BOCA RATON, Fla., Dec. 08, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Jushi Holdings Inc. (“Jushi” or the “Company”) (CSE: JUSH) (OTCMKTS: JUSHF), a vertically integrated, multi-state cannabis operator, announced the Company’s retail brand, BEYOND / HELLO™, and Holistic Industries, one of the leading cannabis companies in the country, have collaborated to bring Garcia Hand Picked (“GHP”) to cannabis consumers in Santa Barbara. 

Starting on Tuesday, December 8, 2020, BEYOND / HELLO™ Santa Barbara will make GHP, a cannabis collection developed by Holistic Industries in partnership with the Garcia Family to honor and celebrate the legacy of Jerry Garcia, available for purchase. GHP cannabis strains available at BEYOND / HELLO™ Santa Barbara include: Chemdog (Sativa), SFV OG (Indica), Fire OG (Hybrid), among others. In addition, other GHP merchandise apparel and accessories will also be available for purchase at Jushi’s flagship retail location in California.

“We’re excited to pay homage to the legacy of Jerry Garcia, the counterculture icon and frontman of the psychedelic rock band, the Grateful Dead,” said Jushi Creative Director Andreas Neumann. “Garcia Hand Picked products, merchandise and accessories resonate Garcia’s values and beliefs, many of which are not only relevant, but continue to be echoed across the cannabis movement today. We’re confident our customers will fall in love with these new products because they deliver consistent, powerful results just like a ‘77 Help>Slip>Franklin’s. Over the coming year, we look forward to bringing our customers more unique brand experiences and rolling out new partnerships and collaborations with other artists like my friends from the ‘stoner rock’ band, Queens of the Stone Age.”
