DORADO, Puerto Rico, Sept. 05, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GSRX Industries Inc. (OTCQB: GSRX) (“GSRX” or the “Company”) announced today that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Green Spirit Mendocino, LLC, d/b/a The Green Room, a medicinal and adult-use cannabis retailer in Point Arena, California (“The Green Room”), is the only cannabis dispensary in Mendocino County which stocks and sells Dragonglass Flake and Bake™ (“Dragonglass”). Currently available at select dispensaries in San Francisco, the exclusive agreement with The Green Room marks the first time the product will be available outside the Bay Area.
Dragonglass is a sublingual/edible flake made using superfood, and is based on a proprietary, patent-pending method of producing water-based edibles that are free of sugar, fat, alcohol, and synthetics. GSRX believes that Dragonglass is a unique product in a market flooded with sugar-based and high-calorie products, and demand for the product has remained high since its introduction in 2017. Available in new, California-compliant packaging, Dragonglass is sold in 100mg THC and 100mg CBD versions. Dragonglass is manufactured by Spirulinex, LLC, a majority-owned subsidiary of GSRX.
Headquartered in San Francisco, Spirulinex extracts and processes concentrates using non-volatile methods, then processes and formulates products for adult consumers. Spirulinex has developed all-natural, proprietary methods of suspending cannabinoids in water to create aqueous solutions, thereby eliminating the need to use oils, butter or synthetic lipids. Spirulinex offers cannabinoid products for which scientific dosage recommendations are included for consistency and quality assurance. Spirulinex has a robust patent portfolio, and continues to aggressively pursue protection for its innovations.
Spirulinex was co-founded by Ali Jamalian and Dr. Sarah Rodriguez. Dr. Rodriguez, Spirulinex’s Chief Scientist, is a leading researcher with experience in strain development and metabolic engineering for terpene production, restructuring of carbon metabolic fluxes, cellular metabolic analysis, bio-separation, and fermentation engineering. She holds a PhD from the University of California at Berkeley.
Located in Mendocino County’s Point Arena, The Green Room has experienced a record increase in sales since GSRX acquired the dispensary in late spring. The Company recently reported average daily sales during the second quarter increased 161%, as compared to average daily sales during the first quarter of 2018 (Green Room Sales Increase).
