First Jamaican cannabis flower released in Germany<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Australian-based medicinal cannabis producer Cannim completes first-ever legal export of Jamaican cannabis flower to one of the world\u2019s biggest medicinal cannabis markets.<\/p>\n

19th<\/sup> August 2021.<\/em><\/p>\n

Australian-headquartered medicinal cannabis company Cannim has announced the completion of the first-ever legal commercial export of Jamaican cannabis flower to Germany.<\/p>\n

Germany is the one of the world\u2019s most significant medicinal cannabis markets, and Cannim\u2019s Chief Commercial Officer Stuart Marsh said this announcement was a key step towards achieving Cannim\u2019s mission to become a global leader in the medicinal and wellness cannabis sectors.<\/p>\n

\u201cGermany represents a huge opportunity for Cannim, and our ability to cultivate high quality, medical-grade Jamaican cannabis that meets the strict standards of the German Pharmacopoeia is testament to the professionalism of our teams in Jamaica and Australia,\u201d Mr Marsh said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe support we have received from all levels of the Jamaican government and its agencies and the rigor of Jamaica\u2019s Cannabis Licensing Authority (CLA) in ensuring Jamaica\u2019s industry complies with international treaty obligations have been essential in securing Jamaica\u2019s entry to this global arena.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn particular, we\u2019d like to acknowledge the Government\u2019s and CLA\u2019s willingness to expedite the improvement of interim regulations and timely processes to drive Jamaica\u2019s ability to effectively compete on the world stage.\u201d<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Honourable.\u00a0Audley Shaw\u00a0CD, MP., Jamaican Minister of Industry, Investment and Commerce, was similarly enthused by the landmark achievement.<\/p>\n

\u201cJamaica has long had a rich history with cannabis and we are proud to have been able to support the industry and Cannim in achieving this pioneering export to Germany,\u201d Mr Shaw said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are excited to finally be able to start satisfying global demand for the finest Jamaican-grown medicinal cannabis products.\u201d<\/p>\n

The initial shipment of high-THC cannabis flowers was grown on Cannim\u2019s 500-acre farm in Jamaica, representing the first batch of an ongoing supply, with significant quantities of the product ready to be released into Germany over the coming months.<\/p>\n

Cannim has formed a strong partnership with Cantourage, one of Europe\u2019s leading medical cannabis companies, and will use Cantourage\u2019s \u201cFast Track Access\u201d platform to enter European medical markets.<\/p>\n

Philip Schetter, CEO of Cantourage, recognized the significance of the development.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is an exciting milestone for the rapidly expanding medicinal cannabis sector in Germany,\u201d Mr Schetter said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe local market has been growing for some time, but this is the first time we have been able to supply the highest quality products processed from genuine Jamaican cannabis flower.<\/p>\n

\u201cCantourage places great value on natural products which amplify the benefits for German patients, and this partnership opens up access to a new source with an established reputation for ideal growing conditions.. Our partnership with Cannim offers us an unprecedented opportunity to bring medical cannabis from Jamaica, which is known for its ideal growing conditions, into the fast-growing European medical cannabis market for the first time.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is an important \u00a0step in the development of this still nascent industry.\u201d<\/p>\n
