Mountain Valley MD Holdings' Subsidiary Completes Acquisition of Colombian Cannabis Licence Suite



Mountain Valley MD Inc.
 

VANCOUVER, B.C. - TheNewswire - July 28, 2020 - Mountain Valley MD Holdings Inc. (the “Company” or “MVMD”) (CSE:MVMD) (CNSX:MVMD.CN) (FRA:20MP) is pleased to announce that it has completed its acquisition of a complete suite of cannabis licenses through Colverde MD S.A.S. (“Colverde”), a wholly-owned Colombian subsidiary of the Company.

The licences held by Colverde include a licence for the cultivation of psychoactive cannabis plants in the categories of (i) Seed manufacturing for sowing and (ii) Derivatives manufacturing, a licence for the cultivation of non-psychoactive cannabis plants in the categories of (i) Seed manufacturing for sowing and (ii) Derivatives manufacturing, and a third licence for the manufacture of cannabis derivates in the categories of (i) National uses and (ii) Export (the “Licence Suite”).  While the licences have been granted over the past several months, the remaining step in the acquisition of the Licence Suite was the successful registration of Colverde with the Colombian Agricultural Institute (“ICA”) as producer of certified seed (sexual and asexual) of psychoactive and non-psychoactive cannabis (the “Registration”), which has now been granted.

The approval of the Registration is significant for the Company not only as it marks the completion of the acquisition of the Licence Suite but also as it allows Colverde to proceed with the build out of its wholly owned operations in Colombia related to cultivation of psychoactive and non-psychoactive cannabis plants, including cultivation for produce seeds or grain for sowing, vivarium production, storage, sales, distribution, export, final disposition, processing, manufacturing and distribution of CBD and THC-based consumer products within MVMD’s health and wellness value propositions.

The Registration also allows for Colverde to apply to ICA for the registration of genetics, should it wish to do so.  

Certain securities that had been issued to and by MVMD pursuant to the acquisition of Colverde, which had been held in escrow pending the completion of the Registration, have now been released from escrow, signifying the completion of the acquisition.

“We believe Colombia offers one of the most premium cannabis environments in the world, with its optimal climate and growing conditions, talented low cost rural work force, and its favourable political leadership,” stated Dennis Hancock, President and CEO of MVMD.  “The complete licence suite inside Colverde provides Mountain Valley MD with the ongoing flexibility needed to monetize global cannabis opportunities from operations inside of Colombia.”
