Court approves of Trulieve’s Harvest Health acquisition

Cannabis-focused multi-state operator (MSO) Trulieve is celebrating the progress of its monumental $2.1 billion deal to purchase Harvest Health & Recreation

The latest reports reveal that Florida-based Trulieve is inching ever-closer to finalizing the deal, following Harvest’s final court order assenting to the agreement from the Supreme Court of British Columbia.

“We have and will continue to work collaboratively with the entire Trulieve team until we obtain all of (the) required regulatory approvals needed to close,” said the CEO of Harvest Health, Steve White, in a news release published on Thursday, August 19.

The deal was initially confirmed in May. However, it was contingent on the Canadian court’s approval due to the fact that, according to Trulieve, it “will be effected by way of a plan of arrangement pursuant to the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).”
