Terra Tech Releases Update on Blüm Oakland Dispensary

 

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., June 20, 2016 – Terra Tech Corp. (OTCQX: TRTC) ("Terra Tech" or the "Company"), a vertically-integrated, cannabis-focused agriculture company, today announced a corporate update on its Blüm dispensary, located in Oakland, California and provided visibility into the progress of the Company strategy surrounding retail dispensaries. Sales of concentrates increased 42% in May 2016, compared to January 2016, driven by higher sales of Terra Tech's own-brand of IVXX concentrates. Sales from concentrates are the third largest contributor to Blüm Oakland revenue and are a significant growth vertical for Terra Tech.

 

Blüm Oakland is Terra Tech's high-volume, retail storefront, offering a range of flowers, edibles and concentrates to patients in the Bay Area of San Francisco. It holds over 42,000 registered patients and services close to 1,000 patients each day. Blüm Oakland also has a fully integrated supply chain, which consists of a sophisticated onsite cultivation facility and a portfolio of proprietary strains.

 

"The Blüm Oakland dispensary has displayed strong momentum since we completed the acquisition on March 31, 2016, with our diverse and expanded product lines of medical cannabis products proving to be a hit with patients," commented Derek Peterson, Terra Tech CEO. "In particular, the 'Whoopi & Maya' line of cannabis products for menstrual cramp pain by Whoopi Goldberg has attracted female patients looking for all-natural products to alleviate discomfort. Our Half Caked edible products have also been flying off the shelves, particularly the caramel popcorn and tainted butter are a huge hit that keep selling out upon arrival. Furthermore, our cultivated strain of Girl Scout Cookies is at a phenomenal level of quality we haven't seen to date, proving popular with patients looking for a high quality and potent product.

 

"Our Oakland store had a 42% increase in sales of concentrates, which is the fastest growing product line in the medical cannabis space. Most excitingly, 46% of the concentrates sold at Blüm Oakland in April and May were from our proprietary line of IVXX-branded medical cannabis products, up from 6% in January of this year. This reflects our strategy to dominate the medical cannabis market and establish ourselves as leaders in every stage of the cannabis lifecycle – from cultivation and production to retail. We've built a strong model for success based on our leading brands, and the Blüm Oakland retail location will serve as a blueprint for our other dispensaries in Nevada, giving us confidence in our long-term growth plan," concluded Mr. Peterson.
