CALGARY, AB – December 4, 2018 – Gabriella’s Kitchen Inc. (CSE: GABY) (“GABY” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has appointed Mr. Robert Travis and Ms. Maureen Putnam to the Company’s Board of Directors effective November 26, 2018, whose respective skills and experience will provide invaluable oversight and counsel as GABY continues to execute its growth strategy. Concurrent with these additions, GABY confirms that Mr. Richard Bonnycastle has resigned from the Board in favour of joining the Company’s strategic Advisory Board.

Mr. Robert Travis is a Managing Partner in both Canada and the US with Boyden Executive Search (“Boyden”), specializing in executive leadership placements with a focus on industrial, consumer and technology practice groups. Robert has more than 22 years of industry experience focused across various industries that include manufacturing, fabrication, consumer, energy, energy services, technology and cannabis. He successfully led Boyden’s international expansion by becoming the Founding Partner of the Calgary office in 1996, and subsequently, the Founding Partner of the Atlanta office in 2008. Robert’s success has garnered him an impressive portfolio of client accounts, including several Fortune 100 and 500 companies.

A citizen of both Canada and the U.S., Robert is attuned to the subtle differences in leadership requirements between the two countries. This, coupled with his extensive experience, makes Robert ideally suited to provide valuable oversight to GABY as the Company develops a comprehensive, cross border team capable of executing GABY’s vision of being a leading, trusted cannabis wellness company. Furthermore, Boyden has already significantly impacted the cannabis industry through recruitment of positions including CEO, CFO, President, Chairman, and Vice President for an array of companies such as Canopy Growth (TSX:WEED), Tilray (NASDAQ:TLRY), Harvest One Cannabis (TSXV:HVY) and The Green Organic Dutchman (TSX:TGOD).

Further to the Company’s announcement on November 26, 2018 outlining the appointment of Ms. Maureen Putnam as a special advisor to GABY, the Company is pleased to announce that she has agreed to join GABY’s Board of Directors. Maureen brings 25 years of experience building brands, creating and delivering strategic growth plans and developing strong and impactful teams within the consumer product goods space. 

About Gabriella’s Kitchen:

Gabriella’s Kitchen (GABY) is a pure-play cannabis edibles and wellness products company which currently holds a manufacturing license and will hold a distribution license issued by the California Bureau of Cannabis Control upon closing of the Sonoma acquisition. With these licenses, its existing infrastructure of major retailers and an extensive broker and distribution network, GABY is positioned to service mainstream grocery with CBD infused products, as well as licensed cannabis retailers with CBD and THCinfused edible and wellness products throughout Canada and the U.S. The Company also has over 25 noninfused products available in more than 3,400 major retail stores across North America.

Margot and her sister, Gabriella, co-founded GABY to bring high quality, delicious and healthy superfoods to the market. The desire to create the all-encompassing wellness company came after Gabriella received a dire cancer diagnosis which spurred the sisters to prolong Gabriella’s life through a holistic approach to health. GABY directly and through The Oil Plant (“TOP”) now offers a diverse range of products that cater to a variety of dietary and health concerns. Although Gabriella ultimately passed away from her illness, she lived exponentially longer than doctors predicted. Her memory and passion live on through GABY’s mission: to empower people to live healthy lives without compromise.
