GTEC Holdings Ltd. (TSXV: GTEC) (OTCQB: GGTTF) (FRA: 1BUP) (“GTEC” or the “Company”), a vertically integrated premium cannabis producer, is pleased to announce that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Alberta Craft Cannabis Inc. (“ACC”) has recently completed a Health Canada license inspection.
ACC had requested and scheduled the recent inspection with Health Canada, which is required in order to receive its Standard Processing License. The license would authorize ACC to conduct the following activities:
- To sell adult-use / recreational cannabis into the Provincial government supply chains
- Manufacture cannabis-derived products such as (but not limited to); oils, edibles, beverages, shatter/resin and vapes (once legally permitted within the Cannabis Act & Regulations.)
Health Canada inspectors conducted the inspection during June 25-26, 2019 at the ACC facility in Edmonton, Alberta. ACC expects to receive a formal inspection report from Health Canada in the coming weeks.
ACC is also actively pursuing its Sale for Medical Purposes license which would facilitate direct sales to authorized medical patients.
ACC (formerly operating as GrenEx Farms Inc.) acquired its original Cultivation License on September 29, 2017, under the Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations (“ACMPR”). ACC received its updated Cultivation License, under the Cannabis Act, from Health Canada on November 8, 2018. This facilitated the sale of bulk cannabis to other Licensed Producers (“LP’s”). Accordingly, ACC has been selling to other LP’s since late 2018. This has facilitated the successful launch of the “GreenTec” brand of medical cannabis through multiple online platforms.
“It’s encouraging to see Alberta Craft Cannabis continuing to make positive progress in its quest to become a recognized player in the premium cannabis market,” said Norton Singhavon, GTEC Founder, Chairman and CEO. “We are very proud of the ACC team for all of the work that has been done to facilitate and support the Health Canada inspection process.”
