LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwired - Apr 26, 2017) - Agritek Holdings, Inc. (
In addition to the operational contract which is expected to produce several hundred thousand dollars in revenue for the Company once the cultivation facility is fully functional over the term, the company has received at least one funding proposal from institutional investors for consolidation of over $300,000 of existing derivative debt, $250,000 in cash and up to a three (3) million dollar line of credit for the Puerto Rico operation, the new Canada based "cannabis friendly" Bed and Breakfast and 15 acre facility recently announced as well as future acquisitions.
B. Michael Friedman, Chief Executive Officer of Agritek Holdings, Inc., stated, "This long term operational contract and licensing agreement signed for the 25,000 cultivation facility in Puerto Rico brings Agritek to a new level and validates AGTK as an experienced leader within a new and what I believe to be a truly emerging cannabis market with enormous tourism and reciprocity of medical card holders of all states with cannabis legislation. Agritek will have the opportunity to create numerous jobs, make major investments in the economy of Puerto Rico and set the standard for mandates through new technologies now being developed and licensed by Agritek including seed to sale tracking systems, vaping products and edible brands."
