Tilray Brands, Inc., a global leader in cannabis research, cultivation, production, and distribution, today announced that its Germany cannabis cultivation facility, Aphria RX GmbH, has received the first new cannabis cultivation license issued under MedCanG, Germany’s new Cannabis Act.

The new cannabis cultivation license allows Aphria RX to cultivate and manufacture a broad commercial range of medical cannabis, providing patients with better access to high-quality medical cannabis produced in Germany.

Tilray’s Chief Strategy Officer and Head of International, Denise Faltischek, commented: “We are thrilled to receive this license as it will provide greater access to some of the highest quality medical cannabis produced in Germany and enable us to expand the range of treatment options available to patients. We appreciate the trust that the German Government has placed in Tilray, and we are proud of our team for their groundbreaking work in medical cannabis cultivation and patient care.”

In May 2019, Aphria RX was awarded the most comprehensive license for the cultivation of medical cannabis in Germany from the German Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices (the “BfArM”), having been awarded a total of five lots (1,000 kgs) and was the only licensed producer in Germany with permission to grow all three strains of medical cannabis approved by the BfArM.
