MariMed Expands Distribution of Medical Cannabis Products
Strategic Expansion into Pennsylvania Market
MariMed Inc. (“MariMed,” “the Company”) (CSE: MRMD) (OTCQX: MRMD), a prominent player in the cannabis consumer packaged goods sector, has made a significant move with a new agreement with TILT Holdings (“TILT”) (CBOE: TILT) (OTCPK: TLLTF) to broaden the reach of its renowned medical marijuana product line into Pennsylvania.
On July 30, MariMed Advisors Inc., a wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary of MariMed, signed a Management Services Agreement (the “MSA”) with TILT's Standard Farms, LLC. This partnership marks the first step towards MariMed taking on the daily management of TILT’s Standard Farms cultivation and processing facility located in White Haven, Pennsylvania, with the MSA set to take effect on September 1, 2025. The facility will remain under Standard Farms' ownership, but MariMed will provide them with essential management services, overseeing budgeting, financial planning, and compliance with local regulations. This agreement is anticipated to facilitate the distribution of MariMed’s highly regarded brands within one of the largest medical marijuana markets in the United States.
Terms of the Management Services Agreement
The MSA is structured as a four-year agreement where MariMed will earn a management fee amounting to 12.5% of Standard Farms’ gross revenue. This financial model reflects mutually beneficial interests aimed at maximizing efficiency and promoting growth within the Pennsylvania market.
CEO's Vision for Growth
Jon Levine, MariMed’s Chief Executive Officer, expressed enthusiasm about this new venture, stating, “Bringing our brands to the Pennsylvania market aligns perfectly with our ‘Expand the Brand’ strategy. This initiative is central to our goal of becoming the leading consumer packaged goods company in the medical marijuana space. We are actively seeking opportunities to introduce our products into new high-growth markets while deepening our presence in existing ones.”
Collaboration Between MariMed and TILT Holdings
Echoing his sentiments, TILT’s CEO, Tim Conder, stated, “Our collaboration with the MariMed team is exciting and timely. We anticipate that through this MSA, MariMed's established high-quality brands will resonate well with medical marijuana patients in Pennsylvania, much like they have in other markets. Our foundation of quality under the Standard Farms name creates an ideal platform for MariMed's entry into this promising market.”
