Decibel Cannabis Company: Defining the Ultimate Expression of Cannabis

CALGARY, March 2, 2020 /CNW/ - Westleaf Inc. (the "Company" or "Decibel Cannabis Company Inc.") WL WSLFF announces today that following the filing of Articles of Amendment with the Alberta Corporate Registry on March 1, 2020,  the Company is now named and will be operating as Decibel Cannabis Company Inc ("Decibel"). The comprehensive rebrand marks a new chapter in the evolution of the organization and brings together the Westleaf and We Grow businesses under one name, shared vision, and a visual brand identity that reflects our mission to define the ultimate expression of cannabis.

The common shares of the Company are anticipated to commence trading under its new name on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") under the ticker symbol DB within two business days following the issuance of a bulletin by the TSXV (with its ticker changing on the OTCQB once final regulatory approvals are received). The Decibel rebrand will be reflected on the Company's new website at www.decibelcc.com.

"Decibel is a culmination of two companies committed to creating quality products and experiences beyond the ordinary. This rebrand reflects our ongoing dedication to craftsmanship, precision and fiscal discipline to deliver profitability in the cannabis industry", said Benjamin Sze, President and CEO of Decibel. "Our team is focused on raising the bar in every facet of the organization, as proven today with the launch of our rebrand, which was conceptualized, developed and executed entirely by our talented employees internally."
