The company also offers turnkey real estate and operational infrastructure as well as cannabis growing-related consulting services.

4Front Merger

Cannex Capital Holdings has inched a step closer to completing a business merger with 4Front Holdings on security holders approving the deal. The Canadian Securities Exchange has also conditionally approved the proposed merger.A merger of the two companies will result in a new standard of operational excellence as well as integrity in the cannabis industry. The combined company will encompass proven management and operational skills supported by large-scale indoor cultivation facilities ideal for manufacturing and branding of infused products as well as edibles.Under the terms of the agreement, 4Front CEO and Co-founder Josh Rosen is to become the CEO of the combined company as Cannex CEI Anthony Dutton takes over senior capital markets and business development role.

“This is an exciting and transformational step as 4Front and Cannex come together to realize our common objective of building a premier cannabis business focused on operational excellence and integrity across the value chain.

Massachusetts and Arizona Expansion

4front Holdings comes into the deal having strengthened its operating platform with strategic acquisitions in Massachusetts and Arizona.

I’m excited to optimize the Georgetown space and to capture a dominant market share in the Massachusetts adult-use flower and derivatives market," said Leo Gontmakher, COO of Cannex.
