BevCanna and Argentia Gold to Bring Line of Cannabis-Infused Beverages to the Atlantic Provinces


Infused Beverage Expert Signs Definitive Agreement with Maritime-based Licensed Distributor to Exclusively Represent BevCanna's Products in Newfoundland, Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick

VANCOUVER, BC, July 29, 2020 /CNW/ - Emerging leader in cannabis-infused beverages, BevCanna Enterprises Inc. (CSE: BEV) (OTCQ: BVNNF) (FSE: 7BC) ("BevCanna" or the "Company") announced today it has finalized a deal with Maritime-based licensed cannabis producer Argentia Gold Corp. ("Argentia") to exclusively represent BevCanna's line of cannabis-infused beverages in Newfoundland, PEI and New Brunswick. The two companies have signed a definitive agreement for Argentia to distribute, market and sell BevCanna products across the three provinces.

With consumption rates for cannabis among the highest in Canada (25.9 per cent for Newfoundland and 20.9 per cent for PEI), the Atlantic provinces represent an attractive market for cannabis-infused product producers like BevCanna. The market for cannabis is anticipated to expand to $56M annually in New Brunswick by 2025, $49M in Newfoundland and $21M per year in PEI. BevCanna chose Argentia Gold for their strong knowledge of the Atlantic cannabis markets and their sales strategy for the nearly 50 Licensed Retailers across the three provinces. Engaging an experienced partner in the region will also allow BevCanna to focus on other significant Canadian markets, while building exposure and revenue in the Atlantic provinces.

"Argentia is the ideal partner for us in the burgeoning Atlantic market," said John Campbell, Chief Strategic Officer for BevCanna. "They have an unparalleled knowledge of the regional cannabis landscape and a detailed understanding of the distribution network. They also have excellent relationships with the provincial bodies in these provinces, which will assist us as we focus on building our presence in the region."
