Andrew Glashow, President and COO of CLS Holdings, stated: “Our records continue to accumulate.

“Also in November, we completed the first phase of our buildout and licensing of our new, state-of-the-art extraction and production facility.  This facility allows us to produce our own THC oil for use in all City Trees branded products sold through more than 40 dispensaries throughout Nevada. We also anticipate partnering with 3rd party organizations interested in having their products manufactured at our newly licensed state of the art facility.”

Operational Highlights

●      For two and a half days in November, Oasis Cannabis was closed in order to complete its third expansion of the year, highlights of which include the following:

o   Available retail space increased from 1,750 square feet to 2,000 square feet.

o   Number of point of sale systems increased from four to ten.

o   A dedicated express checkout line was added.

o   Reopened in time for Black Friday, our single biggest day ever with more than 1,000 customers.

●      In November 2019, the Company completed phase 1 of the buildout and licensing of its conversion and extraction facilities in North Las Vegas, Nevada. As a result, the Company is now in a position to manufacture its own THC oil in house for City Trees and other customers.

MJBizCon

•  On December 11-13, 2019, the Company will be presenting at the MJBizCon, the largest gathering of cannabis business professionals in the world with more than 35,000 attendees.  Please visit our City Trees booth C8649 at the conference.
