Sunset Island Group Announces First Cannabis Harvest and Expansion Plans
SAN CLEMENTE, Calif., July 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- SUNSET ISLAND GROUP, INC. (OTCQB: SIGO) announced today that it is in the process of harvesting its first 4,000 square feet of grow space and that the entire run has already been pre-sold to a cannabis supplier in Southern California.
CEO T.J. Magallanes stated, "This is our first real opportunity to share our plan with the investment community, so let's get into some of the detail. First, we are set up for year round harvesting. We have staggered growth in our initial grow space in such a way that we should remain in a constant state of "harvest". A company like ours that has product available year round is an attractive resource for dispensaries across the state. We have an excellent, experienced staff including security and our team is committed to a methodical, but aggressive build out of the business over time. We are looking to scale up in the coming months by securing an additional 54,000 square feet of grow space and project a combined 66,000 square feet of grow space after our next expansion phase is completed. Total greenhouse space with this first expansion should reach 90K as processing and manufacturing space is required as well for drying, trimming, etc."
Mr. Magallanes went on to say, "Our operation is projected to generate a conservative $200 annually per square foot of grow space over time. In the short term, we are selling our first several harvests at a slight discount compared to our competitors in order to build name recognition and goodwill. Grow space across the state is at a premium due to demand so we plan to execute long term leases as part of the expansion. Several agricultural industries abandoned existing greenhouse space over the past decade and the state and local governments require the use of existing space, even those requiring retrofit before any new grow space is built. We were able to build out our first facility at a reasonable price and expect to be able to do the same with the expansion."
Mr. Magallanes finished up with, "I am very proud of our team and we are excited about our coming expansion plans. This first harvest has been a learning experience for all of us and we're already seeing ways that we can ensure improvements and increase our yield with each harvest to come. I am focused 100% on the business end of things and that will always be the case, but we had a few questions recently about our share structure, so let me address those questions at this time. We have no convertible debt and the debt currently on the books is the initial seed capital and that will be reduced in increments over time as the providers of that seed capital will be taking a small percentage of profits with each harvest. We currently have a little over 50M shares outstanding as indicated at OTCMarkets.com and we have a little over 4M in the float. The other 46M shares are owned by me and our President. We have an S-1 registration in the works that could increase the outstanding share count to as much as 70M, but from there we do not anticipate adding any additional shares to the mix as existing profits will be used for additional expansion over and above what's been discussed in this release. I hope that is helpful when making your decision on whether to invest in our company. We look forward to sharing additional updates in the near future."
