Company announces licensing agreement with Michigan company to produce and distribute Irwin Naturals THC products

 

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 31, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Irwin Naturals Inc. (CSE: IWIN) (OTC: IWINF) (FRA: 97X) (“Irwin” or the “Company”) announced today a licensing agreement with 42 Degrees Processing LLC (“42 Degrees”), through its subsidiary Irwin Naturals Cannabis, Inc., to produce and distribute Irwin Naturals THC products in Michigan, one of the fastest-growing cannabis markets in the country.

Klee Irwin, CEO of Irwin Naturals said, “Michigan is a significant step in what is becoming a sprint to put Irwin Naturals THC products on the shelves of dispensaries in all 38 states where cannabis is legalized. We’re tremendously excited to reach this agreement with 42 Degrees Processing as its state-of-the-art plant and robust distribution network will provide our customers with the quality they’re accustomed in this new offering.”

 

Sam Rosinski, CEO 42 Degrees said, “We’re excited at the chance to get Irwin Naturals THC products to the shelves of Michigan dispensaries. The presence of a brand as well known as Irwin Naturals sends a message about the value and legitimacy of the cannabis industry.”

 

Irwin Naturals was founded in 1994, and has built itself into a brand recognized in 80 percent of American households1 with its best-in-class nutraceuticals, such as its famous “Power to Sleep PM.” Irwin Naturals products are available in more than 100,000 stores in North America.

 

Under this licensing agreement, 42 Degrees Process will augment Irwin Naturals products with THC and make them available to the approximately 1,000 dispensaries currently operating in Michigan.2

 

Klee Irwin, CEO of Irwin Naturals said, “We are positioned as one of the first household brands to not only endorse the mainstreaming of THC, but promote it by virtue of the tremendous customer loyalty we have built in 28 years of caring for the country’s health needs.”

 

Cannabis is now legal in the majority of states. However, because it is not legal at the federal level, products must be approved on a state-by-state basis. As a national brand, Irwin Naturals is achieving national distribution by reaching licensing agreements with cannabis manufacturers on a state-by-state basis. Irwin Naturals previously reached licensing agreements with cannabis manufacturers in CaliforniaColoradoOhio and New Mexico. The addition of Michigan to this national footprint means Irwin Naturals THC products will be headed to the shelves of dispensaries in three of the top five cannabis markets in the country.

 

Michigan legalized the medical use of marijuana in 2008 when the Michigan Compassionate Care Initiative was passed by 63 percent of voters. Michigan was the 13th state to legalize medical use of marijuana in the U.S. and the first state in the Midwest. In 2018, Michigan became the first Midwestern state to allow both medical and recreational marijuana use. Recreational marijuana sales are projected to reach $1.5 billion in 2022.
