Principal Products and Brands
The company has established strong brands for use in the adult-use recreational cannabis market and seeks to create a portfolio of diverse brands and products. The company’s adult-use recreational cannabis brand strategy reflects its views about current and potential consumers, the industry, future product development and opportunities for growth.
Adult Use Recreational Cannabis
The company developed its portfolio of adult-use recreational cannabis brands to specifically meet the diverse needs of Canada’s adult-use recreational cannabis consumers. Based on a robust consumer segmentation study, Organigram has and will continue to develop a competitive range of brands designed to deliver profitable growth across the largest product categories. The suite of brands includes SHRED, Holy Mountain, Big Bag O’ Buds, Monjour, Trailblazer, Edison Cannabis Co., and Tremblant. Each brand is unique to a specific consumer segment with a product offering designed to meet the needs of its target audience, as described below, including potencies, cannabinoid content and price point.
Medical Cannabis
The company offers a broad range of medical cannabis products in Canada and abroad through the company’s international business partners. The company’s range of products available in the medical channel includes whole flower, milled flower, pre-rolls, infused pre-rolls, vapes, gummies & concentrates.
Distribution and Sales
Adult-Use Recreational Cannabis
The company is authorized by its licence for wholesale distribution of adult-use recreational cannabis and derivative products in all provinces of Canada and in Yukon, and has supply arrangements in different forms with the responsible government agency or equivalent in each province and territory.
Medical Cannabis
The company distributes medical cannabis through MyMedi.ca, an online medical cannabis platform managed by Avicanna Inc. The online medical cannabis platform offers a wide range of medical products and dedicated customer service. The company’s prices for cannabis and derivative products vary based on growth time, strain yield and market prices. The company may from time to time offer volume discount or promotional pricing. The company is also authorized for wholesale shipping of medical cannabis plant cuttings and dried flower to other licensed producers. The company is able to ship wholesale medical cannabis products to certain international jurisdictions by obtaining the required approvals and permits from Health Canada and the applicable regulatory authority of the purchaser.
Cannabis Edibles
Effective October 17, 2019, the Cannabis Regulations permit the sale to the public of edible cannabis products and concentrates through medical and adult-use consumer channels. Following the investment in a high-speed, high-capacity, fully automated production line, the company began shipping edibles to retailers across Canada in February 2020. The company subsequently began evaluating future prospects for its chocolate production line based on its declining utilization and declining revenues from its chocolate output and ultimately made the strategic decision to cease manufacturing chocolate products. Following the acquisition of EIC, the company launched SHRED’ems cannabis-infused gummies and Monjour, a gummy brand focusing on CBD-forward products. The previously-discussed FAST technology developed by the CoE that was announced by the company in August 2024 is anticipated to improve the company’s edible cannabis products by decreasing the average time required for the effects of edible cannabis to be felt by a consumer.
Cannabis Extracts and Concentrates
The company continues to expand its vape offering by having introduced a liquid diamond vape cartridge, as well as Shred 510 vapes featuring distillate and botanical terpene blends. Following the acquisition of LAU, the company established a robust hash innovation pipeline, expanded the Tremblant hash brand nationally via new higher potency hash temple balls, and introduced other new hash products into the market.
Cannabis Vapour Products
In March 2023, Organigram entered into an agreement with Greentank for the development and commercialization of novel vapour heating technology. The company is expecting commercialization to begin in late fiscal year 2025. The Greentank hardware is expected to deliver to the consumer greater vapour volume, stronger flavour and cannabinoid performance through improved and smaller particle size in vapour with their new heating engine.
International Customers
Outside of Canada, the company serves several international markets via exports and seeks to augment sales channels internationally over time. Future international shipments are contingent upon the timing and receipt of regulatory approval from Health Canada, including obtaining an export permit, as well as timing and receipt of regulatory approval from the purchaser's regulatory authority, including obtaining an import permit.
Operations
The company has assembled a capable management team with significant experience in the management and growth of successful enterprises. Presently, a significant portion of the company’s revenue is derived from the sale of cannabis, cannabis product and cannabis plant material produced, cultivated and/or processed by the company at its Moncton Campus. The company grows cannabis at its Moncton Campus for the purposes of sale and distribution of finished products. The Moncton Campus has 115 grow rooms with staggered cultivation cycles averaging 14 weeks per cycle. As the grow rooms are all indoor, seasonality has negligible impact on cultivation cycles.
In July 2022, the company acquired the Winnipeg Facility which it had been previously leasing. EIC held the EIC Licence issued under the Cannabis Act, which was transitioned to be held by OGI as a result of the Amalgamation. The company is producing cannabis-infused gummies and cannabis-infused lozenges at the Winnipeg Facility.
In September 2023, the company completed the expansion of the Lac-Supérieur Facility adding four hybrid greenhouses increasing the cultivation footprint to 14,500 sq. ft. The Lac-Supérieur Facility is destined to produce craft flower with a staggered cultivation cycle averaging 11-12 weeks per cycle as the LacSupérieur Facility receives clones ready for transplant.
Cultivation
The company’s breeding and phenotyping program continues to produce a robust and strategic flower pipeline, with significant progress made to increase the quality, potency and terpene concentrations of the company’s flower portfolio. Several large-scale garden strategies have begun implementation, including start-up of seed based manufacturing, move to segment plant care based on cultivar and portfolio value, and ongoing introduction of improved irrigation practices, specific LED light recipes and crop cycle changes to improve quality output while reducing crop cycle, drying and curing time.
In May 2023, Organigram entered into an innovation agreement with Phylos to develop and operationalize F1 hybrid seed based production, which scaled the company’s production by up to 17% of harvests in FY 2024, significantly reducing the garden cost profile while improving economics on certain milled and ready to consume brands in the portfolio. In addition, Organigram has further capitalized on the investment with the launch of first to market, whole flower THCV offerings in both edible and vapour categories. Organigram expects to expand the offering with further development of a range of novel high potency rare cannabinoids via the proprietary, patent protected cultivation methods developed by Phylos.
History
The company was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) in 2010. It was formerly known as Organigram Holdings Inc. and changed its name to Organigram Global Inc. in March 2025.
