"This round of funding will allow us to reach more customers, improve our processes, and maintain our focus on high standards of quality and sustainability."

The $7 million in new funding comes from a diverse group of investors, including both new and existing backers. Cannect Wellness plans to use the funds to increase its production capacity, expand its product portfolio, and double the size of its team. The company also plans to launch new brands and evaluate other expansion opportunities that align with its mission of providing the best cannabis experiences for consumers in Illinois.

"We have some exciting things in the works," added Singal. "As the market changes, we work hard to stay ahead of the curve and our upcoming product launches will reflect that."

Cannect Wellness’ rapid growth reflects a rising demand for high-quality, craft cannabis, as more consumers seek premium products in an increasingly competitive market. With its focus on quality and sustainability, Cannect Wellness is poised to remain a leader in the Illinois cannabis industry.
