“This has the potential to be a transformative acquisition by TransCanna. The combined company will expedite our processes and corporate goals by at least 24 months. TransCanna will be revenue generating, with the ability to immediately scale throughout California,” stated Jim Pakulis, CEO of TransCanna.
