[{"type":"text","content":"\nDORADO, Puerto Rico, July 02, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GSRX Industries Inc. (OTCQB: GSRX) (“GSRX” or the “Company”) announced today that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Point Arena Distribution, LLC (“Point Arena Distribution”) has received its Provisional Distribution License for Adult-Use and Medicinal Cannabis Products from the California Bureau of Cannabis Control.\n The Provisional License replaces the Temporary License granted to Point Arena Distribution in April and allows for the commencement of operations at the Company’s new adult-use and medicinal cannabis products distribution business in Point Arena, California.  The Type 11 license allows Point Arena Distribution to transport cannabis goods to licensed store-front and non-store front retailers, licensed manufacturers and other licensed distributors. Type 11 License distributors arrange for laboratory testing, quality assurance review of cannabis goods, packaging and labeling requirements and storage. Point Arena Distribution will engage primarily in the distribution of cannabis concentrate products related to vape cartridge filling and fulfillment, and in the manufacture of Dragonglass, the Company’s proprietary edible THC formulation, which will be produced at the same location by GSRX wholly-owned subsidiary Point Arena Manufacturing, LLC.  According to cannabis investment and market research firm Arcview, vaping accounted for 4.2% of the total legal cannabis market in 2015, capturing just $200 million in sales, yet grew to 12.9% of total legal cannabis sales in 2017 ($1.1 billion).  By 2021, Arcview predicts that vape sales will surge to a total of $5.3 billion and will account for 25% of all legal cannabis sales. The Company has signed a long-term lease for a building in Point Arena which will serve as Point Arena Manufacturing, LLC and Point Arena Distribution, LLC headquarters.  Operations will commence at the location upon completion of facility buildout.
