(NASDAQ: ACB) (TSX: ACB), the Canadian-based leading global medical cannabis company, announces the completion of a multi-year investment of $3 million in improvements to its manufacturing facility in Pemberton, British Columbia. These upgrades are a combination of Aurora's proprietary high-performing genetics and state-of-the-art engineering design which have resulted in optimal cultivation conditions, expanded output, and superior product quality. The site has been renamed to Aurora Alpine – a testament to the site reaching its highest potential and to reflect the facility overlooking Mount Currie in the Pemberton Valley. "Over the last three years, the investments we've made into this facility have resulted in doubling the yield and potency, reaching a record 33.7%," says Alex Miller, Executive Vice President of Operations and Supply Chain at Aurora.
