LAS VEGAS, NV, Nov. 26, 2019 /CNW/ - Flower One Holdings Inc. ("Flower One" or the "Company") (CSE:FONE) (OTCQX:FLOOF) – Nevada's leading cannabis cultivator, producer, and full-service brand fulfillment partner – today announces its brand partnership with California-born Kiva Confections ("Kiva"), bringing their industry-leading, premium cannabis confections to the Nevada market.

About Kiva Confections
Kiva was founded in 2010 with a clear mission - change how the world views and uses cannabis. Frustrated by the inconsistent, low-quality edibles available at the time, a young couple began making chocolate bars out of their Bay Area home kitchen. Today, their award-winning chocolates, mints, and gummies are the most precise, discreet, and delicious on the market. For this, Kiva has become the most recognized edible brand in cannabis and the leading edible company in California. In addition to California and Nevada, Kiva products can be found in Arizona, Illinois, Michigan and Hawaii. For more information, visit: https://kivaconfections.com
