Golden Leaf Holdings Wins Big at Third Annual Oregon DOPE Cup

Golden and Chalice Farms Among Brands Recognized for Excellence


PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 09, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Golden Leaf Holdings (“GLH” or the “Company”) (CSE:GLH) (OTCQB:GLDFF), a leading cannabis oil solutions company built around recognized brands, celebrated last week as it was honored at the Third Annual Oregon DOPE Cup, Dope Magazine’s Halloween event that celebrates Oregon’s cannabis industry.

The Company won in the following categories:

The DOPE Cup is one of the most popular and coveted cannabis awards in the industry, due to its adoption of the scientifically-based Trichrome Institutes TAG scoring system, which uses a double-blind grading procedure, a detailed SOP, and a cannabis grading calculator app.

“There is nothing better than being recognized by our cannabis community in Oregon,” said William Simpson, CEO, Golden Leaf Holdings. “There is no question that the state of Oregon is a national leader when it comes to cannabis, but we are first and foremost a local company where we are known for our commitment to excellence when it comes to delivering a first-class product. We love to innovate and bring new products to the market. Be on the lookout for more great items from us in the year ahead.”

This follows news of last week’s announcement that the Company closed C$18.8M in debenture financing and completed the Medical Marijuana Group Corporation acquisition.
