AgraFlora Organics International Inc.
(“
AgraFlora” or the
“
Company”) (
CSE: AGRA) (Frankfurt:
PU31) (OTCPK: AGFAF), a growth oriented and diversified
international cannabis company, is pleased to announce the Company
has entered into a Letter of Intent (the “LOI”), dated October 30,
2019, with EuroLife Brands Inc. (“EuroLife”)
(
CSE: EURO) (Frankfurt: 3CM) (OTCPK: EURPF).
Under the terms of the LOI, the Companies will collaborate to
curate custom, evidence-based cannabis content and associated
learning modules to be deployed across EuroLife’s
physician-sanctioned German cannabis education platform,
Cannvas.de.
The integration of Cannvas.de into AgraFlora’s German vertically
integrated medical/pharmaceutical ecosystem will afford the
Company’s existing German patients and pharmaceutical partners
unbridled access to independent, physician-backed and
educator-approved cannabis literature and learning modules.
Cannvas.de leverages machine learning algorithms and artificial
intelligence (“AI”), coupled with a suite of automation tools, to
contextualize and adapt to its users and deliver timely and
relevant information based on identified behaviours and
interests.
On October 25, 2019, AgraFlora announced the acquisition of 100
per cent of the issued and outstanding shares of The Good Company
GmbH, the parent company of German EU-GDP medical cannabis
distributor, Farmako GmbH (“Farmako”). Farmako's German
distribution network extends over 19,800 pharmacies and comprises
an aggregate patient population of over 100,000 unique
individuals.
AgraFlora’s exposure to a mounting patient population represents
the critical mass required for the Companies to achieve defendable
first-mover advantages within the German cannabis education
marketplace, while initiating high visibility growth of its EU-GDP
distribution channels. Additionally, AgraFlora and EuroLife will
deploy Cannvas.de’s diverse analytical tool suite to assist with
managing and measuring a host of key consumer data analytics, thus
aggregating lucrative patient preference datasets to assist with
further tailoring its product offering.
The German patient population for medical cannabis is
experiencing exponential growth, with over approximately 100,000
patients now active as of October, 2019, an increase from
approximately 800 in 2017. Prohibition Partners has forecasted that
Germany will eclipse one million eligible medical cannabis patients
by 2024.
With over 365,000 physicians, 2,200 hospitals and thousands of
clinics, Germany is becoming a leading European Union (“EU”) member
state within the emerging international cannabis industry. Patient
numbers continue to experience geometric growth rates and cannabis
product uptake continues to be robust across the country.
Brandon Boddy, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of
AgraFlora: “Our recent acquisition of leading German medical
cannabis distributor Farmako affords us the distinctive advantage
of unencumbered exposure to a large sample size of German medical
cannabis patients. In collaboration with EuroLife, we will look to
champion the German evidence-based cannabis education marketplace
by leveraging proprietary data science techniques and advanced
regression analytics.
The Cannvas.de platform will also bolster our efforts to
strengthen our German doctor outreach programs, as well as the
shepherding of high-profile corporate and university drug plan
outreach initiatives.”
Further demonstrating the Company's commitment to providing
accessible cannabis education, EuroLife’s Director of Strategy and
Education, Daniel Davidzon, was recently published in the
National Post arguing for the crucial need for evidence-based
cannabis education for cannabis consumers
across Canada and the world. With so many
cannabis-curious consumers confused over what treatments, products
and services are available to them, the need for an
education-driven marketplace has grown exponentially. AgraFlora and
EuroLife are poised to lead the market with its repository of over
400 physician-backed and educator-approved articles and over 70
courses in its education platform.
“Germany is the first of many European markets in which we will
be expanding our platforms, as that market, with a population of
over 80 million is a key catalyst for our strategic revenue growth
in 2020,” said Shawn Moniz, Chief Executive Officer, EuroLife
Brands Inc. “We planned for the inclusion of additional language
sets in the Cannvas suite of platforms with the goal of expanding
into key markets and look forward to adding many more languages as
we continue to deliver evidence-based cannabis education to the
world.”
Under the terms of the LOI, it is contemplated that upon
execution of a definitive agreement, AgraFlora will issue EuroLife
Brands a predetermined amount of share-based consideration in the
capital of the Company.
