Celebrating five years of growth: Tilray Brands reflects on industry leadership in Canadian cannabis

(Globe Newswire) Toronto — Tilray Brands, Inc., a leading global cannabis-lifestyle and consumer packaged goods company, is celebrating five years of remarkable growth and industry leadership in the Canadian cannabis market since legalization.

Over the past half-decade, Tilray has emerged as the most robust and leading international cannabis LP in Canada with a cannabis market share of approximately 13.4 per cent, inclusive of recent strategic acquisitions of HEXO Corp. and Truss Beverage Co.

Irwin D. Simon, chairman and CEO, Tilray Brands, Inc. said, “In the span of five years, we have come a long way and despite the many challenges we and our industry have faced, I am proud of what we have created and accomplished across our Canadian cannabis businesses including Aphria, HEXO, Truss Beverages, and Tilray Brands. Over the next five years, we look forward to working with the Canadian government to help strengthen our industry as we have plenty of learnings to capitalize on as we write the next chapter and evolution of Canadian cannabis.”

Mr. Simon continued, “In Canada, we are building the model of a safe and responsible high growth industry that other countries can learn from and emulate as cannabis legalization continues to proliferate across the globe. Tilray Brands is committed to leading the global cannabis industry in quality, innovation, brands, and consumer insight while building long-term shareholder value.”

Reflecting on the journey, Blair MacNeil, president, Tilray Canada, added, “From the outset, our mission has been deeply understanding our consumers and ensuring we develop brands and products that resonate with both the adult-use and medical markets. This consumer-centric approach has been the cornerstone of our innovation and success, guiding every decision we make and driving our continuous growth. Tilray’s strength in Canada spans across categories; we are ranked #1 in sales for cannabis flower, oils, concentrates, and THC beverages, #2 in pre-rolls, #4 in vape, and among the top 10 in all other major categories. We have grown our Canadian cannabis revenue by 16.5 per cent this past quarter alone and maintained our #1 position in leading cannabis market share.”
