Vancouver, British Columbia – TheNewswire – September 27th, 2022 - Luff Enterprises Ltd., (CSE:LUFF) (“LUFF” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has commenced sales on its recently acquired cannabis marketplace herbaldispatch.com (“Herbal Dispatch”).

It is expected that another 10 vendors and 170 SKUs will be added to the site in the coming weeks making Herbal Dispatch already one of the largest purveyors of medical cannabis products in Canada.

They placed a total of 859,581 orders in the same year1. Veterans Affairs Canada also reported annual medical cannabis coverage for veterans totalling $119,000,000 in fiscal 2020-2021 with it expected to grow to $321,500,000 by fiscal 2025-20262. The Company believes its capital-lean and highly-scalable business model will capture a meaningful portion of this market.

The pre-registration campaign has been overwhelmingly positive with over 32,000 engaged email recipients, 6,500 new unique accounts, and almost 1,000 members pre-registered and eligible to purchase from the site.
