History
We started the application process for cultivation, extraction and export licences for psychoactive and non-psychoactive cannabis (CBD) in Q4 2017. Our decision to locate our medical division in Colombia has been based upon the country’s unique growing conditions, the availability of highly skilled human resources and a favorable, export- oriented regulatory framework.
Growth strategy
Following licence approval in Q3 2018, we will build out our 16 hectare cultivation and GMP extraction site in close proximity to Bogota. Our commercial strategy is to provide affordable, efficacy-proven prescription medicines and innovative OTC products to:

Latin America
a market with
625 M people
