Crop Infrastructure Corp (CSE:CROP) announced today that its tenant grower, Hempire Company LLC, has received final approval for an additional 20,000 square feet of recreationally licensed canopy space from CalCannabis Cultivation Licensing, a division of the California Department of Food and Agriculture, for its Humboldt campus in California, as announced on May 9, 2018.

Currently, the company's Humboldt campus consists of an operational 10,000-square-foot medicinal cannabis greenhouse facility. The new approval means it now has an additional 20,000 square feet of recreational licensed canopy.

"With the approval of this additional 20,000 square feet, the Humboldt campus will triple in size and tenant production capacity. Crop's portfolio of cannabis infrastructure assets includes two Washington State facilities as well as the Humboldt campus in California, the largest cannabis market in the world," said Crop Infrastructure director and chief executive officer Michael Yorke. 

"Management will continue to aggressively pursue new worldwide opportunities and expand its portfolio of tenant growers and infrastructure assets in strategic licensed jurisdictions."
