Flora Growth’s (NASDAQ: FLGC), a leading all-outdoor cultivator and manufacturer of global cannabis products and brands, has made two significant changes to its board. The company named FLGC CEO Luis Merchan as board chair and announced that former Amazon executive Tim Leslie, who is currently serving as chair of Flora Growth’s advisory board, will join the company’s board of directors and audit committee. The company noted that the changes to the board indicate FLGC’s move toward becoming a U.S.-based issuer; the new appointments also support the company’s growth into new international markets.
