KELOWNA, BC – The Valens Company Inc. (NASDAQ: VLNS) (TSX: VLNS), a manufacturer of cannabis products, announced it has entered into a manufacturing partnership with Montreal Cannabis Médical Inc. to provide manufacturing and extraction services for MTL’s pre-rolls and vapes.

Valens expects the contract to begin at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2022.

MTL is a flower first company committed to bringing craft cannabis to the masses through a five-step process that includes an award-winning hydroponic system, hang-drying, and hand-trimming. With industry-leading yields, MTL offers high quality cannabis at a competitive price point. Since its adult-use market launch in October 2020, MTL Cannabis has emerged as one of Canada’s fastest-growing dried flower consumer brands, placing in the top five in dried flower sales in most provinces.

“MTL has demonstrated the kind of success, consistency and quality that The Valens Company looks for in a partner,” said Tyler Robson, CEO of The Valens Company. “We are excited to expand our presence with one of the fastest growing and reputable flower consumer brands in Canada.”

“Valens not only has one of the broadest ranges of manufacturing capabilities but also shares the same commitment to consumers and quality that we do,” said Richard Clement, CEO of MTL Cannabis. “We look forward to working with Valens to expand our offering for consumers in a greater variety of formats.”

At Valens, it’s personal.
