CRESCO LABS LAUNCHES GOOD NEWS BRAND IN PENNSYLVANIA WITH NEW SWEET TROCHES

Cresco Labs Inc. has launched its Good News brand in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Good News's first product, Sweet Troches (troh-kees), is a sublingual form offered in six flavours with 10 milligrams tetrahydrocannabinol. It is available to purchase at all Sunnyside locations and other dispensaries in the state.

"We've demonstrated repeatedly our ability to build our core brands and core products in new markets to meet market conditions while also maintaining our strong No. 1 share positions," said Charlie Bachtell, chief executive officer and co-founder of Cresco Labs. "Our branded portfolio is holding strong with the top share position in Pennsylvania. We have many targeted strategies in place to continue to grow our share in the state, such as launching smart innovations like Sweet Troches from Good News. So far, we've seen a strong reception from patients and caregivers for our Wonder Wellness Co. Mini Troches, and we're pleased to offer more dosing options from our Good News brand."

Sweet Troches from Good News is a line of simple, easy-to-use medical marijuana products intended to be dissolved in the mouth. They are made with distillate oil and live sand with a white rice flour coating. Patients and caregivers can try one of six flavours: watermelon, white grape, berry, orange, peach and black cherry. Each Sweet Troche from Good News has 10 mg THC per dose.

In April, Cresco Labs introduced its first Troche from its Wonder Wellness Co. brand. Called Mini Troches, these are offered in relax, shine and sleep cannabinoid effects in low-dose formulations with approachable flavours and botanical extracts.
