Labrador Forges Strategic Partnership with Transpera
Calgary, Alberta December 13, 2018 – Labrador Technologies Inc. ("Labrador" or the "Company") (TSXV:
"LTX") announces it has signed a development contract with Transpera Technologies Inc. for its
Cannaverse lifestyle APP, a one of a kind, smart cannabis journaling App to assist consumers with
identifying which strain is personally best for them, on a batch by batch basis. Phase 1 of
commercialization is scheduled for March 2019.
"We focus on transparency, from the way we approach our development projects right down to our
company name," says Kevin Kembel, Transpera’s Managing Partner. "Transpera strongly believes
in Labrador’s vision for the Cannaverse App development project. There is a mutual goal to bring a unique
and necessary platform for connecting cannabis customers to the highly technical, fluid, and diverse retail
marketplace."
Continues Kevin, “in keeping with Transpera's mutual growth principles, we have to be mindful about what
projects we invest our time and resources in. We see the potential for Cannaverse to grow Labrador, and we
look forward to our long-term relationship and involvement in this project. Since our inception, we firmly
believe that our clients' best interests are shared with our own. Our growth as a company can only come in
lock-step with the growth of our clients. The partnership between Transpera and Labrador Technologies
holds true to this principle.”
More about Transpera:
Transpera was born from the IT Department of a national retail franchise. Its principal was brought onboard
in 2007 to manage the rewrite of an isolated desktop point-of-sale application, initially in use by over 150
retail stores, into a data-warehoused distributed software that allowed the franchisor to track, manage and
report on chain activity in real-time. The subsequent version of the software added live dashboarding, HR
tools, internal communication tools, resource sharing, training, and integration with third party call centre
and marketing tools before being rolled out to an additional 90 locations under another brand name across
Canada and the USA. These tools have allowed the franchisors to add value that no other competitor has
been able to match since, reduce overhead at their head offices, embed their unique business models into the
software, engage directly with front-line staff, and present a more cohesive brand across each location
internationally.
Transpera has expanded its client base, written its third point-of-sale platform from the ground up, deployed
several mobile applications, and has focused on developing internal tool suites that empower multi-location
retail businesses. Transpera’s experience in developing intranet staff portals, 3rd party integrations,
automation, and real-time dashboarding is an asset to the Cannaverse mobile app, matching its need for data
security, scalability, and future integration with Cannabis point-of-sale data sources.
With its history as an IT department, they have sharpened their tools on a need for in-house diversity.
Transpera prides itself on its aptitude and its track record of developing a variety of solutions that exceed
expectations, and they look forward to putting their unique experience to use in their long-term partnership
with Labrador Technologies Inc. and the development of the Cannaverse mobile app.
