Ya Tú Me Conoces is Thalía’s new collaboration with Mau y Ricky

ICC International Cannabis Corp is thrilled to announce the addition of Thalía Sodi®, world-renowned singer, songwriter, and entrepreneur, to their existing licensing agreement with Authentic Brands Group, an owner of a portfolio of lifestyle and entertainment brands including Thalía Sodi®. The agreement allows for ICC to market and distribute cannabidiol (CBD) derived beauty and wellness products throughout Spain under the Thalía Sodi® brand.

2019 is already turning into a monumental success for Thalía. The year kicked-off with the national launch of her hair care line, Adria by Thalía®, followed by accolades in music including nominations for Artist of the Year and Pop/Rock Collaboration of the Year at the Premio Lo Nuestro Awards last month.

Thalía has 40+ million global followers across social media. With a highly engaged audience, paired with her connection to beauty community, Thalía will help ICC expand its reach with exposure to more than 1.3 million unique followers in Spain.

“We’re excited to bring the notable Thalía Sodi® brand to the forefront of the CBD beauty conversation in Spain”, said Eugene Beukman, Chief Executive Officer and a Director of International Cannabis. “We’re confident the brand will have significant impact on the CBD community, and are thrilled to bring our CBD-based solutions to this diverse target audience.”

“The addition of CBD to the Thalía Sodi® portfolio, particularly in the beauty, lifestyle and active categories, is a tribute to her dedication and commitment to wellness through every facet of her life”, said Daniel W. Dienst, ABG Executive Vice Chairman. “We look forward to working with ICC to expand the global footprint for the Thalía Sodi® brand, targeting the emerging beauty and wellness CBD market in Spain.”

The licensing agreement between ICC and ABG was developed in conjunction with advisory services provided by Cannabis Lifestyle Partners (CLP).
