SmallCapPower | November 5, 2018: Organigram Holdings Inc. (TSXV:OGI), one of the Canadian cannabis stocks, announced recently that it has signed a supply agreement with the BC Liquor Distribution Branch. This is the eighth such provincial supply agreement out of 10 provinces that have finalized supply agreements and aligns well with the Company’s increasing focus on producing and selling cannabis, with a shift away from its clinic operations. The agreement puts Organigram on par with industry majors such as Canopy Growth Corporation (TSX:WEED) and Aurora Cannabis Inc. (TSX:ACB), which also have supply agreements across Canada.
