Vancouver, BC, Canada, March 1, 2021, Xebra Brands Ltd. (“Xebra”) is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement (the “Private Placement”) for gross proceeds of up to CAD$5 million.
ABOUT XEBRA: Xebra is a cannabis cultivation and products company, with global brands and intellectual property. Our products focus includes beverages, wellness and leisure.
Xebra is expecting a decision by the Supreme Court of Justice of Mexico, pursuant to which it may be granted an injunction authorizing it to be the first in Mexico to legally commercialize hemp derived cannabinoids such as CBD and CBG. The injunction requested aims to include the right for the importation of seeds, cultivation anywhere in Mexico without a specific limitation on size, harvesting, processing, the creation of cannabis products with less than 1% THC, and the right to sell those products domestically or by export.
Xebra has also been selected by the Dutch government, out of a competitive pool of applicants, as one of only five companies to compete for two exclusive licenses to cultivate medicinal cannabis in the Netherlands, with an initial six-year guaranteed government contract for each successful party, estimated at Euro 70.5 million.
Management of Xebra intends to pursue a direct listing of its shares on a recognized Canadian stock exchange in Q2 2021.
