What MTL Cannabis does
MTL Cannabis is a Canadian licensed cultivator and processor of premium indoor-grown cannabis, founded in 2020 by Montreal brothers Rich and Mitch Perron. The company operates a flower-first portfolio spanning dried flower strains (Sage n' Sour, Cookies n' Cream, Strawberry n' Mintz, Jungl' Cake, Wes' Coast Kush, East Coast Dank'z, Dante'z Inferno, Gas n' Up, 91 OX), hash products (Sage n' Sour Hash, Wes' Coast Kush Hash), and prerolls (Lemon' Ball'r, Apple Sau'z, Dank Sti'x). Core technology centers on an indoor hydroponic cultivation system with a defined 5-step artisan process — indoor cultivation, hang-drying, cold curing, hand thumb trimming, and hand packing — producing flower with THC content ranging from 18-36% depending on strain. Sub-brands LowKey (award-winning dessert strains), R'Belle (Quebec-exclusive sold through SQDC), and MTL Craft (micro-cultivation aggregator) segment the market by price point, geography, and production scale.
MTL Cannabis generates revenue through two primary streams: recreational cannabis sold through provincial distributors and licensed retailers across all Canadian provinces, and medical cannabis distributed through its subsidiaries ABBA Medix Corp. (an online medical marketplace sourcing 450+ SKUs from 60+ brands) and Canada House Clinics Inc. (medical document issuance and patient education). The company sells directly to budtenders and retailers through a dedicated sales channel ([email protected]) and operates the 5 à Sesh product knowledge training program for retail staff. Additional subsidiaries include Montréal Cannabis Médical Inc. (licensed cultivator/processor) and IsoCanMed Inc. (medical cannabis cultivation).
Following the August 2023 listing on the CSE under symbol MTLC and achieving $83.1M in FY2024 revenue, MTL Cannabis was acquired by Canopy Growth Corporation in March 2026 for approximately CA$125 million. The acquisition integrated MTL's patient network, clinics, online medical channel, and premium flower supply into Canopy's operations, positioning the combined entity as Canada's leading medical cannabis business by revenue. The deal targets approximately $10M in run-rate cost synergies within 18 months and supports Canopy Growth's fiscal 2027 positive adjusted EBITDA target. MTL Cannabis now operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Canopy Growth (NASDAQ: CGC).
