LAS VEGAS and VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 26, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — TAAT ™ LIFESTYLE & WELLNESS LTD. (CSE: TAAT) (OTCQB: TOBAF) (FRANKFURT: 2TP2) (the “Company” or “TAAT ™ ”) has entered into a memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) dated February 24, 2021 with Christina Lake Cannabis Corp. (“CLC”) (CSE: CLC) to develop and distribute TAAT™ for the Canadian market.

The MOU grants CLC exclusive rights to develop and distribute TAAT™ in Canada for a two-year renewable term, and provides for budgets, schedules, and contributions of both parties for each stage of product development to be agreed upon by way of written agreements to set out specific stipulations for each stage. After launching TAAT™ in Ohio in Q4 2020 as well as its U.S. online store on February 17, 2021, the Company has captured the interest of numerous smokers aged 21+ in the United States who are now smoking TAAT™ as opposed to traditional tobacco cigarettes.

The Company selected Ohio as its initial market for several strategic reasons, with a principal criterion being the state’s ideal population size for an early-stage product launch ( i.e. , large enough to build meaningful market share, small enough to contain).

VIDEO – TAAT Lifestyle & Wellness $TAAT.ca $TOBAF Launches ” Beyond Tobacco™️” In 39 States To Become The “Beyond Meat” Of Cigarette Industry

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:17 AM on Wednesday, February 17th, 2021
TAAT

Beyond Meat has become an $11 BILLION company by creating products designed to emulate beef.  

Non-Alcoholic beer is now an $18 BILLION market by creating products designed to emulate alcoholic beverages. 

The basis of success for each has come from delivering the experience meat eaters and beer drinkers have come to love, without any of the negative health effects.   

TAAT™ Beyond Tobacco™ mimics the experiences of cigarettes without nicotine or tobacco.  It is engineered to closely emulate the sensory components of smoking a tobacco cigarette, including tasting and smelling just like tobacco.  

E-cigarettes and vaping have failed despite existing for 15 years, driving most smokers back to cigarettes because they only perpetuate the problem of nicotine addiction while delivering a completely different user experience to smokers. 

Under the leadership of experienced veterans from the tobacco industry, including and especially Philip Morris International, TAAT™ launched in the United States just 9 weeks ago and has already received repeat orders from more than 60% of convenience and gas station customers.  

How good was this launch?  

“Out of all of the tobacco category products I have worked with, TAAT™ is an outlier in terms of the level of demand it has had in its early stages. I have launched dozens of new tobacco brands across Canada as well as in the Caribbean, and while many of the new products were reordered by retailers in their first several weeks on the market, none of them were reordered by anywhere near 60% of stores that initially carried them. …. I have confidence that we could replicate these outcomes both in Ohio and in other markets where we may introduce TAAT™ in the future.”  – TAAT Chief Revenue Officer Tim Corkum (former commercialization executive for Philip Morris International)   

How big is the market TAAT is going after?  Tobacco is used by: 

  • 34M adults in America, equating to 215 BILLION cigarettes sold in 2018
  • 1.3 billion people worldwide 

… and almost all of them aspire to leave nicotine behind.  Beyond Tobacco™ from TAAT is about to give them what they want and, if they succeed, give shareholders “Beyond Belief” returns in the next 2-3 years.

TAAT’s $TAAT.ca $TOBAF Beyond Tobacco Cigarette Attempting to Become the Next Big CPG Re-Invention

Posted by AGORACOM at 1:09 PM on Thursday, February 11th, 2021
TAAT

DALLAS, TX / ACCESSWIRE / February 11, 2021 / Imperium Group’s Shazir Mucklai had a chat with TAAT this past week.

In a world where re-invented consumer packaged goods (CPG) of perceived unhealthy or environmentally harmful products are all the rage, TAAT Lifestyle & Wellness (CNSX:TAAT)(OTCQB:TOBAF) is attempting to forge its own niche. By introducing a hemp-based substitute that mimics the experience of a traditional tobacco cigarette, the company is hoping steal market share from Big Tobacco, as well as grow sales organically.

TAAT cigarettes are formulated from a house blend of CBD-containing hemp called Beyond Tobacco™. Hemp is blended with patented ingredients and refined in such a way as to replicate the experience of a conventional tobacco cigarette-without the addictive effects of nicotine. Furthermore, some users report feeling a calming effect after using the product-potentially from the cannabidiol (CBD) content inherent to its hemp base.

Given the way re-invented products in ancillary CPG categories achieved strong consumer adoption, TAAT is seeking to replicate a similar pathway to viability. For example, tobacco’s sister industry vertical-Beer Distillers-have found success offering drinks which contain little or no alcohol.

Last year, The Conference Board of Canada’s Brewing up Benefits report stated that non-alcoholic beer accounts for 1.2% of total beer sales-increasing by more than 50% between 2013 and 2018. On a global scale, Statista report that in 2020, the global non-alcoholic beer market was valued at roughly USD$18 billion and is expected to grow at 7.5 percent CAGR (compound annual growth rate) by 2024, reaching a value of about USD$25 billion.

While non-alcoholic beer sales are just a sliver of beer brewer’s total revenues, if TAAT can replicate similar market penetration in the tobacco sector, a viable investment thesis may take root.

TAAT $TAAT.ca $TOBAF Increases Manufacturing Output by 233% to More Than 57,000 Cartons Per Month in Response to Sustained Demand in Ohio

Posted by AGORACOM at 10:39 AM on Wednesday, February 10th, 2021
  • TAAT’s flagship product is now being manufactured at a rate of more than 57,000 ten-pack cartons per month
  • This reflects a 233% increase from a production rate of 12 pallets per month to 40 pallets per month as of this week
  • Improvements to TAAT’s processing facility in Nevada enable it to produce a greater volume of Beyond Tobacco, the product’s base material

LAS VEGAS and VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 10, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — TAAT ™ LIFESTYLE & WELLNESS LTD. (CSE: TAAT) (OTCQB: TOBAF) (FRANKFURT: 2TP2) (the “Company” or “TAAT ™ ”) is pleased to announce that its flagship product TAAT ™ is now being manufactured at a rate of more than 57,000 ten-pack cartons per month (over 690,000 cartons per year), which reflects a 233% increase from a production rate of 12 pallets per month to 40 pallets per month as of this week.

This increase was prompted by sustained demand for TAAT™ in Ohio as well as anticipated demand from smokers aged 21+ in other U.S. states who will be able to purchase TAAT™ online directly from the Company when its e-commerce portal launches this quarter.

Recent improvements to the Company’s processing facility in Las Vegas, Nevada have enabled TAAT™ to produce a greater volume of Beyond Tobacco™, the product’s base material which is refined in-house using a 14-step process including a patent-pending refinement technique.

Additionally, the Company has coordinated with its contract manufacturer, who also produces cigarettes for regional and global tobacco brands, to allocate additional production bandwidth to making TAAT™ in order to maintain the current output with the ability to scale further upward as needed.
