Delta 9 Expands Distribution Business in Manitoba
2023年8月3日 - 7:00AM
DELTA 9 CANNABIS INC. (TSX: DN) (OTC: DLTNF) ("Delta 9" or the
"Company"), is pleased to announce that, through its wholly owned
subsidiary Delta 9 Logistics Inc., it intends to expand its
distribution and cross-docking business in Manitoba as a result of
Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries Corporation (“MBLL”) changes to
wholesale distribution regulations.
Effective July 31, 2023, MBLL implemented a set
of new regulatory enhancements intended to improve lead times for
the delivery of cannabis shipments from suppliers and distributors
to Manitoba based retailers.
The enhancements will allow the Company to bring
additional cannabis inventory from third-party suppliers into the
province, closer to the operating retail network, and significantly
improve the lead time and fulfilment cycles experienced by
retailers. This inventory no longer needs to be subject to a
purchase order to enter the province. MBLL also announced it will
remove the previous 8-day holding period for retailer orders,
allowing purchase orders to be shipped immediately.
“We view these announcements from MBLL as
material in improving the supply chain cycle efficiency for
Manitoba based retailers and improving logistics cost efficiencies
for out of province suppliers,” said John Arbuthnot, CEO of Delta
9. “We believe that these changes will allow us to significantly
expand our list of cross-docking and distribution customers and
increase overall revenues from this new growth segment. We applaud
MBLL and the Manitoba government who have taken several proactive
steps in the past number of months to support the cannabis industry
including the repeal of the 6% retail social responsibility
fee.”
The Company anticipates that the move to
warehouse inventory in Manitoba at its Winnipeg based facilities
will allow it to shorten lead times for deliveries to 3 – 5
business days, from 3 – 5 weeks previously. The Company currently
operates an 11,000 sq ft cannabis warehousing and distribution
operation licensed by MBLL and the Liquor Gaming and Cannabis
Authority (“LGCA”). The Company intends to begin executing expanded
distribution agreements with suppliers immediately and anticipates
that distribution shipments of locally stored products will begin
in Q3, 2023.
“Our cross-docking, distribution, and logistics
services further enhance our strategic relationships with key
licensed producer partners across all segments of Delta 9’s
business in Canada and we look forward to adding efficiency and a
high level of service to customers in Manitoba," said John
Arbuthnot.
