Maple Leaf Green World Inc. Receives Conditional Listing Approval from Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE) and Appoints New VP of Marketing

CALGARY, Alberta, May 26, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Maple Leaf Green World Inc. (“Maple Leaf” or the “Company”) (NEO: MGW, OTCQB: MGWFF) is pleased to announce that it has received conditional approval from the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) for the listing (“Listing”) of the shares of the Company (the “Shares”) subject to satisfying the listing requirements of the CSE.

Trading of the Company’s shares is expected to commence on June 1, 2021 after filing of certain customary conditions required by the CSE. Upon completion of the final listing requirements, the Company’s common shares will be delisted from the NEO Exchange.

The Company is also pleased to welcome Mr. Leonard Davis to lead its Sales & Marketing team as V.P. of Marketing. Mr. Davis played a pivotal role in orchestrating the Swissx cultivation partnership agreement as announced in the press release dated May 13, 2021.

Mr. Davis has been in the soft goods manufacturing and sourcing business for over thirty years, assisting various companies to streamline process, increase product quality and distribution. In January 2018, Mr. Davis co-founded AIP2020, a hemp based business in California, where he was COO and was responsible for manufacturing, development and marketing. Within the first 3 months, AIP2020 built a revenue stream of USD $100,000 per month selling flower and pre-rolls. After adding edibles, the revenue jumped to USD $150,000 within 2 months.

Mr. Davis’s experiences led him to operate independently as a consultant where he shares his expertise in manufacturing, sourcing and development by constructing a framework that enables growth in both sales and profits. The Hemp industry is one of the fastest growing segments in the US and it is projected to reach USD $16B by 2027. Mr. Davis brings his passion, collaborative spirit and innovative mind set to a fast growing hemp industry.

“I had the pleasure of touring Maple Leaf’s farm and discussing the operation with their management team. I was quite impressed with their setup and what they have achieved so far. They have a great product and I have some ideas that I believe can help elevate their presence in the market place. I feel comfortable with an initial annual revenue projection of USD $1-5M,” says Leonard Davis.

“We are excited to have Mr. Davis join our sales and marketing team. His extensive experience in marketing and product development will expedite our sales goals and add great value to our management team. Welcome aboard!” said Raymond Lai, President & CEO of Maple Leaf.
