- Wee-Cig International Corporation (WCIG) operates as a publicly traded holding and acquisition company that identifies, operates, and acquires technology companies in emerging markets, with a focus on advanced blockchain concepts, NFTs, online gaming, digital assets exchanges, and related platforms; it previously engaged in electronic cigarettes and vaporizers before shifting to tech investments. The company offers services to help these tech firms advance through investment opportunities, industry relationships, and managerial expertise, targeting sectors like cannabis-derived products via acquisitions and blockchain-based platforms combining non-fungible tokens, gaming, and learning portals for mass adoption in digital assets. Founded in 1999 and headquartered at 6490 West Desert Inn Road in Las Vegas, Nevada, Wee-Cig conducts operations primarily in emerging markets including North America and the Caribbean, serving investors and tech enterprises seeking growth in volatile sectors like tobacco, cannabis, and blockchain. Recent major changes include a 2023 definitive agreement to acquire a controlling interest in The Jamaican Brew House, bringing patent-pending cannabis-derived neutral liquid base technology for food and beverages with planned commercial sales that year, alongside leadership transitions appointing Ruben Yakubov as Chairman and Secretary and Erin Winczura as CEO, President, and Treasurer; earlier moves involved acquiring EZ Exchange OU (EZ365) with Russell Korus as CEO, and pursuits in blockchain mortgage technology and NFT conferences. The company reports minimal revenue of approximately $23,600 (TTM) against losses of $1.33 million, positioning it as a speculative microcap in the tobacco, cannabis, and fintech segments.
