Eve & Co Announces First Commercial Shipment of EU GMP Cannabis to German Partner
European Milestone Follows Entry into Cannabis 2.0 Market as First Mover for Cannabis-infused Bath Bombs
STRATHROY, Ontario, Nov. 10, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Eve & Co Incorporated (“Eve & Co”, “we”, “us” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: EVE; OTCQX: EEVVF) ) is pleased to announce that Natural MedCo Ltd. (“NMC”), its wholly-owned subsidiary, has successfully completed its first significant commercial shipment of European Union Good Manufacturing Practices (“EU GMP”) certified cannabis to Bavaria Weed GmbH, one of its European cannabis distribution partners. This commercial shipment follows its initial required scientific purposes shipment to Germany which was completed during the summer months.
The Company has executed five supply agreements with its European partners and is ideally positioned to fulfil its European supply agreements from its purpose-built EU GMP licensed facility. We expect to continue shipping bulk cannabis to Germany as regulatory permits are regularly issued in Canada and Germany.
“In addition to our strategic priority of female-focussed cannabis 2.0 products, with the launch of our bath bombs, we have built our facility and partnerships to deliver EU GMP certified cannabis to the international market, a key component of our core business plan,” says Melinda Rombouts, CEO and President of Eve & Co., “We are very proud of our team for having reached this important milestone and look forward to our additional shipments and fulfilling our multiple foreign supply contracts”.
