Organigram Launches Trailblazer Snax, the Largest, Competitively Priced Cannabis-Infused Chocolate Bar in Canada
MONCTON, New Brunswick--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 28, 2020--Organigram Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: OGI) (TSX: OGI), the parent company of Organigram Inc. (the “Company” or “Organigram”), a leading licensed producer of cannabis, is pleased to announce the launch of its most recent cannabis 2.0 product Trailblazer Snax, a premium-quality, value-priced, cannabis-infused chocolate bar.
Made with premium quality ingredients including cocoa butter, all-natural flavors and pure distillate, Trailblazer Snax has been developed to satisfy the most discerning chocolate connoisseurs while remaining an affordable cannabis-infused option.
Available in both mint and mocha flavours, the 42g bar with 10mg of THC is competitively priced and the largest cannabis-infused chocolate bar currently available in Canada. With each bar consisting of five sections, the Company expects it will appeal to chocolate lovers, consumers looking to share and individuals looking to control their dosage.
“At Organigram, it has always been our intention to not only be a leader in the cannabis marketplace but to also continue to disrupt it, with new products, new technology and new ways of thinking,” says Greg Engel, CEO, Organigram. “Offering our customers exceptional chocolate, exceptional flavour and exceptional value is our goal.”
Organigram has made a significant investment in chocolate innovation and product development. Organigram’s investment in state-of-the art equipment and manufacturing processes means that each of the five sections of the Trailblazer Snax bar are filled separately, allowing for higher accuracy of infusion.
The Company’s $15 million investment in a high-speed, high-capacity, fully automated production line also helped bring Edison Bytes, premium cannabis-infused chocolate truffles, to market earlier this year. The first shipments of the Company’s Trailblazer Snax have headed to market and will be available through retailers in all provinces except Quebec in the coming weeks. Quebec does not allow the sale of cannabis-infused chocolate.
