WAKEFIELD, Mass., Nov. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Curaleaf Holdings, Inc. (CSE: CURA) (OTCQX: CURLF) ("Curaleaf" or the "Company"), a leading U.S. provider of consumer products in cannabis, announced today the launch of its NANO Chews product in the Florida market. Curaleaf's sugar-free, fast-acting NANO Chews offer a reliable and consistent cannabis experience and are available at Curaleaf's retail locations across the state, including the two newest dispensaries which recently opened in Pensacola and Panama City.
Utilizing nano-emulsion technology, Curaleaf NANO Chews are ideal for patients seeking a faster onset time and more calibrated experience. With 5mg of THC per piece, NANO Chews are infused with small, water-soluble cannabinoids. This technology allows patients to feel the product's full effects in roughly half of the time of a traditional edible. NANO Chews are typically preferred among patients who are looking for quicker relief than traditional edibles offer. Curaleaf NANO Chews are available in the sugar-free flavor of Arctic Berry at launch, with additional flavors to follow, and Classic Chews, a more traditional edible, are also expected to launch in Florida in the coming weeks. Per Florida state regulations, the product does not contain any natural or artificial color additives.
Florida's Department of Health officially authorized medical applications of edibles in September. Prior to the announcement, Curaleaf released a selection of premium products in Florida, including first-to-market Sublingual Tablets, Select Elite Live cartridges, and RSO. Since then, the Company has debuted both NANO Drops and Live Blends in Florida, all of which cater to a variety of patient preferences.
"We're thrilled to bring NANO Chews to Florida," said Joe Bayern, President of Curaleaf. "This is the next step in delivering true innovation to the market. After receiving incredible feedback from patients in states where NANO Chews have already launched, we are confident that Floridians who've waited nearly four years for edibles will embrace a new kind of cannabis experience with NANO Chews."
Florida is an increasingly fast-growing medical marijuana market in the United States with over 430,000 registered medical patients. Curaleaf currently operates 33 dispensaries in Florida and 95 dispensaries nationwide.
