A multi-million dollar deal has one Okanagan-based cannabis producer becoming one of the largest in the country.
Avant Brand, with offices in Âé¶čAV, has purchased the Flowr Okanagan, also based in Âé¶čAV, for $4.105 million, as well as $1.1 million in shares.
The agreement will give Avant a total of 185,000 sq. ft. of space among their facilities, and is expected to increase its production capabilities by around 60 per cent.
Avant CEO Norton Singvahon said that the purchase is the result of a yearâs worth of research, and that they view the Âé¶čAV facility as a âtop-tier and world class assetâ.
The Flowr facilities, which should begin its insolvency upon the closure of the deal in early 2023, was put up for auction on Dec. 1.
