DENVER, CO / ACCESSWIRE / June 25, 2019 / International Cannabrands Inc. (CSE: JUJU) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that its 51% subsidiary La Vida Verde, Inc., has entered into an agreement with Bettie Janes, LLC to further expand sales efforts throughout Northern California.

Bettie Janes is a women-owned and operated sales force based in San Francisco, CA., comprised of eight reps with a client list of 100+ dispensaries and a larger network of 200 retailers in Northern California.

Eric Hara, CEO of La Vida Verde commented: "We believe in the team behind Bettie Janes and we look forward to working alongside them to expand our retail footprint."

Varina Sims, CEO of Bettie Janes added: "Consistent product sales can be a company's most challenging task due to the increasing level of competition and the difficulty of securing facetime with buyers. We've established strong working relationships with buyers throughout California and will leverage our network to ensure LVV's family of brands gets the best exposure possible to the purchasing decision makers."

LVV continues to expand its sales and marketing efforts in Q2, and management believes it can materially increase market share in existing and new territories within California while enhancing profitability.

In addition, LVV received its Annual Distribution License in California to June 2020. Bryce Berryessa, President of LVV explained: "While the barrier to entry for temporary licenses in California was low (only local authorization was needed), the process for obtaining an annual license is much more intensive and requires lengthy disclosures, approval of processes, and multiple inspections by state officials. We believe that securing this annual license gives us a strong competitive advantage in the regulated market as we speculate that many of the temporary licenses issued will not be converted to annuals."
