AYLMER,Ontario and TORONTO, April 28, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WeedMD Inc. (TSX-V:WMD) (“WeedMD” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has received an amendment to its license from Health Canada to include the sale of dried cannabis products from its facility in Aylmer, ON. In addition, the Company was licensed to sell starting materials to patients wishing to grow their own medicine under ACMPR, a practice WeedMD strongly supports. Full product offerings will appear on the WeedMD website when available.

“Obtaining our license to sell dried cannabis products is another major milestone for WeedMD. The expedited nature of the sales amendment came ahead of schedule and accelerates our timeline to revenue generation, and is a direct result of the dedication and quality efforts of our entire team,” said Bruce Dawson-Scully, CEO of WeedMD. “We look forward to opening our doors to patients and are excited to serve both patients in the long-term care and senior market as well the broader medical patient community.”

The license capacity has been amended and the fully retrofitted 26,000 sq. ft. indoor facility is now licensed to produce and sell 1,200kg of dried medical cannabis. In anticipation of the approval to sell, the Company has produced an inventory of approximately 300kg of dried cannabis product. The facility is currently capable of producing up to 1,300kg of dried cannabis per annum, with intentions to build out an oil extract lab as well further mothering and nursery rooms that could augment current production by up to 40%.
