LOS ANGELES, CA, Oct. 01, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — via NEWMEDIAWIRE – Agritek Holdings, Inc. (OTC: AGTK) www.AgritekHoldings.com, a fully integrated, active real estate investor for the cannabis sector and consultant for multiple cannabis brands, today announced the Company has executed an Operations and Licensing Agreement with Apex Solutions Inc., located in Oakland, California. Apex, founded in 2018, is a licensed operator and manufacturer of multiple award winning Cannabis Cup brands distributed throughout the state of California.

The Agreement allows Agritek to fund the infrastructure of Apex up to two-million ($2,000,000) dollars for expansion of operations and distribution of existing brands as well as the acquisition of new brands manufactured and distributed by Apex. Agritek Holdings will receive immediate revenue from all non-THC cannabis related orders and sales including product packaging, equipment lease financing, real estate rent, payroll financing, and new brand royalties.

Scott Benson, CEO of Agritek Holdings, stated, “With the additional funding and product packaging resources provided by Agritek Holdings and the existing reach and brand recognition of Apex throughout the state of California, we have created an immediate revenue opportunity through organic growth for Agritek. The Agreement allows us to move all product orders, packaging, payroll services and rental income to Agritek through Apex as an established leader within the regulated market of California becoming a win for both Companies. I look forward to integrating the operations of the Apex manufacturing facility and brands with Agritek Holdings as our funding and business logistics partner, merging this partnership into a highly recognized and leading operation while expanding the asset and revenue base of the new Agritek Holdings.”
