RavenQuest Provides Shareholder Update
August 07 2019 - 6:00AM
RavenQuest BioMed Inc. (the “Company” or “RavenQuest”) –
(CSE: RQB OTCQB: RVVQF Frankfurt: 1IT), one of
Canada’s most innovative cannabis companies, provides the following
update on recent developments.
Product Testing
After the inaugural harvest at our Edmonton
facility, Orbital Gardens have now successfully produced six
cultivars including Brooklyn Sunrise, The Ultimate, CBD Compassion,
CBD Kush, Charlottes Angel and CBD Skunk Haze. All of these
cultivars passed analytical tests otherwise known as the COA
(Certificate of Analysis) as required by Health Canada and came
back with no detected pesticides or Aflatoxins, a reading that is
exceedingly rare thus far from Canadian licensed producers.
We are very excited to see the low microbial readings which serve
as further evidence that we have a repeatable and safe
product. Also the microbial counts indicate that our facility
cleanliness is pristine and the airflow inside the Orbital Gardens
is doing its job.
Health Canada Inspections
Both of our two ultra-modern grow facilities in
Markham and Edmonton were recently visited by Health Canada
inspectors. Inspectors were on site for two days at each facility
and Health Canada found no major issues at either.
Health Canada did spend additional time
reviewing the Edmonton facility with a particular focus on the
Company’s main technological innovations, namely Orbital Gardens
and Harter pharmaceutical dryers. Health Canada found no issues
with the Orbital Gardens or our drying technology.
Supply Agreement
RavenQuest continues to ship product to Wayland
Group, and we continue to maintain an open and transparent dialogue
with them during their transitional period. RavenQuest also
continues to negotiate supply deals with other parties including -
but not limited to - several provincial wholesalers and export
markets. These discussions are prudent with a view toward
customer diversification and have no bearing on shipments to the
Wayland Group.
Summary
After a thorough Health Canada review of our
cannabis production processes, particularly with the Orbital
Gardens at our Edmonton facility, it’s clear that the process is
working, producing an extremely clean and safe end-product and
passing compliance. This is an important and timely
validation of RavenQuest’s production facilities, particularly in
the wake of recent compliance violations by major industry
participants.
Of equal importance is the proof of concept from
RavenQuest’s revolutionary Orbital Garden technology. Our
Company has now successfully taken the technology from a concept,
through engineering, into a built facility, then to successfully
producing some of the cleanest cannabis industry wide, in under 24
months.
Now that our concept has been proven, passed all
lab testing and scrutiny of Health Canada, the next steps will be
to rapidly scale up production at Edmonton and simultaneously move
our European expansion plans forward.
