CALGARY, ABJan. 21, 2021 /CNW/ – Inner Spirit Holdings Ltd. (“Inner Spirit” or the “Company“) (CSE: ISH), a Canadian company that has established a national network of Spiritleaf cannabis retail stores, today announced the launch of Spiritleaf Origins, a private label brand of cannabis products expected to be offered initially through cannabis retail stores in AlbertaSaskatchewan and Ontario this spring.

“The Spiritleaf brand has built such a strong customer following with longstanding legacy customers as well as with new customers. Our guests have come to trust us for our product knowledge and expertise in helping them shop for the cannabis products that fit their needs. The Origins private label collection is an extension of that expertise with a strong nod to the historic and cultural strains that underpin this new industry. We plan to curate many great products under the Origins name to deliver them through our stores, and we’re very proud to have collaborated with Zenabis on this initial offering. We expect the products will be in high demand by our guests and that curating premium private label products will deliver high quality and value to our customers as well as enhance the financial performance of our stores,” said Darren Bondar, President and CEO of Inner Spirit.

The initial products highlighted in the Origins program includes two specially selected strains available in various dried flower and pre-roll formats. The strains are being grown and packaged for Spiritleaf by Zenabis Global Inc. (TSX:ZENA), a Canadian licensed cultivator of quality recreational cannabis. Spiritleaf is also working with other premium cultivators in the industry to expand its private label collection with cannabis products such as vapes, beverages and edibles in future.

The Company’s store expansion program also continues to be active with a total of five Spiritleaf store openings projected for January. Stores were opened earlier this month in Hamilton (Downtown) and Toronto (Stock Yards). Additional store openings expected this month include Gander in Newfoundland and LabradorToronto (Cabbagetown), and Edmonton (Sherbrooke). The stores are franchised except for the Edmonton location which is corporate owned. Please visit www.spiritleaf.ca for further information on store openings, locations and operating hours.
