On-Demand and Delivery Services Applications Expand Into Growing Number of Consumer Based Industries Including Legal Marijuana in Canada

PALM BEACH, Florida, February 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

More and more cities that recently approved legal marijuana activity as well as in Canada have yet to spell out the ins and outs of cannabis legalization measures. In Canada for instance, cannabis sales remain illegal outside of the Health Canada medical marijuana program that allows mail-order delivery, while cities such as Vancouver have already gone so far as to regulate and license medical marijuana dispensaries after a government-appointed task force outlined recommendations for the potential regime, including restricting cannabis sales in liquor stores. Technology and Cannabis companies in the news with recent developments and market performance include: ParcelPal Technology Inc. (OTC: PTNYF) (CSE: PKG.CN), Tetra Bio-Pharma Inc. (OTC: GRPOF) (CSE: TBP.CN), MassRoots, Inc. (OTC: MSRT), Kush Bottles, Inc. (OTC: KSHB) and Aurora Cannabis Inc. (OTC: ACBFF).

ParcelPal Technology Inc. (OTC: PTNYF) (CSE: PKG.CN), a technology driven logistics company that offers on-demand delivery of merchandise from leading retailers, restaurants, medical marijuana dispensaries and liquor stores, is pleased to announce a partnership with North Shore Liquor Shop and Sapperton Liquor Store to offer Vancouver area customers on demand delivery of wine, hard liquor and beer. North Shore and New Westminster residents can now get alcohol delivered straight to their door steps in as little as one hour. Read this and more news for ParcelPal Technology at http://marketnewsupdates.com/news/ptnyf.html

Owner Imroz Rapini has been committed to serving local communities in the Vancouver area since 2012. "The experience doesn't stop at our stores, we got into this business because we believe beer, wine, and spirit lovers deserve a more enjoyable way to discover great products at great prices. With today's on-demand lifestyle, that means offering same-day delivery. ParcelPal's unique logistics technology allows us to reach areas we aren't currently able to service. Having this alternative revenue source not only allows for us to reach a greater market locally, but also expand our product offerings. We have a finite amount of shelf space and walk-in traffic in our stores, and limited resources, so delivery has never been considered a feasible option until now." 

ParcelPal Technology recently announced that they also have exclusively partnered with one of Canada's largest medical marijuana dispensary chains. They currently have over 15 locations in operation across Canada, and are expected to have over 100 dispensary locations by the end of Q4, 2017. ParcelPal will begin integrations and launch in Vancouver locations in the weeks ahead.
