Resonate Blends, Inc. (OTCQB:KOAN), a cannabis & hemp-based holding company announced on Monday that it has signed a letter of intent to acquire all assets of the Florida-based lemon and grass™ cannabis wellness brand.
The acquisition will expand Resonate’s market presence and national footprint through multi-state distribution and product-level synergies explained the company’s CEO Geoff Selzer.
“lemon and grass™ reinforces the core notion of Resonate’s vision that value-added brands are the future of Cannabis,” Selzer said. “This acquisition is the first step of our multi-state expansion plans and supports our strategy of growing both organically through internal development and by acquisition.”

Mutually Beneficial
Meanwhile, lemon and grass™, whose products focus on the functional side of cannabis wellness, is expected to complement Resonate’s existing product line, which is focused on targeted, precisely-calibrated experiences.
“We are building a portfolio of brands focused on cannabis as a part of a productive and intentional lifestyle while benefiting from synergies through expanded product development resources, technology, operational know-how and distribution,” Selzer added.
Strong Presence In Florida's Vibrant Market
lemon and grass™ has a strong presence in the Florida market through a licensing agreement with an established MSO, which distributes the brand to over 40 dispensaries in the Sunshine state.
Similar to the Koan family of products, lemon and grass™ combines nature, science and technology to formulate a product line that includes balms, bath salts, tinctures, relief capsules, body oils and transdermal patches. The company, which uses indoor and sun-grown cannabis from associated farmers, recently completed a successful trial in California through 50 dispensaries that are now preparing for the brand to be officially available there in the near future.
