OSL Holdings Developing Next Generation Comprehensive Ad Supported B2B & B2C Legal Cannabis Marketplace Website And App
YARDLEY, Pa., Oct. 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- OSL Holdings Inc. (OTCQB: OSLH) ("OSL"), a socially conscious business model dedicated to consumer advocacy, social activism and the advancement of civil liberties through the power of commerce, announced today the development of a multi-tier, on-line cross platform social network and information repository solution that will enable legal marijuana dispensaries and hydroponic gardening supply retailers to manage marketing, lead generation, and retail discovery. The platform is expected to become an ad supported online extension of our recently acquired Go Green Hydroponics retail operations and other vertical venders and will enable local and hyper local search with advanced querying capabilities when it is expected to launch in the second quarter of fiscal 2015. Designs for the platform include a comprehensive B2B and B2C portal and a social network with planned user generated content features. We plan to launch both a web based and mobile platform that will enable dispensaries and patrons to manage and search while on the go. Planned community and social features will allow patrons to share experiences and provide feedback to the dispensaries and community.
Bob Rothenberg, OSL's Chief Executive Officer said, "We are very excited to commence the development of what we believe will be the country's premier cross platform social network and informational repository in the legal medical marijuana vertical." Steve Gormley, OSL's Chief Business Development Officer said, "We have engaged a leading team that includes engineers, designers and developers with proven success in the business and expect to be able to launch our website and app in roughly 6 months." Gormley went on to say, "This is a space currently dominated by Weedmaps. We intend on offering consumers a deeper, more robust and more user friendly option."
According to published reports by Justin Hartfield, Chief Executive Officer for Weedmaps.com, a privately held company founded in 2008, he claims that Weedmap's annual revenues have grown from $4 million in 2010 to over $30 million in 2014.
