Red White & Bloom Florida Facility Ready To Produce Edibles

Red White & Bloom Brands Inc. RWB RWBYF confirmed Thursday it has built out a new production facility, to GMP specifications, in Florida.   

The new production facility, constructed within a 4,800 square foot standalone structure at RWB Florida’s Sanderson location, was built to accommodate the market's fast-growing demand for edibles.

RWB has developed a branded capsule and rosin line along with a proprietary line of chocolates that will be available to medical patients in Q4 of 2021.

“We are very pleased to have completed this state of the art production facility ahead of time and begin production this month” Jim Frazier, GM of RWB Florida stated. “We will begin with premium specialized confectionary offerings as finished retail-ready packages where medical patients will be able to select from a variety of different products. We are confident this new facility, coupled with our expert staff of edible specialists, can produce a market-leading offering.”

The news comes on the heels of the company’s approval to launch adult-use cannabis sales in Michigan.
