As part of its portfolio expansion strategy, TGOD plans to launch a line of premium cannabis-infused chocolates. The new product line will be produced using high-quality Belgian chocolate, organic gourmet ingredients, and infused using RIPPLE’s proven fast-acting cannabis technology.
Valleyfield Reconfiguration
As previously disclosed, considering capacity challenges with third party processing, the Company made the strategic decision to transform its licensed facility located in Valleyfield, Quebec, into a processing hub to support its expanding product portfolio. In doing so, TGOD significantly reduced its reliance on third parties, gained more control over its processing activities, and improved agility and quality control.
The equipment relocation has now been completed, with production of RIPPLE Dissolvable Powders and premium teas expected to restart this month. TGOD has also begun production of concentrates and Ripple Gummies in Valleyfield. Hash should be available for sale at the end of this month under the Company’s mainstream brand, Highly Dutch, while Ripple Gummies are planned to launch in the fourth quarter.
“As we conducted a complete review of our operations, we saw the opportunity to leverage Valleyfield and centralize our processing activities for 2.0 products. Not only does it streamline our supply chain and help absorb the fixed costs of maintaining the site, it also makes us more agile and provides us with more control over the development and quality of our products,” commented Brian Athaide, CEO of TGOD. “By developing the in-house capabilities to manufacture multiple product lines, we are well positioned to capitalize on the increasing popularity of cannabis derivatives such as beverages, chewables, chocolates, concentrates and teas,” added Athaide.
Hiring Drive
TGOD is currently hiring for several positions to support its production ramp up. The Company is looking for a broad range of profiles, from Process Engineers to Edibles Manufacturing Team Leads to Quality Control Technicians, and more.
