Tinley Expands Distribution With Shelf Life Distributing

THIS NEWS RELEASE IS NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR TO U.S. PERSONS

LOS ANGELES, Calif. and TORONTO, April 06, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Tinley Beverage Company Inc. is pleased to announce that it has expanded the distribution of its award-winning cannabis-infused beverages throughout California via an exclusive agreement with Shelf Life Distributing. 

The Company is pleased to have entered into an exclusive agreement with Shelf Life Distributing.  Under the agreement, Shelf Life will sell and distribute the full line of Tinley's non-alcoholic, cannabis-infused beverages to licensed dispensaries and home delivery services throughout California.  Shelf Life is a subsidiary of Gold Flora LLC, one of California's foremost, vertically integrated cannabis companies.  Gold Flora's assets include a 625,000 square foot cultivation and manufacturing facility in Desert Hot Springs, California, as well as a renowned lineup of ultra-premium vape pens.  Shelf Life brings a sales force of 10+ salespeople, several of whom have recently joined the company with $1+ million monthly books of business.  The agreement with Tinley will significantly enhance Tinley's existing sales, merchandising reach, including budtender education, product demonstration and logistics capabilities.  The agreement also includes provisions for Shelf Life to perform certain warehousing and shipping functions from Tinley's distribution facility in Long Beach when it becomes licensed.

"The beverage category is finally catching on with consumers, and this positions it to be a key untapped category within the cannabis industry," said Laurie Holcomb, Founder and CEO of Gold Flora.  "Tinley's products have excellent effects and onset time, plus they taste great."

"Tinley is delighted to have attracted this caliber of distribution," remarked Richard Gillis, President of Tinley, West Coast USA. "The enhanced sales and delivery services come on the heels of our products taking the top two awards at this year's Emerald Cup, and as legal cannabis products experience an historic surge in demand."

Shelf Life has taken delivery of 100% of the inventory from Tinley's Phase 2 bottling facility.  This facility has now been fully decommissioned in anticipation of the operationalization of its Phase 3 facility.
