Business Operations

 

Avenir Wellness Solutions, Inc. formerly known as CURE Pharmaceutical Holding Corp. (“CPHC”), its wholly-owned subsidiaries, CURE Pharmaceutical Corporation (“CURE Pharmaceutical”), Cure Chemistry Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “CHI”) and The Sera Labs, Inc. (“Sera Labs”) (CPHC, CURE Pharmaceutical, CHI and Sera Labs, collectively the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us,” or “CURE”) is a biopharmaceutical company focusing on the development and manufacturing of drug formulation and drug delivery technologies in novel dosage forms to improve drug safety, efficacy and patient adherence. Our mission is to improve lives by redefining how medications are delivered and experienced. Our primary business model is to develop wellness and drug products using our proprietary technology, which development may include preclinical and clinical studies and regulatory approval, grant product rights to partners responsible for marketing, sales and distribution, while retaining exclusive manufacturing rights and market sell and distribute branded health, wellness, and beauty products through Sera Labs. We operate in a 25,000 square foot cGMP manufacturing plant in Oxnard, CA.

 

Our technology platform includes oral thin film (“OTF”), and encapsulation systems (“microCURE”) compatible with OTF, chews, oral solutions, topical and transdermal dose forms. We apply our technology to pharmaceutical drugs and dietary supplements and topical products for the wellness market. OTF products are about the size of a postage stamp and composed of excipients such as polymers, stabilizers, lipids and surfactants, which are all generally recognized as safe. They can be designed to deliver active ingredients to the gastrointestinal, or GI, tract when placed on the tongue and swallowed, or directly to the blood stream when placed under the tongue (sublingual) or on the inner lining of the cheek and lip (buccal).

 

Our recently acquired wholly-owned subsidiary, Sera Labs, is a trusted leader in the health, wellness, and beauty sectors of innovative products with cutting edge technology and superior ingredients such as CBD. Sera Labs creates high quality products that use science-backed, proprietary formulations. More than 25 products are sold under the brand names Seratopical™, Seratopical Revolution™ SeraLabs™, and Nutri-Strips™. Sera Labs sells its products at affordable prices, making them easily accessible on a global scale. Strategically positioned in the growth market categories of beauty, health & wellness, and pet care, Sera Labs products are sold in major national drug, grocery chains, convenience stores and mass retailers. The company also sells products under private label to major retailers and multi-level marketers, as well as direct-to-consumer (DTC), via online website orders, including opt-in subscriptions.
