Vireo Growth Inc., a publicly traded cannabis company based in Minneapolis, has finalized its acquisition of Proper Brands, one of the largest cannabis firms in the St. Louis area, for $102 million. This deal marks a significant expansion of Vireo’s presence in Missouri’s recreational cannabis market, which has been growing rapidly since the state legalized adult-use cannabis in 2020.
Proper Brands has established itself as a key player in Missouri, operating multiple facilities focused on the production and distribution of cannabis products. The acquisition allows Vireo to enhance its production capabilities and reach a broader customer base in the state.
According to industry reports, Missouri’s cannabis market has seen substantial growth, with sales reaching over $200 million in the first year of recreational sales alone. Vireo’s investment in Proper Brands positions the company to capitalize on this expanding market.
This acquisition is part of a broader trend in the cannabis industry, where larger companies seek to consolidate operations and expand their market share through strategic acquisitions. Vireo’s move aligns with its goal to become a leading player in the cannabis sector, both in Missouri and nationally.
With this acquisition, Vireo aims to leverage Proper Brands’ established infrastructure and customer base to drive further growth and innovation in its product offerings. The deal is expected to provide Vireo with increased revenue streams and enhance its competitive position in the industry.
