To that end, we feel Burb has led the charge in building one of the premier cannabis culture brands within the Canadian market and abroad, supported by a strong performing retail store portfolio in BC and backed by a passionate community of followers.
This evolution in the market opens a new and very significant opportunity for us to support select brands and retailers in launching their own in-house branded products.
