By Ben Miller
Privateer Holdings, a Seattle public equity firm that specializes in the marijuana industry, said it's made a deal with the estate of the late reggae singer Bob Marley, to tie Marely's name to a new line of "Marley Natural" marijuana products.
Marley, an avowed marijuana user, died in 1981 from cancer in Miami, Fla. According to Privateer Holdings, "Marley Natural will offer premium cannabis products that honor the life and legacy of Bob Marley as well as his belief in the benefits of cannabis."
"We are honored to work with the Marley family to bring his voice to a professional, authentic and modern brand that will be a defining first in the cannabis industry," said Brendan Kennedy, CEO of Privateer Holdings, in a statement.
"My husband believed 'the herb' was a natural and positive part of life, and he felt it was important to the world," said Rita Marley, Bob's wife, in the statement.
