Ayurcann is now selling products across the country and has over 3,000 products listed for sale (the “Product Offerings”) throughout the vape, concentrate, oil and flower sectors (the “Sectors”). Our increase in revenue, combined with the growth of our in-house brands, should have a positive impact on the future development of Ayurcann,” said Igal Sudman, Chief Executive Officer of Ayurcann.
OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE THREE-MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2022
- Over 3,000 Product Offerings throughout New Brunswick, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and British Columbia with over 30 new stock-keeping units (“SKUs”) being launched over the next three to six months, providing customers with more offerings in the Sectors;
- Top selling Company brands: are Fuego, Hustle & Shake, Joints and Bravo6 and Xplor;
- Consistently offered new SKUs to the market, reflecting the reliability and value that Ayurcann has brought to the recreational cannabis market in Canada.
“With a focus for innovation and growth of new product offerings, combined with our current Product Offerings, we are confident that we can grow market share in the Sectors across the country to help grow our top line revenues,” further added Mr. Sudman.
