In consideration, Mota Ventures, which aims to become a vertically integrated global CBD brand, issued 21 million of its own shares to the vendor.
Folium is a Health Canada licensed cannabis cultivator and is expanding its current facility, via a further second phase of work, on Vancouver Island, and is aiming to produce a high quality and consistent cannabis product through its facilities, Mota noted.
"Canada has been a pioneer in legalization and early adoption of cannabis for both recreational and medical purposes," Ryan Hoggan, CEO of Mota Ventures said in a statement.
"This equity position in a well-capitalized licensed producer provides Mota with a sound financial investment in the sector," he added.
