My son Austin, founded Terpp Extractors in 2013 and was a great admirer of, and mentored by Grey Wolf and others at Skunk Pharms Research, during the early development phase and evolution of our hydrocarbon extraction systems. Joining Rogue Station Companies will jump-start our next step forward.”
John Conroy, CEO of Rogue Station Companies, Inc. commented, “We’re building a catalog of known brands in the cannabis space and this acquisition is a perfect fit for us. Terpp Extractors’ history and reputation will be part of the foundation we build on and the extraction equipment space is among the fastest-growing sectors within the cannabis industry. By emphasizing acquisitions in manufacturing, support, infrastructure and other “don’t touch the plant” fields, we expect our business to be scalable and national, regardless of delays in cannabis legalization efforts.
Our first priority related to Terpp Extractors is to increase inventory and our marketing exposure of the great products they produce including the MK3 and MK4 Extractors. These extractors can be used by a variety of customers within the cannabis space, including Extraction and Processing labs, growers, pharmaceutical companies, dispensaries in both the cannabis and hemp markets. Our extractors offer customers extremely high yield and the highest quality output at an affordable price. As the Cannabis and Hemp markets continue to explode, the demand for these extractors will follow market demand”.

ManifestSeven (formerly known as MJIC) has acquired San Francisco-based legal cannabis delivery service company Lady Chatterley Health, which is focused on high-end women’s products for an undisclosed amount.
The company will be integrated into M7’s retail arm Weden, which has storefront and delivery operations across the state. The acquisition also gives M7 direct entry into the San Francisco market, complementing its licensed operations in Oakland and Brisbane.

This acquisition also broadens the market reach of M7’s subsidiary MyJane, created by women, for women, and specializing in curated product boxes.
“We’re thrilled to be joining with M7, a market leader that will allow Lady Chatterley Health to maximize our growth potential and continue to build on the exceptional service we offer,” said Stephen Kerford, Chief Executive Officer of Lady Chatterley Health. “Integrating into this powerful omnichannel platform also gives us access to a new universe of customers who’ll be able to access a wider variety of the safest, highest-quality cannabis products.”
