These services are used by several international and national pharmaceutical companies.

We are thrilled to establish a presence in Latin America through Mexico with this strategic partnership,” said Csaba Reider, TGOD’s President. “This partnership with LLACA aligns us with an experienced commercial leader in a key strategic market. This is an exciting step in TGOD becoming the global leader in premium, organic cannabis.”

“We are pleased to be partnering with TGOD,” said Alejandro Perea, Medical Cannabis Commercialization Director of LLACA. “We respect TGOD’s organic principles, which will serve well in the medical market in Mexico. We like their forward-thinking management and are excited about the brand. We expect that the Mexican market is ready for the organic cannabis story.”
