TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwired – April 5, 2016) – Supreme Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company” or “Supreme”) (CSE:SL) (OTC PINK:SPRWF) is pleased to announce it has established a strategic alliance (the “Strategic Alliance”) with top international cannabis seed developer Dinafem Seeds (“Dinafem”) based in San Sebastian, Spain. Since 2002, Dinafem has been a global leader in the innovation and standardization of cannabis genetics including pioneering many feminized and auto-flowering varieties.

Dinafem has won numerous awards at cannabis competitions including: Treating Yourself, (Canada); the Highlife Cup (Holland); and Spannabis (Spain). Dinafem has also made considerable strides in the development of CBD rich cannabis varieties, offering THC:CBD ratios of 1:1, 1:2 and 1:3 as well as low THC high CBD varieties. As a result of the Strategic Alliance, Supreme will benefit from Dinafem’s decades of research, development and product expertise.

“We are excited Supreme will be utilizing our genetics in their hybrid greenhouse,” stated Mr. Gorospe, CEO of Dinafem. “Supreme’s commitment to producing high quality, sun grown cannabis is aligned with our own commitment to producing the best genetics. Dinafem is focused on market leading innovation in cannabis genetics, striving to maximize the potential of each variety. With each innovation we create seeds optimized for output, potency and consumer appeal. Supreme understands the importance of starting from seed and the value of future genetic stock. We look forward to working with Supreme to introduce our genetics to the Canadian market.”
Pursuant to the Strategic Alliance, Dinafem will supply Supreme’s wholly owned subsidiary AMMCan, with high quality cannabis seeds to be utilized in Supreme’s 7 acre (342,000 sq. ft.) facility in Kincardine, Ontario. Dinafem will also supply Supreme with exclusive ongoing consulting services.
“I have always admired Dinafem as a leader in the international cannabis market,” stated John Fowler, CEO of Supreme. “Dinafem’s commitment to quality and innovation is a perfect match for Supreme. It is critical to start from seed to ensure our plants are ideally suited to our hybrid greenhouse and our business objectives. This creates long-term proprietary value, as genetics selected this year can be produced for decades. Working with Dinafem we ensure we start with the best seeds. In addition, the consulting services will drastically shorten our learning curve. I’m eager to see what Dinafem and Supreme will produce together.”
