NEUMÜNSTER, Germany, July 22, 2024 (GLOBE
NEWSWIRE) -- Tilray Brands, Inc. (“Tilray”) (Nasdaq: TLRY; TSX:
TLRY), a global leader in cannabis research, cultivation,
production, and distribution, today announced that its Germany
cannabis cultivation facility, Aphria RX GmbH (“Aphria RX”), 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.
The introduction of the MedCan-G Bill in Germany
has led to a significant increase in the number of patients and
prescribers for medicinal cannabis. With the new cannabis license,
Tilray is well-positioned to take full advantage of the market
opportunity. Additionally, Aphria RX can now fully utilize and
maximize its growing capacity while also expanding its genetics to
a total of 31 approved strains from the previously approved three
strains. Originally designed with guidance from Kevin Anderson, the
renowned cannabis grower of Broken Coast, Aphria RX can now
replicate the growing conditions at Broken Coast, maximizing Aphria
RX's potential as a premium craft grower.
As a leader in the field of medical cannabis
research and production, Tilray strongly believes that these
developments will have a positive impact on the health and
well-being of many patients in Germany. We look forward to
exploring the path opened by the German government and all
stakeholders in promoting improved access to medical cannabis, and
the opportunity to optimize care for our patients.
