The Brand Licensing Agreement will put Wildflower CBD products in over 840 cannabis storefronts across Western Canada and Ontario which represents a little better than 8 out of every 10 cannabis retail stores in those jurisdictions.
"There is already a high demand for Wildflower CBD products in Canada," says Krystian Wetulani, President at City Cannabis Co., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wildflower Brands. "We have customers asking about them almost every day. This addresses a clear gap in the market, with topical products being the most underrepresented category in the market vis-à-vis demand."
Wildflower CBD products have been available in the US since 2016, and have garnered a lot of popularity and attention, even amongst celebrities like Kim Kardashian, who made Wildflower CBD products a fixture at her luxurious CBD Baby Shower in 2019, and Kate Hudson, who called Wildflower's Relief Stick (formerly called the Healing Stick) her favourite CBD product of 2020.
"Rubicon Organics is a perfect partner for us," explains William MacLean, CEO of Wildflower. "They are one of the top organic cultivators in Canada, and their focus on quality is one of the many values shared between our companies."
Tim Roberts, President of Rubicon Organics states "We looked at a number of CBD brands to partner with and Wildflower stood out, not only for its great brand, but for quality of their products. We look forward to working with the Wildflower Team to bring these amazing topicals to the Canadian market."
