$CRON ---> Cronos Group Inc. Launches New Recreational Brand Spinach™



TORONTO , Sept. 13, 2018 /CNW/ - Today, Cronos Group Inc. ("Cronos Group" or the "Company" is pleased to announce the launch of its second cannabis brand for the domestic recreational market, Spinach™.

On October 17, 2018 , Canada is expected to become the first G7 country to federally legalize recreational cannabis. This watershed moment means that consumers in Canada will be able to purchase high quality Spinach™ without fear of persecution for their love of beautiful green plants.

"Cronos Group's first priority is responsible distribution so we made sure to select a brand name that we felt would not appeal to kids," said Mike Gorenstein , CEO of Cronos Group. "Spinach™ has been carefully curated to deliver on our promise to provide high-quality products to fun-loving mature adults who are sick of hearing about kale."

Spinach™ is focused on offering Farm-To-Bowl™ products that bring friends together and make experiences more enjoyable. Spinach™ has selected some of the most popular strains from Cronos Group's genetic library because when you're having fun, you should never have to worry about the quality of your Spinach™. Harmful additives don't have a place in good Spinach™, which is why quality control is the only think we take seriously. More information on how to Get-Your-Greens™ can be found at https://spinachcannabis.com/. Warning: Spinach™ may be a gateway to pizza.

Spinach™ is the second brand launched by Cronos Group for the domestic recreational market, following its premium brand COVE™. COVE™ products are high quality, hand-trimmed, terpene-rich, and never irradiated. More information about COVE™ can be found at https://www.covecannabis.ca/.
