via NetworkNewsAudio - NetworkNewsAudio (NNA), a NetworkNewsWire
(NNW) Solution that delivers clients unparalleled visibility,
recognition and brand awareness in the investment community, today
announces the online availability of its interview with Icon
Exploration Inc. (TSX.V: IEX.H), a client of NNW currently focused
on assessing potential acquisition targets in the cannabis
industry.

NNW’s Stuart Smith introduces Icon Exploration CEO Rob Fia to an
interview that discusses the company’s strategy for vertical
integration across the legal cannabis space.
Icon Exploration is completing a reverse takeover of City View
Green (“CVG”) to enter into the cannabis space. As Fia explains,
CVG is an applicant under the ACMPR with Health Canada seeking both
cultivation and extraction licenses and is currently retrofitting a
40,000-square-foot-facility in Ontario.
The company has established a management team that boasts
extensive expertise and experience across many sectors and market
verticals, including cannabis extraction and product branding and
development, including oils, extracts and concentrates. Also on
board is a consultant with expertise from the wine and spirits
industry with a successful track record in business development, as
well as a “master grower” formerly with WeedMD who brings over 50
strains to the table.
Having established a strong leadership team, Fia says the
company’s near-term goals are to finalize its exchange listing,
raise capital to fund completion of its cultivation facility, and
secure cultivation and extraction licenses from Health Canada. Upon
obtaining licensure, the company aims to move rather quickly on
extraction through a contact that seeks to purchase oils.
Additionally, CVG has strong industry contacts seeking strategic
partnerships that will allow it to expand in the retail space.
Fia also notes how CVG will stand out from competitors in the
market and raise awareness in the investment community.
“If you differentiate yourself from the market, you will attract
the attention of investors,” he says.
The company’s vertical integration is critical in a market where
the cannabis flower will become a commodity in the future, and Fia
expects CVG to distinguish itself by creating various products that
appeal to the cannabis consumer. He believes the company is
well-positioned to create its own brands or in-license third party
brands, bolstered by a strong team, industry contacts, and the
ability to adapt as the market changes.
“This is not a market that’s stagnant. It’s in flux,” Fia
concludes. “I think that we’ve got a very good, smart team that has
grown small companies into very large companies, and I think we’re
going to be positioned nicely in the future to be one of the top
cannabis companies listed on the TSX.”
