Future Farm’s Strategic Partner BCWC, LLC Selected as One of 20 Applicants to Receive Priority Certification by the Massachusetts Cannabis Control Commission

Future Farm Technologies Inc. (the “Company” or “Future Farm”) (CSE: FFT) (OTCQX: FFRMF) is pleased to announce that BCWC, LLC (“BCWC”) has been named as one of 20 recipients of Priority Certification by the Massachusetts Cannabis Control Commission (“CCC”). BCWC’s application to enter the recreational marijuana business will therefore be reviewed on an expedited basis.

As previously announced, Future Farm has entered the Massachusetts cannabis market through its strategic partnership with BCWC, formerly known as Bristol County Wellness Center, Inc. BCWC has a special permit from the City of Attleboro and a provisional license from the Department of Public Health to build and operate a 24,700-sq ft. Registered Marijuana Dispensary (“RMD”) that will grow and sell medical marijuana.  Because of that achievement, BCWC had the right to apply, and did so, to the CCC for “Priority Certification.”  Recipients of Priority Certification are exclusively able to file the first round of applications to, among other things, cultivate marijuana for adult use (i.e. recreational use) beginning on April 16.  The CCC announced on April 10th that, out of well over 200 applications for Priority Certification, it granted only 20.  BCWC was one of the 20 recipients of Priority Certification.

Derek Ross, BCWC’s Manager, commented, “We are very proud to be one of only 20 companies chosen. Becoming a leading cultivator and retailer of adult use cannabis in Massachusetts is a key part of the BCWC strategy. We also look forward to contributing to an increase in the Massachusetts cannabis tourism industry, providing the state with revenue, tax dollars, and job growth.”

Mr. William Gildea, CEO of Future Farm commented, “We made the decision to support BCWC because of the experience and professionalism of Derek Ross and his team. Their success in making this very short list of applicants with Priority Certification demonstrates why that decision was a good one.”  He continued, “This development further solidifies our position as one of the first movers in a state that has approved, but not yet implemented, the adult use of cannabis.”

Future Farm’s strong strategic partnership with BCWC includes loaning BCWC $5,003,100 under a Secured Convertible Promissory Note to fund completion of the 24,700 sq ft vertically integrated BCWC facility in Attleboro, as well as active managerial, administrative and operational support.  The Note will convert automatically into a 51% ownership interest in BCWC on the date on which BCWC receives its RMD Certificate from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
