Cansortium Announces Opening of its Second Fluent™ Medical Marijuana Dispensary in Puerto Rico

MIAMI, Aug. 12, 2019 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Cansortium Inc. (”Cansortium” or the “Company”) (CSE: TIUM), a vertically-integrated, global provider of premium-quality medical cannabis operating under the Fluent™ brand, continues to expand its global retail footprint with the July 25 opening of a new Fluent dispensary in a prime location at the San Patricio Town Center in Calle Tabonuco, Guaynabo, Puerto Rico.

Cansortium Inc.

Cansortium’s Chief Executive Officer Jose Hidalgo noted, “The opening of our second Fluent dispensary in Puerto Rico is further evidence that we are executing our growth plan by steadily expanding our dispensary network to enhance access to our premium-quality Fluent cannabis products for medical marijuana patients in key markets. Puerto Rico has more than 92,000 certified medical marijuana patients and offers reciprocity to all medical cannabis card holders from any US state.

“In addition to our two dispensaries in Puerto Rico, we operate 15 Fluent dispensaries in Florida with plans to have 30 in operation or secured by the end of 2019, one Fluent dispensary in Pennsylvania with plans to open two more, and we offer home delivery across the entire state of Texas where we are one of only three licensed medical marijuana providers. We are excited to bring our high-quality consistently-formulated Fluent products to more customers in Puerto Rico and other key markets, and to help consumers in those markets become Fluent in the benefits of cannabis.”

The new 2,200 square-foot dispensary is the Company’s second in Puerto Rico, joining the company’s San Juan dispensary that opened in January 2018. Conveniently located in an upscale mall in San Patricio, one of the most exclusive neighborhoods along the northern coast of Puerto Rico, the location is easily accessed from the PR-2, PR-23 and PR-20 highways. In celebration of its opening, the San Patricio dispensary is offering specials during its first several weeks of operation as it builds up its inventory to represent a complete assortment of Fluent-branded products.

The Fluent brand continually strives to set the standard for premium quality, consistently-formulated cannabis products. Each of the Company’s dispensaries will carry a complete assortment of Fluent premium dried flower, and full spectrum concentrates and cartridges, as well as creams, drops, capsules and suppositories. All Fluent products in the Company’s Puerto Rican dispensaries use high-quality cannabis that is cultivated, processed and packaged in our state-of-the-art Puerto Rican facilities in strict compliance with the country’s medical marijuana regulations. For consumers, the sleek, modern dispensaries provide a warm, welcoming, professional environment, with private consultation rooms and knowledgeable staff who carefully guide patients in selecting the right products and carefully safeguard patient privacy.
