Smoke Wallin, chairman and CEO of Vertical Wellness, added, “This combination of Vertical Wellness with CanaFarma Hemp provides our combined investor base with a best of class 'house of brands' and leadership and a platform for rapid growth in one of the most exciting health and wellness developments in generations. Our vision of using plant-based medicines and functional products for health and wellness resonates with today’s consumer who is looking for alternatives to big pharma.”
