"ABcann Global Corp. (OTCQB: ABCCF) (TSX VENTURE: ABCN), with its healthy cash position and aggressive expansion plans, is one company seeking to address these supply concerns, particularly in the medicinal market.

"ABcann's recent efforts to address the expected shortfall in Canadian cannabis supply place it at the forefront of the blossoming industry. Its strong cash position is being used to both expand its fully-operational Vanluven facility and continue construction of its 150,000-square-foot Kimmett facility. As noted in a July news release, ABcann expects first cultivation from the Kimmett facility in the fourth quarter of 2018, with the project reaching full production capacity by the first quarter of 2019. With this expansion, the company will look to expand on its position in the Canadian market while pursuing a number of global initiatives in Europe, Israel and Australia."

About ABcann Global Corporation
ABcann was one of the first companies to obtain a production license under the Marijuana for Medical Purposes Regulations, which it received on March 21, 2014. It obtained a sales license on December 31, 2015. ABcann's flagship facility, in Napanee, Ontario, contains proprietary plant-growing technology, including environmentally-controlled chambers capable of monitoring and regulating all variables in the growing process. This approach and the systems in place allow ABcann to produce organically grown and pesticide-free, high-yielding plants, which, in turn, can generate high-quality products that are consistent from batch to batch. ABcann is able to control environmental and nutrient demands, tailor-made for a particular strain of cannabis, without the variation that is typical when producing large quantities in less-controlled, larger rooms and greenhouse-type structures. ABcann's modular approach to systems technology eliminates scale-up risk and allows ABcann to locate anywhere in the world and maintain consistency and quality of product.
