CALGARY, Feb. 12, 2019 /CNW/ - Sundial Growers Inc. (Sundial) is pleased to announce it has secured a cannabis supply agreement with the Ontario Cannabis Store (OCS). The agreement will give Sundial access to Canada's largest cannabis consumer market, contributing to its vision of becoming one of the most trusted cannabis companies.
Sundial recently announced amended licences and added cultivation space at its flagship facility in Olds, Alberta. Through this added growing capacity, Sundial will scale production of high-quality cannabis to serve both the adult-use and medical markets across the country.
"While the immediate focus for Sundial remains on ensuring uninterrupted supply to our existing customers, the Ontario market will be critical for Sundial's long-term strategy of establishing a considerable distribution network in Canada," said Andrew Stordeur, Chief Commercial Officer at Sundial. "We truly appreciate the due diligence initiated by the OCS during the competitive approval process and we are confident it will be a great partnership moving forward."
The OCS is the province's sole legal online retailer and wholesaler for recreational cannabis. Its focus is on providing safe and responsible access to recreational cannabis through its online retail store and operating the wholesale distribution network for legal private stores in Ontario.
Sundial crafts premium quality, small-batch cannabis with its best-in-class facilities. Sundial differentiates itself from other licensed producers by growing "craft-at-scale" cannabis using purpose-built modular systems and award-winning genetics.
