CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- TILT Holdings Inc. (“TILT” or the “Company”) (“TILT”) (CSE: TILT) (OTCQB: SVVTF), a leading provider of products and services to businesses operating in the cannabis industry, today announced that Jupiter Research, LLC (“Jupiter”), a leader in inhalation and vaporization technology and wholly owned subsidiary of TILT, has further expanded distribution of its proprietary, high-performance technologies in California through its integration with TILT’s software and supply chain services.

“At TILT our vision is to help cannabis businesses better serve their customers and patients by providing them the tools to communicate, operate, and scale with a greater degree of efficiency,” said Alex Coleman, Chief Executive Officer of TILT Holdings. “Through Jupiter’s expansion with Blackbird and Baker, Jupiter customers benefit from partnered solutions and shared expertise pivotal for success in the global cannabis economy. The continued integration of our businesses is driving cross-selling opportunities that deliver more value to our customers and increased revenue opportunities for TILT.”
