Erik Anderson, President and CEO of Fiore Cannabis, commented,
“The first quarter of this year was a pivotal one for Fiore with a number of key achievements. We were able to focus our activity and efforts on our operations in Nevada and California while divesting non-performing operations in Canada and improving our balance sheet.
Our focus for the remainder of 2021 is to move the company into a growth phase and expand our operations in Nevada and California. As an example, the partnership we signed during the first quarter with Allied Corp. is advancing successfully, and we’ll be looking to more than double the cannabis grow space at the Apex Facility in the near term.
As a company, we have put ourselves in a strong position and expect to continue growing our operations and executing on our strategy this year.”
Fiore Cannabis has been developing medical and recreational cannabis products since 2014. Current brands include Fiore Cannabis, Diamante Labs, PureCloud 9, Surfer and The Weekender.
