The company products are currently available to consumers directly online and CBD For Life distributes to 750 locations weekly.

Once this transaction is closed iAnthus will also expect to repay any outstanding debt and accumulated interest for CBD For life. The amount being approximately 2.0 million US dollars in cash.
