At a time when established Cannabis stocks are struggling due to an inability to actually deliver real businesses, Hollister Biosciences (HOLL:CSE) has been quietly building a real business, products, revenue and customers in 220 of California’s 600 dispensaries …. and growing, including California’s #1 hash infused pre-roll “Hashbone”. Â
If that was all Hollister had going, they’d be in great shape with a super bright future and better than most Cannabis companies (small and large) who can’t even get product out the door. Â
BUT THERE’S MORE – THE $20,000,000 ACQUISITION THAT COMES WITH $CDN 16.4M REVENUE & $CDN 2.48M EBITDA Â
Hollister has closed their purchase of Venom Extracts, one of Arizona’s largest producers of Award-Winning Medical Cannabis Distillate. Just how good is Venom? In 2019, Venom generated $CDN 16.4M in revenue and $CDN 2.48M EBITDA in 2019 … and all of that was just from the state of Arizona. Â
In this amazing interview, Venom Founder Jake Cohen discusses Venom’s aggressive plans to expand its brand and success into other states, including California as it benefits from Hollister’s distribution into 220 dispensaries. Right now, some of you may be thinking, “yeah but everybody thinks they are going to expand” …. but Jake’s words, as well as those of Alex Somjen (President) and Carl Saling (CEO) are backed up by action.  Â
Specifically, a significant chunk of Venom’s acquisition shares kicks in if/when revenues hit $CDN 30,000 and $CDN 40,000 …. by December 31, 2021. In my experience, companies joining forces don’t include such terms if there isn’t a reasonable expectation for hitting those numbers. It doesn’t guarantee it but you can bet they have good reason to believe Venom sales will get to one or both of those numbers in just 21 months from now. Â
If you’re looking for Cannabis companies that are going to survive and thrive over this next decade, then grab your favourite beverage and watch this great interview with Carl Saling, Alex Somjen and Jacob Cohen.

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, Hollister is using its essential business standing and facility to source and produce hand sanitizer for its local community.
The CEO of Hollister Biosciences Inc, Carl Saling, shared: “The community of Hollister, CA is near and dear to our hearts, and as the first licensed cannabis company in the city of Hollister, CA, I feel that we must do whatever we can to help.
VANCOUVER, March 24, 2020 –Hollister Biosciences Inc.(CSE: HOLL, FRANKFURT: HOB, OTC: HSTRF) (the “Company” or “Hollister“) – through its Hollister Cannabis Co division, is stepping up to manufacture and distribute a few thousand bottles of hand sanitizer to Hollister, CA.
A statewide “shelter at home” mandate has been issued for California,
putting a halt to non-essential manufacturing and delay in
distribution. Cannabis retailers and manufacturers are considered
essential businesses in California. In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, Hollister is using its essential business standing and facility to source and produce hand sanitizer for its local community.
Hollister will be giving its first batch of hand sanitizer to the Hollister food bank. Multiple batches of hand sanitizer are expected to be delivered to community organizations over the next few weeks.
The CEO of Hollister Biosciences Inc, Carl Saling, shared: “The community of Hollister, CA is near and dear to our hearts, and as the first licensed cannabis company in the city of Hollister, CA, I feel that we must do whatever we can to help.
It infuriated me seeing companies price gouging much needed items,
such as hand sanitizer. I am all for making money, but not at the
expense of playing on people’s fears during a time of crisis. We just
had to act.
We are going to focus on donating to the facilities that are often
overlooked: the food bank, nursing homes, rehabilitation centers, and
homeless shelters, where some of the most vulnerable are sheltering in
place.
I am calling all business owners to step up in this time of crisis and do whatever you can to help your local community.”

Adam Smith is a bad ass Green Beret with nearly 17 years of service to his country …. who put a gun in his mouth when his PTSD simply became too much to handle. Pharma drugs prescribed by doctors were actually making his problems worse and he had nowhere to turn.  Â
More than just a story, watch his 2-minute video within our video interview with him and Hollister Biosciences CEO, Carl Saling. Be prepared. Â
Thankfully, a fellow soldier told him about CBD and Smith experienced firsthand how CBD can help retired and active-duty (military and law enforcement) ease their physical and mental issues – especially those who suffer from PTSD and TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury).  Â
The results were so dramatic that Smith’s new mission was to get CBD into the hands of as many soldiers as possible. He founded Tactical Relief and the rest is history. Tactical Relief creates, promotes and sells the highest quality and “most patriotic” CBD oils in the country.  Â
Yes, it’s a great business with tremendous potential for exponential growth. But profit isn’t driving this partnership between Smith and Carl Saling, who himself became very emotional when he shared his family’s deep military roots …. and struggles with PTSD. Â
As an investor in Hollister, you’ll love what this partnership can do for the company. As a human, you’ll love what this partnership is going to do for retired and active-duty military personnel. As a host, I’ve never been more proud of two guests on AGORACOM. Â
Sit back and be prepared to watch the most powerful interview ever produced by AGORACOM.  Â
Please share this video on your social networks so that military personnel and their families can discover Tactical Relief. Â
