SLANG Worldwide Inc. SLNG SLGWF launched its vape brand, O.pen, in West Virginia through its strategic partnership with Trulieve Cannabis Corp. TCNNF. As part of the strategic partnership with Trulieve, O.pen vape products will be sold in Trulieve's nine West Virginia retail locations and through its wholesale network composed of 40 dispensaries throughout the state, with this number continuing to grow as demand continues to build.
John Moynan, CEO of SLANG, stated, "Our entry into the West Virginia market is extremely timely as West Virginia's medical cannabis market continues to evolve and consumers increasingly look for today's most popular cannabis products. O.pen has remained a top-performing vape brand for over 10 years and we are seeing stronger product sales and increased market share in our core markets more than ever before. Entering the West Virginia market through our longstanding partnership with Trulieve, who has established a leadership presence in West Virginia since launching the first medical dispensary in that state, provides a key opportunity to quickly add a new revenue stream to our business and supports our overall mission to build a national brand."
This new partnership agreement expands upon the company's longstanding strategic alliance with Trulieve, which began in July 2019 with the successful launch of SLANG's products in three states across the country, including, Maryland, Massachusetts and Florida.
Gina Collins, Trulieve's chief marketing officer, stated, "Our partnership with SLANG allows us to exclusively introduce O.pen into West Virginia at our dispensaries. As we continue to build our presence in the state, the addition of SLANG's market-leading vape furthers our ability to deliver the highest quality of cannabis products and customer experiences to our growing patient base."
