May 14 2021 - 6:34AM
HEXO Corp (“HEXO” or the “Company”) (TSX: HEXO; NYSE: HEXO) today
announced Purchase and Sale Agreements in relation to its first US
production facility, through a wholly owned US subsidiary. The
~50,000 sq. ft. facility, located in Northern Colorado, will
provide US CPGs and consumers access to the Powered by HEXO®
technology.
“Signing the Purchase and Sale Agreements is an
important milestone as we continue to expand into the US market.
The Colorado facility will be instrumental to successfully
executing on our US strategy, which includes the supply of high
quality Powered by HEXO ® technology to our current and potential
multinational CPG partnerships in the United States,” said HEXO CEO
and co-founder Sebastien St-Louis. “The facility will provide HEXO
with the necessary infrastructure to begin production and enable
the Company to continue expanding our joint-venture with Molson
Coors to create Truss CBD-infused beverages, while also creating
the necessary capacity to support future, non-beverage CPG
partnerships.”
The Colorado production facility, HEXO’s first
in the US, is zoned for production of a full range of cannabinoids
and offers multiple operational capabilities. The site will support
Powered by HEXO initiatives across the country, in compliance with
all applicable laws and regulations.
Powered by HEXO® is the trusted solution for
leading CPG companies to safely enter the cannabinoid market,
combining HEXO's expertise in cannabis with CPG partners’ expertise
in their industries to co-develop best-in-class cannabinoid-infused
products.
The closing of the transaction is subject to a
due diligence period as well as usual customary closing conditions,
which is anticipated in the fourth quarter.
