The stock has since then recovered and is now trading at the same level as it was two months ago, at $0.15.

Recent Developments
PlantX is an e-commerce platform that serves as a one-stop-shop for all things plant-based, with over 5,000 vegan products, meal, and indoor plant delivery services, and plans to expand its product lines to include cosmetics, fashion, and its own water brand. Thanks to its huge selection of plant-based products, the company is progressively becoming the go-to plant-based brand and is called the digital face of the plant-based community.
Last year, the company launched PlantX Shop, an app designed to improve customer engagement and satisfaction that includes a QR code scanning capability that allows customers to self-checkout in all XMarket retail stores, improving the speed and efficiency of the checkout process. Customers can also use the App to access the XFood program, which is a meal delivery service that also offers a variety of plant-based recipes. All the items in the recipe are linked to PlantX product bundles that users can buy directly from the store.
In an effort to improve its e-commerce capabilities, the company announced on March 16 the launch of same-day delivery for its grocery products in Ottawa and Toronto, with distribution handled by third-party delivery apps. PlantX also announced a strategic partnership with BESTIES Vegan Paradise (“BESTIES”) to redesign and rebrand its XMarket brick-and-mortar stores in Venice and Hillcrest, California, as BESTIES. BESTIES is also a leading brand in the plant-based industry, having been named the “Best Grocery Store” in the VegNews Veggie Awards for the past two years.
The company reported a strong third-quarter 2022 performance, with revenue of more than C$2.7 million, a 201% increase over the same period last year. PlantX is rapidly expanding in the burgeoning plant-based food market, which is expected to reach $161.9 billion by 2027.
