DOJA Cannabis Company completes first harvest and requests cannabis sales inspection
KELOWNA, BC, Nov. 2, 2017 /CNW/ – DOJA Cannabis Company Limited (“DOJA” or the “Company”) (CSE: DOJA) is pleased to announce that its wholly-owned subsidiary, a licensed cannabis producer under the Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations (the “ACMPR”), successfully completed its initial cannabis harvests and has requested a Pre-Sales License Inspection from Health Canada. The Pre-Sales License Inspection is the last step prior to the issuance of a Sales License under the ACMPR.
Trent Kitsch, CEO of DOJA, commented: “I’m extremely proud of our cultivation team, they have delivered on all levels, the quality of our flower is impressive and the yields exceeded our expectations. Our growers focus on bringing out the fullest expression of the plant’s genetic potential and the love and hard work they have put into their craft really shows in our first four strains. Post-harvest, our flowers were expertly hand-trimmed, hang-dried and artisanally cured. Our handcrafted approach is aimed at producing the finest cannabis with exceptional aroma, flavor and effects.”
Requesting our Pre-Sales License Inspection from Health Canada is another major milestone for DOJA. There are currently only 26 independent companies with cannabis sales licenses under the ACMPR in Canada.
