Optimi Health Corp. (CSE: OPTI | OTCQX: OPTHF | FRA: 8BN), a Canadian-based company licensed by Health Canada to produce natural, scalable, and accessible psychedelic and functional mushrooms for transformational human experiences, is pleased to announce that it has finalized three new Canadian retail and e-commerce distribution agreements for its Optimi Life nutraceutical mushroom products.

The agreements with Well.ca, Vitasave, and Healthy Planet come within six months of the Company’s February launch of Optimi Life (www.optimilife.com), a line of functional mushroom supplements transforming the industry with formulations made from the highest possible quality fruiting body mushrooms for whole body and mind optimization.

Well.ca: Well.ca is a premier natural foods e-commerce platform offering Optimi’s complete line-up of functional supplements to Canadians across the country.

Vitasave: Based in Vancouver, Vitasave was the first retailer to bring Optimi into their assortment. With two retail outlets and an e-commerce platform, consumers both in the Greater Vancouver Area and across the country have access to Optimi products along with other supplements in one location.

Healthy Planet: Healthy Planet has agreed to introduce Optimi’s full line of mushroom supplements to their web-based selling platform and we look forward to proving our worth and moving into their 30+ retail locations across Ontario.

Optimi’s CEO, Bill Ciprick, says the agreements strengthen the Company’s B2B distribution network and positions the Optimi Life brand for expansion into international markets.

Optimi Life General Manager, Darren Mahaffy, credits Optimi Life’s early distribution and revenue success to quality and marketability.

“A lot of work has gone into building the Optimi Life story,” said Mahaffy. “Today’s success is the first step in defining our position as a pure, quality producer of whole mushroom ingredients designed for the curious mind and evolving health-conscious consumer.”
