Diego Pellicer Plans to Become a Fully Integrated Cannabis Company

Diego Pellicer Plans to Become a Fully Integrated Cannabis Company

The company has announced several letters of intent to purchase retail, manufacturing and cultivation assets in Colorado.

October 3, 2019
Melissa Schiller

Colorado Gov. Jared Polis signed H.B. 19-1090 into law this past summer, opening the door for outside investment and ownership opportunities in the state’s cannabis market, and Diego Pellicer is in turn launching an M&A strategy to take its business to the next level.

The company, which primarily functions as a cannabis brand and development company, has announced letters of intent to purchase a series of yet-to-be-named assets in Denver: a 3,300-square-foot retail store, a 2,287-square-foot cannabis-infused product manufacturing facility and two cultivation facilities with a total of just under 30,000 square feet of grow space.

“We have a series of assets that we are pursuing currently, both the ones we’ve announced and ones that are still in the pipeline,” Diego Pellicer CEO Ron Throgmartin told Cannabis Business Times. “We’ve been patiently waiting for the Colorado market to open up business to publicly traded companies, which we are on the OTCQB. We’ve had very close ties in the marijuana industry … in Colorado but we’ve never, until the recent passage of H.B. 1090, had the opportunity to directly profit from the sale of marijuana, and this is a major shift for Diego Pellicer.”

DENVER (Sept. 25, 2019) – Diego Pellicer Worldwide, Inc. (OTCQB: DPWW), the premium marijuana brand and development company, today announced that it has executed a letter of intent to purchase a second cannabis cultivation facility in Denver. The fully upgraded, 16,279 square-foot cultivation facility produces approximately 2,650 pounds of medical and recreational cannabis per year.

“We have been aggressively implementing our new business model which includes direct ownership in cannabis operations.

We look forward to working with the Colorado Marijuana Enforcement Division to garner approval for Diego Pellicer Worldwide to become a fully licensed cannabis company.”

The letter of intent for the first cannabis cultivation facility in Denver was announced on Sept. 10, 2019. That modern, 13,000 square-foot cultivation facility produces approximately 2,000 pounds of cannabis per year.

The non-binding letter of intent is subject to compliance with the Colorado Marijuana Enforcement Division and House Bill 19-1090. The letter of intent will be followed by a contract once rulemaking for Colorado House Bill 19-1090 has concluded and the Marijuana Enforcement Division has issued regulations guiding the process for public companies and out-of-state investors to apply for cannabis licensing ownership. The completed regulations and application process are expected in November 2019 after the final public comment hearing is held on Oct. 8. Diego Pellicer Worldwide, Inc. has been actively engaged in the rulemaking workgroups, working alongside other stakeholders to assist and help complete the rulemaking process.

Special Report: Cannabis Researchers, Scientists Confront Vaping-Related Lung Disease Debate

Special Report: Cannabis Researchers, Scientists Confront Vaping-Related Lung Disease Debate

Vitamin E acetate, terpene content and the illicit market are in the spotlight, but plenty of unanswered questions remain.

September 10, 2019

At Diego Pellicer in Denver, Colo., dispensary employees are confronting the question that’s landed on the doorsteps of all cannabis businesses in recent weeks: How should the legal cannabis industry engage the sudden rise in vaping-related illnesses in the U.S.?

With five reported deaths, more than 450 other cases of vaping-related illnesses in 33 states and a rollicking series of headlines in national news media, cannabis business owners and scientists are educating a general public—and an industry—that’s not yet entirely informed on vape technologies, the bioactivities of molecules and compounds in vape products and the disparities between the legal and illicit cannabis markets (and the popular e-cigarette market).

Nick Jack, chief retail officer of Diego Pellicer, says that it’s not so much the potential sales hit that has his company worried—rather, it’s the public education gap that’s become clear this summer.

“We are working with our staff to ensure they understand the testing and regulatory procedures that recreational and medical cannabis oil companies must go through before their products are available on our shelves,” Jack says. “It’s important that we’re able to educate the consumer on product safety and regulatory guidelines that help reduce the chance of an unsafe product reaching the market.”
