Aurora signs LOI with the Société des Alcools du Québec to Supply Cannabis for Quebec Adult Consumer Market

Under the terms of the LOI, Aurora will supply the Quebec market, on a monthly basis, with a wide variety of premium product from its facilities in Quebec , and elsewhere if demand requires. Supply quantities will be determined based on demand on a month by month basis, with a minimum of 5,000 for the first year, but no set maximum.

“This LOI is significant in terms of product volume, and an important step in our commercial development,” said Terry Booth , CEO of Aurora. “It also reflects our strong commitment to the Quebec market, where we have two production facilities, as well as access to significant additional supply through our partnership with The Green Organic Dutchman, once their Valleyfield facility is completed. We are pleased to be working closely with the SAQ, and look forward to becoming a key supplier of Canada’s second most populous province with more than eight million people.”
