Jason Ackerman, CEO and Executive Chairman of TerrAscend
Leveraging the skills of our of best-in-class operating team, we are focused on rapidly building scale in growing limited license markets.
Mr. Ackerman added, “This strategy has led to further expansion of our footprint in the northeast, including an additional 25% expansion at our Pennsylvania cultivation facility in Q3 which began selling into the market in October.
