KIRKLAND, Wash., Oct. 05, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GrowLife, Inc. (OTCQB: PHOT), one of the nation’s most recognized indoor cultivation product and service providers, today announced that GrowLife will be exhibiting at the 4th Annual Maine Cannabis Convention on October 6-7 at the Portland Sports Complex in Portland, Maine. GrowLife Regional Director Jeremy Belmont will meet with other industry leaders to increase awareness on what the leading ‘picks and shovels’ company in the cannabis space can offer the rapidly-expanding marketplace. Brightfield Group projects the East Coast will grow to a $2.5-billion cannabis market by 2022.
Maine approved cannabis legalization in November 2016, and the state is now moving toward writing the regulatory rules. Maine’s adult-use market is expected to hit $265 million once the adult use program has had two or three years to mature, according to a 2018 market report from ArcView Market Research and BDS Analytics. The first storefronts are expected to be open in spring 2019, according to Portland Press Herald. Notably, GrowLife recently held a grand opening ceremony for its new GrowLife Hydroponics storefront and fulfillment center in Portland, Maine. The store carries GrowLife’s line of industry-leading products, along with thousands of other brands and products that cater to cultivators of all sizes.
“GrowLife is thrilled to exhibit our products and offerings at such a relevant regional event,” said GrowLife CEO Marco Hegyi. “We see this conference as an opportunity to share our industry-leading products with a diverse network of movers and shakers looking to improve their grow operations while reducing cost. With Maine moving forward to implement its adult use program, the timing couldn’t be better to discuss GrowLife’s offerings with potential consumers and commercial clients.”
GrowLife Hydroponics also serves as the company’s largest fulfillment center for orders placed on its e-commerce platform and serves as its chief distribution hub in the Northeast region. Massachusetts recently legalized adult use, and with both New Jersey and New York expected to follow suit, the region promises vast opportunities for GrowLife, Inc. to meet increasing demand for ancillary products and services.
