Presentation to SAHPRA and the Deputy Minister of Health in KZN

Last month, we spent a few days in Durban, engaging KZN cannabis stakeholders including government, investors and clients.

We had the opportunity to present to the Honourable Deputy Minister of Health, Dr Sibongiseni Dhlomo and to SAHPRA, on the global cannabis industry, including market developments, policy considerations, and research based recommendations on how to structure South Africa's local medical cannabis patient access model, which desperately needs reform.

The meetings and engagements were both inspiring and promising. Despite a difficult 12 months for the people of KZN, we're excited about the potential of the province to play a leading role in the development of the cannabis industry in South Africa. The energy, passion and resilience of cannabis stakeholders in the province gives us confidence that KZN's cannabis future is bright.

We look forward to expanding our engagements in KZN as the province rebuilds and rebounds from a difficult period which has brought to light the strength of its people.
