Barney's Farm Genetics, a cannabis seed breeding company, today announced it has entered an agreement to merge with the Sensi Seeds, an international seed library, and ILGM, a U.S. seed bank and e-commerce platform.
Expected to close in early 2025, this new partnership will allow Barney's Farm Genetics, Sensi Seeds and ILGM to continue operating as distinct brands under one governing umbrella, streamlining operations, sharing proprietary breeding expertise, and positioning the company to compete on a global scale.
"2025 will be a transformative year, not only for our business, but for growers and cannabis connoisseurs worldwide," said Derry Brett, founder of Barney's Farm Genetics and the newly formed group's CEO. "This is more than a business merger — it's a game changer, uniting our reputation for prestige genetics with Sensi's vast library of heritage seed and ILGM's loyal customer base of home growing enthusiasts. Once combined, we'll be able to offer growers the most unique, elevated and sought after cannabis genetics on the market."
Key drivers and benefits of uniting Barney's Farm Genetics, Sensi Seeds, and ILGM under one unified operating umbrella include:
- Collaborative Strength: Retaining the unique identities of each brand while benefiting from collective expertise.
- Premium Quality: Establishing gold standards in product safety and agricultural excellence.
- Seamless Integration: Creating synergies for improved value and a superior customer experience.
- Global Expansion: Leveraging unparalleled distribution to reach new and underserved markets.
The group has announced plans to go public in the U.S. by mid-2025, making it the world's first publicly traded cannabis seed company.
