"When we embarked on our journey to develop our adult-use brands, we were committed to truly understanding what cannabis users would look like after legalization," said Megan McCrae, Vice President of Marketing at Aphria. "We undertook extensive research to understand each segment of the market and build a broad portfolio of brands that would speak to each of those varied and diverse groups. This consumer-centric approach is the cornerstone of every one of our thoughtfully-created brands and will continue to drive our ongoing product development and brand positioning."

The following are the first in-house brands from Aphria to be made available for sale in the adult-use market:

Solei Sungrown Cannabis ("Solei")

Solei is designed for current and novice users and pairs an assortment of carefully curated strains and product formats with different experiences.

RIFF

RIFF is a community and cannabis brand that is co-created by the Co.LAB, a collective of creators and artists who love a good joint effort. The brand will have high potency offerings available for experienced users.

Good Supply

Good Supply is a value-priced brand without the frills, designed for the everyday cannabis user.

Goodfields

Goodfields is for current and new cannabis users interested in quality cannabis from a trusted source, cultivated with care.

Broken Coast Cannabis

Complementing Aphria's in-house brands, the Company's subsidiary Broken Coast Cannabis Ltd. ("Broken Coast") is a multi-award-winning craft grower that delivers a premium product and provides consumers with an opportunity to access a brand synonymous with the legacy of B.C.-bud. Broken Coast's craft cannabis is grown on the shores of the Salish Sea in small batches by choice, using single-strain growing rooms. All flower is hand-trimmed and slow-cured ensuring the optimal cannabis experience.

"I'm incredibly proud of our product development, manufacturing and marketing teams for their passion, hard work and dedication to developing brands that we are confident will resonate with consumers across a broad range of distinct segments," said Vic Neufeld, Chief Executive Officer of Aphria. "We're entering a new chapter of this rapidly evolving industry, and we look forward to extending our leadership through continued brand and product innovation in the years to come."

Solei and RIFF will be available through online and retail stores in all ten provinces and the Yukon Territory starting on October 17, 2018. Broken Coast will also be available from online and retail stores across most markets on October 17, 2018. Good Supply and Goodfields will be available in select markets shortly following legalization.
