The expanded agreement adds to the volume of extraction services Valens will provide to Tilray and adds an option for Valens to offer contract manufacturing as well, Valens said in a Monday press release. 

Why It's Important 

The two-year expanded agreement will see Valens perform extracting services for Tilray at a minimum of 60,000kg of dried cannabis flower and hemp biomass. This figure represents a 300-percent increase from the initial number. 

Under the expanded agreement, Valens said it may also offer similar services to Tilray for its tinctures, gel caps, vape cartridges and topicals.

"We are honored to be recognized by Tilray not only as a leader in the extraction space, but also for our ability to create value through our innovative product development and contract manufacturing services," CEO Tyler Robson said in a statement.
