OGI OrganiGram Holdings Inc

Organigram Holdings Inc. (TSX VENTURE:OGI) (OTCQB:OGRMF) (the “Company” or “Organigram”) is undergoing a production-facility expansion that will more than triple the size of its operations.   The multi-million-dollar project will meet the growing needs of the Company’s medical patient base, as well as prepare Organigram for the legal, adult-recreational marijuana market.

Greg Engel, Organigram’s CEO, called the development plans a significant, strategic investment designed to ensure the company retains its leadership position when recreational marijuana is legalized next year.  Engel said the highlights of Organigram’s plans are:

• The addition of approximately 140 new employees by the end of next year;
• An expansion of its existing production facility from 36,000 to 134,000 square feet by the end of this year grown on three levels;
• A further 36,000 square-foot expansion scheduled for completion by mid 2018;
• A production-capacity increase from approximately 5,200 kilograms annually to more than 25,000 kg per year;
• Acquisition of a third building at 55 English Drive for future expansion, adjacent to the current campus; and
• All current project components are fully funded, on budget, and on schedule.

“We are committed to this growth because our number-one priority is our ability to offer customers – both now and in the future – consistent access to a range of high-quality products that meet their needs and tastes,” said Engel.  “Our three-level indoor production allows us to maximize our footprint, our yields and produce a consistent high-quality product supply for our customers.”

“This is an incredibly exciting time for our Company, as well as the entire industry,” said Engel. “We’re delivering on our vision to be a major national player in both the medical- and adult-recreational cannabis markets.  These moves will add value for our shareholders and will create economic growth and opportunities in New Brunswick.”
