-time payment of $2 million to RavenQuest in
anticipation of the first major shipment of cannabis flower in
March 2019. Pricing for the transaction is comparable with
prevailing wholesale cannabis prices.
“RavenQuest is very excited to be working with
Wayland as we both do our part to meet the huge demand for cannabis
across Canada,” stated George Robinson, CEO of RavenQuest.
“Negotiations were smooth and without major challenges; Ben Ward
and his team at Wayland are a pleasure to work with. This supply
agreement is a significant win for both sides of the transaction.
For RavenQuest’s part, 8,000 kg represents about 80% of our
estimated production for 2019, meaning this transaction provides us
much more certainty when it comes to selling our 2019 production at
competitive prices,” Robinson continued.
“We are thrilled to be working with George and
his team at RavenQuest to provide their specialty indoor product to
recreational cannabis consumers across Canada through our existing
distribution network. This agreement provides for efficiencies for
both companies, constructively working together to meet Canadian
demand through our existing resources. At the same time, this
allows us to channel our existing supply to the European market,”
stated Ben Ward, CEO of Wayland.
Maricann Group Inc., through its subsidiaries,
is operating under the Wayland Group name. For further details see
