Sugarmade to Expand BudCars into Los Angeles Market
NEW YORK, April 16, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NetworkWire – Sugarmade, Inc. (OTCQB:SGMD) (“Sugarmade”, “SGMD”, or the “Company”), and its BudCars Cannabis Delivery Service (“BudCars”), is excited to announce the expansion of BudCars into the Southern California marketplace through the acquisition of two locations in the greater Los Angeles area.
The Company’s primary locations in the Sacramento area have been experiencing dramatic growth, with revenues consistently increasing 10% week-over-week, driven by exploding demand for contactless delivery of cannabis products due to the coronavirus lockdown. The Company now expects to surpass $30 million in annualized revenues at these locations.
“Our Sacramento locations will pass the $10 million mark for annualized sales within the next 60-90 days,” stated Jimmy Chan, CEO of Sugarmade. “The growth has been so dramatic that we have had to drastically revise our expectations to the upside, which demands expansion, both in terms of staff and fleet in Sacramento, and in terms of regional expansion into Southern California. As a result, we are acquiring two distribution hub locations in the LA area with cannabis licenses included so we can hit the ground running.”
Based on data from its current operations as well as trends in the LA region, management believes that each additional new BudCars hub will provide an annual revenue run-rate of $15 million to $20 million as a moderate baseline estimate.
The Company also notes that it is seeing a consistent 19% to 20% net profit on sales at its Sacramento locations and believes this will translate to new locations, fueling further expansion potential for up to as many as 20 new BudCars hubs across California over the coming 18-24 months driven primarily by cash from operations.
“We are hiring and expanding our fleet as fast as we can right now to keep up with demand,” continued Chan. “We can’t expand fast enough. But that’s a great problem to have, and LA represents an ideal new market for BudCars.”
