With Grant’s background and credentials, we are very pleased to have appointed one of Canada’s leading executives.”

“Harvest One is a unique opportunity to apply my experience to a complex business with a portfolio of brands in the emerging regulated cannabis industry,” Grant Froese commented. “Harvest One has a platform for success through its three distinct business units in Canada and internationally. We will continue to build Harvest One as a house of brands, aiming to bring the most sophisticated cannabis products to the global medical and recreational markets. I'm also pleased to be immediately strengthening the Harvest One team with the appointment of Andrew Kain, a skilled, trusted executive that I've had the pleasure of working with in the past.”
