Marapharm Ventures Inc. Provides Progress Report on Washington Facility
March 6, 2018, Kelowna, BC, Marapharm Ventures Inc. (CSE: MDM) (OTXQX: MRPHF) (FSE: 2M0) (Marapharm or the Company) is pleased to announce that the rehabilitation of the cultivation site will be completed by the end of March.
Washington State Liquor Control Board recently released cannabis sales reports for October 2017, making this a record month with the generation of $142 million taxable revenue. Current market values in Washington State will enable our tier 3 tenant to recommence production and sales into this lucrative marketplace, triggering the retroactive lease revenue owed to the Company with additional generation of revenue for ancillary services.
During renovations we have worked closely with our architect and engineering partners to design one of the most advanced and environmentally friendly cannabis cultivation sites in North America. To operate in the Pacific Northwest climate the 28,000 sq. ft building has a new silicone membrane roof and the interior has been insulated with expanding, closed cell foam. Our flagship tenant AlphaPheno Inc., a tier 3 producer and processor will be able to cultivate 30,000 sq. ft of plant canopy, the maximum allowed by the license, in just 28,000 sq. ft of floor space with minimal water, power and waste.
These environmental objectives will be accomplished by leveraging several industry leading solutions: Montel Industrial Storage designed a 2-tiered mobile racking system that allows aisles to slide open, maximizing floor space and doubling our canopy in each room. PRIVA, based in Holland is the world leader in Horticultural design, automation and control. PRIVA is contracted to deliver an irrigation and disinfection system that allows for automation of nutrient delivery and a 98% capture of all water in the facility for re-use, including irrigation run-off and condensate water from all HVAC equipment. Almost 75% of our water will come from a commercial rainwater capture system designed by local sustainable civil engineering firm 2020 Engineering. Fluence BioEngineering will provide industry leading horticultural LED lighting to reduce overall energy use, enable rebates from the electric company and produce higher potency plants with shorter cycle times.
We are employing CO-GEN technology to reduce our reliance on the electrical grid. This system will use natural gas to power turbines that create energy for use in our operations. The turbine produces heat, as a by-product of energy generation, which is then captured and turned into cooling power by the HVAC System, provided by Surna, the Industry leader in indoor cultivation climate control.
Our team continues to develop the master plan for the Cannabis Campus on the 13.1-acre site. This includes civil engineering for additional buildings to house a central extraction and commercial kitchen facility for processing, additional cultivation tenants and ancillary hemp/cannabis businesses.
"These engineered solutions will produce higher quality cannabis with the lowest cost of production compared to conventional indoor cultivators and shorten our return on investment timeline. Kurt Keating Director of Operations.
