EDMONTON, Alberta, Aug. 13, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Radient Technologies Inc. (“Radient” or the “Company”) (TSX Venture: RTI; OTCQX: RDDTF), and Premium 5 Ltd. (“Premium 5”) are pleased to announce that the Company has received an order from the BC Liquor Distribution Branch (the “BCLDB “) for 22 of Premium 5 SKUs, including the first Live Resin and Live ResinX vape cartridges produced under the partnership between the Company and Premium 5. The initial order from BC is the largest SKU assortment purchase order to date for Premium 5, reaffirming the traction that the brand has achieved in the high-end concentrate category. It is also the first sale of 2.0 products by Radient. Products will soon be available in the province in what proves to be the widest launch of extracted products to date.
“The first sale of 2.0 products for Radient is a key milestone in our transition to being a leading white label provider,” said Denis Taschuk, CEO of Radient. “Premium 5 brings an immense amount of consumer and product knowledge to this partnership and has been integral to being able to execute so quickly. I am proud of our team’s work to have received our first order only weeks after receiving our sales license. We made a decision to partner with Premium 5, understanding that their unique products are in high demand, which would accelerate our ability to get products listed for sale and has resulted in Radient already receiving vendor approval by five provinces and territories with more on the way.”
With the addition of BC, Premium 5 will be available in the adult recreational market in six provinces, including Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia, with more provinces and territories expected to be added shortly. Premium 5 is also currently the sole provider of concentrates to Shelter Market, a ground-breaking platform for cannabis distribution to medical patients across Canada.
“Premium 5 is excited to bring its innovative line of unique products to British Columbia and to continue our rapid growth in both sales and new SKUs,” said David Schwede, CEO of Premium 5. “Adding Radient as a manufacturing and sales partner has helped to accelerate the phenomenal success we have had in the short time since our launch. Premium 5 expects that between May 1st, 2020 and July 31st, 2020, we received purchase order revenue in excess of $3.5 million, and will be cash flow positive. With the wide variety of SKUs being released over the next 90 days, the company fully intends on continuing to hold its market share and further increase the gap between itself and the various competitors in the high-end concentrate category.”
Premium 5 has successfully navigated complex product development and regulatory challenges to offer a portfolio of innovative concentrate products that now totals 26 SKUs, including an already available line of live resin caviar and live resin badder products, both of which are offered in 0.5g and 1g formats. Several new products have been recently added which are unique to the Canadian market and represent a capitalization on unmet subcategories.
