One World Pharma Receives Colombian Approval for Five THC Strains
Approvals Allow Company to Seek Sales to European Market
LAS VEGAS, NV, Jan. 14, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire -- One World Pharma Inc. (OTC: OWPC), “OWP,” a U.S. based, fully licensed, pure-play hemp and cannabis ingredient producer in Colombia, has received official approval and registration from Colombia’s Agricultural Institute (ICA) for five (5) of the Company’s proprietary THC genetic strains. This builds upon the Company’s ongoing genetics program and adds to the approvals previously received for three CBD strains in 2020.
This will allow One World Pharma to now apply for both Supplementary THC quota for 2021 and ordinary quota for 2022, which when approved will greatly expand the Company’s potential commercial opportunities serving the global medical market including countries such as Germany, Switzerland, Italy, and Portugal which have legal THC medical use applications.
“It is a tremendous achievement by our team to secure these essential and difficult to obtain approvals,” stated Isiah Thomas, Chief Executive Officer, One World Pharma. “It speaks to the quality of our proprietary, high quality genetic strains and our processes and to our strong relationship with the Colombian government and its agencies.”
“But most importantly, these approvals now unlock access to a vast international market that we’ve been waiting to enter,” added Thomas.
