Germany boasts the largest economy in

Europe - a global leader across multiple

industries and the forerunner of the

European cannabis industry.

Germany, Europe’s largest potential

market opened up in March 2017 with the

introduction of new medical cannabis

legislation and the creation of eleven

production licenses.

As of January 2017, public health insurers,

which provide cover to 90% of the

population, were required to cover

cannabis medication (up to 5 oz. per

month), making Germany one of the most

valuable markets in Europe.

Mid term strategy will be to grow high

quality / low cost product in Israel, extract

onshore Europe (GMP calibre) for

distribution into Eurozone.
