Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - April 27, 2020) - Wabi Sabi Brands Ltd. (the "Company" or "Wabi Sabi"), an Alberta-based manufacturer of fine cannabis edible confections, is pleased to announce that Health Canada has issued the Company a Standard Processing License under the Cannabis Act and related regulations for its world class cannabis edible manufacturing facility in Calgary, Alberta.

"We are thrilled to have received our Standard Processing License for our manufacturing facility - the entire Wabi Sabi team has been working very hard to reach this key milestone and we are extremely excited to be one step closer to supplying the Canadian cannabis recreational market with our premium artisan edibles," said Todd Pringle, President & CEO of Wabi Sabi. "We want to thank the Health Canada staff for their dedication and efforts while working from home during the COVID-19 crisis - Health Canada employees initially contacted us on Easter Sunday, which is above and beyond. We will now focus on formalizing supply arrangements with Alberta-based licensed producers and look forward to hiring hard-working Albertans to help us make cannabis 2.0 products."

The quality of the Company's Standard Processing License application reflects the discipline and rigorous approach Wabi Sabi applies to all aspects of its business.
