CCIM:Piggy backing off of the last question … I am thinking about the non-smoking retirement home. There are movie nights, card nights, and other social events – ideal for beverages and in many such retirement homes cooking in the units tends to be discouraged if not prohibited outright … plus the heating of cannabis in an apartment’s oven could result in strong odour that carries to other units and hallways. Again … I am thinking whether medical or recreational. Do you see the aging population as a large potential market segment?

TGOD: Absolutely, evidence supports cannabis assisting people with countless ailments including sleep disorder, anxiety and chronic pain. The aging population represents an important consumer base that we want to be able to provide premium organic cannabis products to. TGOD aims to provide patients and customers with novel and effective dose-controlled delivery systems that are safer, more standardized, and more discreet than most current cannabinoid delivery systems.

CCIM:To the extent that you can answer … is TGOD done with respect to JVs, partnerships, or even M&A in the beverage space?

TGOD: Absolutely not. Remember, our entire domestic operations are fully funded, we have over $300 million dollars in cash now with a significant portion earmarked to these initiatives. We will continue to look for opportunities that make sense for us, both internationally, and domestically. With the experience our senior executives have in the beverage and beverage alcohol industries (125+ years) coupled with our newly formed beverage division, 40,000 kg productive capacity beverage specific facility, and new hires like Prem Virmani (see press release here) I believe we are in an excellent position to form a multitude of strategic partnerships across the board.

CCIM:Just about out of real estate here and I want to give you the opportunity to remind your current investors as well as prospective investors – why invest in TGOD?
