TORONTO, Sept. 13, 2018 /CNW/ - Today, Cronos Group Inc. ("Cronos Group" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the launch of its second cannabis brand for the domestic recreational market, Spinach™.
On October 17, 2018, Canada is expected to become the first G7 country to federally legalize recreational cannabis. This watershed moment means that consumers in Canada will be able to purchase high quality Spinach™ without fear of persecution for their love of beautiful green plants.
"Cronos Group's first priority is responsible distribution so we made sure to select a brand name that we felt would not appeal to kids," said Mike Gorenstein, CEO of Cronos Group. "Spinach™ has been carefully curated to deliver on our promise to provide high-quality products to fun-loving mature adults who are sick of hearing about kale."
Spinach™ is focused on offering Farm-To-Bowl™ products that bring friends together and make experiences more enjoyable. Spinach™ has selected some of the most popular strains from Cronos Group's genetic library because when you're having fun, you should never have to worry about the quality of your Spinach™. Harmful additives don't have a place in good Spinach™, which is why quality control is the only think we take seriously. More information on how to Get-Your-Greens™ can be found at https://spinachcannabis.com/. Warning: Spinach™ may be a gateway to pizza.
Spinach™ is the second brand launched by Cronos Group for the domestic recreational market, following its premium brand COVE™. COVE™ products are high quality, hand-trimmed, terpene-rich, and never irradiated. More information about COVE™ can be found at https://www.covecannabis.ca/.
