NORWOOD, MA, July 30, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MariMed Inc. (OTC: MRMD), a leading multi-state cannabis operator focused on health and wellness, today announced a licensing agreement with Denver-based Binske, which offers an innovative range of diverse cannabis products. Under the terms of the agreements, MariMed is licensed to manufacture and distribute the Binske portfolio of products in seven states: Illinois, Ohio, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Maryland, Delaware, and Maine, adding substantially to the availability of Binske brands, which are currently licensed in Colorado, Nevada, Florida, and California. The Binske brands include a variety of consumer options, including concentrates, edibles, vaporizers, and topicals.
Ryan Crandall, MariMed's Chief Product Officer and SVP Sales, stated, "Binske is a popular brand in Colorado and Nevada, and we are enthusiastic about the potential of its products in the markets where we operate. Binske will be an exciting addition to the diverse portfolio of seven brands MariMed currently owns and licenses, such as Betty's Eddies™, Nature’s Heritage™ and Kalm Fusion™, among others. Binske conforms to MariMed’s standards of high quality and expert formulation that our customers rely on. We expect to have Binske products available during the fourth quarter of 2019."
"Binske branded products will be a very successful addition to MariMed’s diverse portfolio available in our extensive channels in multiple states," stated Bob Fireman CEO of MariMed. "We quickly realized the exceptional quality of their brand and products. More importantly, their management team shares our vision of how to build winning brands in the cannabis industry."
Alex Pasternack, Executive Vice President of Binske, said, "MariMed’s first business was in advising cannabis companies on diverse licensing and regulatory environments, and since then they have built a formidable network of operations in their territories. We couldn’t have a better partner to introduce our brands to important new markets."
Jake Pasternack, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of Praetorian Global LLC, Binske's parent company stated, "The fact that Binske products will soon be available in retail outlets from Malibu to Martha's Vineyard gives us access to reach an unprecedented number of potential consumers. That access, coupled with the ability for those consumers to know they will get the same Binske product, no matter where they buy it, is paramount to building consumer patronage and most importantly trust."
