Denver, Colorado--(Newsfile Corp. - January 7, 2019) - The Pocket Shot Company (OTC Pink: PCKK), a ten-year-old publicly traded specialty alcohol beverage distribution company based in Denver, Colorado, is pleased to announce it has completed its anticipated merger with Pure Harvest Cannabis Producers, a privately held Nevada company led by a group of cannabis industry pioneers. The merger will immediately allow Pocket Shot to enter the rapidly expanding cannabis, hemp, and CBD industry.

The post-merger company will immediately focus on developing into a multistate, seed-to-sale, vertically integrated cannabis and hemp producer and retailer under the Pure Harvest brand. The enhanced brand will now include an innovative beverage line of premium CBD infused products for energy and sports recovery.

Additionally, the Company has installed a new management team with extensive experience in the formation of start-up cannabis companies, public capital markets, as well as all business cycles of the cannabis industry. The Pure Harvest group has founded and managed multiple public cannabis companies that have achieved significant success in the markets and marketplace.

Pocket Shot's Board of Directors has elected Sterling Scott, a former Washington, D.C. regulatory attorney with significant expertise in incubating emergent and established cannabis entities, as the Executive Chairman and Director. David Lamadrid, the former president of Cannabis Life Sciences (CLSH), a Nevada based vertically integrated cannabis producer, has been elected as President, CEO, and Director.

Matt Gregarek will remain on the board of directors. Jerry Bachman, Pocket Shot founder and current president, has relinquished his position on the board, but will remain active in the operations and continue to manage the historical Pocket Shot beverage business.

"We believe the timing is ideal to start a new and innovative, science driven cannabis company," stated Mr. Lamadrid, CEO of Pure Harvest. "We are in the early growth stages of a new worldwide health and wellness industry and intend for Pure Harvest to play a significant role in that development. Our goal is to become a leader in every cycle of the medical cannabis industry and through this merger we now have in-house the talent to pursue these goals."

"We are very pleased to join forces with a powerhouse team with the knowledge, experience and successful record of Mr. Scott, Mr. Lamadrid and the entire Pure Harvest group," stated Mr. Bachman, founder of the Pocket Shot company. "Our new sports drink formulation program provides an immediate and accelerated entry to the beverage segment that can be infused with CBD and sold through existing national distribution."

Management intends to apply for a corporate name change, new trading symbol, and an up listing to the OTCQX, the highest tier of companies in the OTC Markets Group. The plan is also to apply for dual listing on the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE).

The current Pocket Shot product line features patented small, novel beverage pouches that make it easier to transport and consume alcohol than traditional glass or plastic single serving products. It can already be found in over 25 states and is sold in thousands of stores.
