VIVO Cannabis Inc. (TSXV: VIVO, OTCQX: VVCIF) is pleased to announce that it has signed a multi-year agreement with national cannabis distributor, Green Hedge Education & Distribution Services Ltd.


Green Hedge will be VIVO’s Canadian sales and distribution partner, providing full coverage to licensed cannabis wholesalers and retailers across Canada. 

“After a disciplined selection process, VIVO is thrilled to partner with Green Hedge, a results-driven recreational cannabis distribution team, to represent our key brands, including FIRESIDE™, Lumina™ and Canna Farms™,” commented Barry Fishman, CEO of VIVO. 

Green Hedge is led by Andrew von Teichman, an industry-recognized sales and marketing entrepreneur. Mr. von Teichman’s experience includes founding Von Terra Enterprises Ltd, a manufacturer’s representation agency, that has earned six LCBO partnership awards. His previous experience includes three years as the Ontario region sales lead at Constellation Brands and being the co-owner of a Canadian winery.

“We are excited to enter the adult-use, recreational cannabis market as a first-mover, providing VIVO with a socially responsible, national distribution solution that we believe will provide a competitive advantage when recreational cannabis is legalized on October 17, 2018,” said Mr. von Teichman, CEO of Green Hedge.
