TORONTO, March 29, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MJardin Group, Inc. (CSE: MJAR) (the “Company” or “MJardin”), a leader in premium cannabis production, today announced that it has made its first shipment of recreational cannabis to the province of Alberta.

The initial shipment includes Flint & Embers Hyperion, MJardin’s unique take on the GSC x Conspiracy Kush cultivar, Flint & Embers Orion, MJardin’s unique take on the Whiteberry cultivar, BLLRDR Afghani Bullrider and BLLRDR Wedding Cake.

Alberta has been able to transition to the legal cannabis market at an accelerated rate. With nearly half the legal cannabis stores in the country, Alberta has captured the second-highest sales of legal cannabis in Canada (Statistics Canada, 2021), overtaking British Columbia, and second only to Ontario.

Alberta hosts the largest proportion of experienced cannabis users, shifting customer expectation towards mature product propositions, forcing cannabis brands to get on board with broader trends in consumer-packaged goods (CPG). Certain trends, along with strategic innovation and portfolio optimization, have helped brands stand out in this evolving province.

MJardin’s agile customer-centric strategy has built the framework for success in Alberta. The Company’s Canadian consumer-facing brand, Flint & Embers, and partner brand BLLRDR, launch into Alberta with two distinct brand offerings. The strategy allows The Company freedom and flexibility to flesh out each individual brand resulting in a greater ability to define unique target audiences, develop new products that incorporate features and benefits that reflect customer needs, and fulfil the brands deeper purpose and vision. With unique brand offerings, MJardin’s customer focused strategy continues to broaden their demographic reach across Canada.

“We are delighted that our cannabis brands will now be available to consumers in the province of Alberta – Canada’s second largest recreational cannabis market,” stated MJardin Group CEO, Pat Witcher. “Across Canada we are seeing customers migrate from the black market to the legal market, and as competitors come into the market, we continue to re-evaluate our offering to ensure we are exceeding industry expectations.”

Caution Regarding Cannabis Operations in the United States

Investors should note that there are significant legal restrictions and regulations that govern the cannabis industry in the United States. Cannabis remains a Schedule I drug under the US Controlled Substances Act, making it illegal under federal law in the United States to, among other things, cultivate, distribute or possess cannabis in the United States. Financial transactions involving proceeds generated by, or intended to promote, cannabis-related business activities in the United States may form the basis for prosecution under applicable US federal money laundering legislation.

While the approach to enforcement of such laws by the federal government in the United States has trended toward non-enforcement against individuals and businesses that comply with medical or adult-use cannabis programs in states where such programs are legal, strict compliance with state laws with respect to cannabis will neither absolve the Company of liability under US federal law, nor will it provide a defense to any federal proceeding which may be brought against the Company. The enforcement of federal laws in the United States is a significant risk to the business of the Company and any proceedings brought against the Company thereunder may adversely affect the Company’s operations and financial performance.
