TORONTOApril 9, 2018 /CNW/ – Hiku Brands Company Ltd. (“Hiku” or the “Company“) (CSE: HIKU), Canada’s first vertically-integrated cannabis brand house, is pleased to announce its wholly owned subsidiary DOJA Cannabis Ltd.

Receiving our license to sell is the crowning milestone in our licensing journey that started in 2013. Becoming only the 28th independent company in Canada with a cannabis sales license under the ACMPR gives Hiku the distinct advantage of being able to showcase and establish the DOJA brand in advance of legal adult-use and retail cannabis sales,” said Alan Gertner, CEO of Hiku.
