Under Wrigley, Suterra has changed it& #39;s name to Parallel. It is Wrigley& #39;s new baby. https://www.greenmarketreport.com/surterra-wellness-changes-name-to-parallel/">https://www.greenmarketreport.com/surterra-...
Brown’s plan to apply his expertise in the premier spirits business to Surterra’s strategic global brand building seems to be paying off.
We need a corporate name that unites the diverse parts of our organization and all of our associates,” said William “Beau” Wrigley Jr, CEO and Chairman of Parallel.
Parallel also announced today the introduction of
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👉" title="Rückhand Zeigefinger nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Rückhand Zeigefinger nach rechts">Goodblend, the company’s new global retail brand. This store brand will become a recognized source across multiple markets where consumers can find a consistent and trusted selection of the company’s cannabinoid brands.
Goodblend will roll-out initially https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👉" title="Rückhand Zeigefinger nach rechts" aria-label="Emoji: Rückhand Zeigefinger nach rechts">in Florida over the course of the next several months. Parallel has a house, or portfolio, of consumer brands. Each of these brands has its own instantly recognizable name, imagery, appeal, and unique and differentiated positioning. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⬇️" title="Pfeil nach unten" aria-label="Emoji: Pfeil nach unten">
Our proprietary consumer brands include Surterra Wellness, Coral Reefer, Endless Summer and Float.

(from 1st article)
The deal combined NETA’s 700 employees with Surterra’s 800 employees. With NETA’s two dispensaries, Surterra now has close to 30 dispensaries in Florida, Texas, Massachusetts and Nevada.
The deal combined NETA’s 700 employees with Surterra’s 800 employees. With NETA’s two dispensaries, Surterra now has close to 30 dispensaries in Florida, Texas, Massachusetts and Nevada.
Kevin Fisher announced as executive director of operations - Fisher is a veteran of the cannabis industry, and the co-founder and former CEO of NETA and Molecular Infusions, a canabinoid, biopharmaceutical company based in Boston. Surterra has acquired both of these companies.
Fisher& #39;s Rocky Mountain Remedies will transition ownership to Mark Smith, CEO of Tumbleweed dispensaries, which has shops in eight other Colorado towns, such as Frisco and Avon. https://www.steamboatpilot.com/news/marijuana-shop-drops-lawsuit-against-city-of-steamboat-amid-plans-to-sell-business/">https://www.steamboatpilot.com/news/mari...
Smith’s company made national headlines in 2017 after opening the nation’s first drive-through marijuana shop in Parachute. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2017/04/20/the-countrys-first-drive-through-marijuana-shop-is-opening-in-colorado/">https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morn...
Fisher had also founded New England Treatment Access which has a cultivation facility in Franklin,MA that received state approval just before the deal was complete.
BTW, if anyone is wondering what all of this stems from, Jake Bergman, the fiance of Nikki Fried, Florida& #39;s Agricultural Commissioner, is the founder/shareholder/former CEO of Surterra. https://twitter.com/100FrogLegs/status/1385741895490494465?s=20">https://twitter.com/100FrogLe...
Oh, plus Matt Gaetz, Tony Fabrizio & son, plus a whole host of others. But, it& #39;s based in GA. https://www.cnn.com/2021/04/23/politics/gaetz-probe-public-corruption-medical-marijuana/index.html">https://www.cnn.com/2021/04/2...

Though Bergmann still maintains a stake in Surterra, which has since changed its name to Parallel, he stepped down as CEO on Nov. 5, 2018, just before Fried was elected. But this hasn’t stopped concerns of a conflict of interest over Fried and Bergmann’s relationship.
