CEO and Chair of the Board Tyler Robson last spoke with New Cannabis Ventures in October 2019, and he checked in to discuss The Valens Company rebrand, its business model evolution and acquisitions.
Robson, President Jeff Fallows, CFO Chris Buysen and COO Chantel Popoff make up the core of the leadership team.
Valens may have started as an extractor, but it has evolved to become much more in-depth than that.
In the Canadian market, Valens has approximately 100,000 square feet operating with another 35,000 square feet coming online in June.
Green Roads distributes to more than 7,000 retail locations, and Valens will use its IP and innovation to double down on manufacturing, according to Robson.
In the past, Valens has been focused on the B2B segment, but it will begin to focus on the B2C category as a part of its U.S.
In addition to its North American footprint, Valens is exporting globally.
But, Robson sees the Green Roads acquisition as the first piece of the puzzle in the company’s strategic move into the U.S.
