Why This Ontario-Based Cannabis Greenhouse Company Is Expanding

Posted by Brian Sparks|May 5, 2022

Greenway Greenhouse Cannabis Corporation is expanding its cultivation facility in Kingsville, Ontario, Canada. The expansion will increase cultivation facilities flowering space from 41,750 square feet to approximately 167,000 square feet, as well as increasing the processing space to 22,000 square feet.

“We are pleased to be able to announce that work has commenced on our expansion of our cultivation and flowering facility, GW1,” says Carl Mastronardi, President of Greenway Greenhouse. “This expansion is paramount to Greenway, as it will increase our growing capacity. We have taken the methodical approach to expanding, making sure we don’t put the cart before the horse.”

“From the start, we had growth in mind. With experience scaling greenhouse cultivation companies to hundreds of acres, the team has been waiting to demonstrate to the industry how a cultivator can scale sustainably and responsibly,” says Jamie D’Alimonte, Chief Executive Officer of Greenway Greenhouse. “With our current facilities, and the access we have to future acreage at a low retrofit cost, Greenway Greenhouse can supply Canadians from coast to coast to coast.”

“Since we got licensed, we have been able to move most of what we have grown,” says Darren Peddle, Chief Financial Officer of Greenway Greenhouse. “We have run into issues a few times of having customers looking to buy, and we were in between crop cycles. With the expansion completed, our customers will have access to fresh product more readily, meaning our customers will need to wait less time between new batches becoming available.”

After signing on all of the major contractors, the company is expecting to be able to deliver the expansion on time and on budget, with the expanded areas set to begin operation in the first quarter of 2023.
