Avicanna Inc AVCN announced Friday that its subsidiary, Santa Marta Golden Hemp S.A.S., exported its first batch of purified cannabidiol from Colombia to Canada for scientific research.
To enable the import of CBD isolates into Canada, Health Canada issued three authorizations to Santa Marta Golden Hemp at the end of June, and the isolates left Colombia Thursday, the company said.
“We are thrilled to complete our first export and proud to be doing so into Canada. This is another validation of Avicanna's ability to execute on all of its verticals and demonstrates the success and advantage of Avicanna's cultivation infrastructure, extraction and purification capacity, and regulatory expertise,” CEO Aras Azadian said in a statement.
