VANCOUVER, BC - Village Farms International, Inc. ("Village Farms" or the "Company") today announced that Michael DiGiglio, Chief Executive Officer, and Stephen Ruffini, Chief Financial Officer, will present at the LD 500 Virtual Conference on Thursday, September 3, 2020, at 1:20 p.m. ET.
 
During the presentation, Messrs. DeGiglio and Ruffini will discuss:
  • The success of Village Farms' majority-owned joint venture for large-scale, low-cost, high-quality cannabis production, Pure Sunfarms, which has become one of the premier Canadian cannabis suppliers, and is the top-selling brand of dried flower products in Canada's largest provincial market1. Building on its commanding market share position, Pure Sunfarms recently began shipping its first bottled oil and vape products, which will be available to consumers shortly;
  • The Company's significant opportunities in the U.S. and international CBD markets; and,
  • Why the Company, with one of the largest greenhouse footprints in the United States, alongside decades of experience as a vertically integrated supplier of consumer products to major North American grocers and "big-box" retailers, is well positioned should high-THC cannabis be federally legalized in the U.S.
A live webcast of the presentation will be available to the public on Village Farms' website (www.villagefarms.com) in the Investors section, or by going here:  https://www.webcaster4.com/Webcast/Page/2019/36585. The webcast will be archived and available for 90 days on the Company's website.
