International Cannabis Brand Cookies and InterCure Announce European Expansion

Cookies Partners With Leading Global Cannabis Company InterCure to Open Retail Locations in Austria and the U.K. in Early 2022

Iconic cannabis brand Cookies today announced its international expansion into Europe through a partnership with Israel-based InterCure (NASDAQ: INCR), the leading, profitable and fastest-growing cannabis company outside North America. The parties entered into a multiyear deal under which InterCure will establish Cookies stores and medical cannabis pharmacies in Austria and the United Kingdom in early 2022.

"As we focus on new territories, it's vital our customers continue to count on the quality Cookies is known for, which is a value we share with our partners at InterCure,” said Parker Berling, President of Cookies. “We look forward to reaching audiences in Austria and the United Kingdom and establishing Cookies as a mainstay in each community."

InterCure, a Cookies international partner, is already cultivating, manufacturing and distributing GMP standard, Cookies-branded products through its Cookies national medical cannabis pharmacy chain. InterCure will leverage its licensed international supply chain to serve the growing communities of medical cannabis patients in Europe.

"Cookies is one of the most internationally recognized brands in cannabis, and after our mutual success in Israel, it's only obvious we further our expansion to Europe, providing the highest quality grade cannabis products," said Alexander Rabinovitch, CEO of InterCure.
