Toronto, Ontario and London, United Kingdom–(Newsfile Corp. – December 11, 2023) – Britannia Life Sciences Inc. (CSE: BLAB) (FSE: L020) (“Britannia“) is pleased to announce the launch of the Green Bridge Gateway, a strategic partnership between its subsidiary, Advanced Development & Safety Laboratories (“ADSL“), the Association for the Cannabinoid Industry (“ACI“), Global Regulatory Services (“GRS“), Shweed, and US-based Chem ID.

As an expanded collaboration to the pioneering partnership between ADSL and ACI for Novel Food Applications, the Green Bridge Gateway provides members with support in entering the UK & EU’s CBD market, and will provide access to regulatory advice, toxicology data, supply chain expertise, lab testing and track and trace blockchain technology to propel the industry forward.

Green Bridge Gateway champions CBD traceability and transparency and will help companies through regulatory matters and analytical testing requirements. The network will provide key services such as new product development, supply chain management and business development guidance. This marks a significant milestone for ACI members, as well as new entrants to the UK CBD market, providing the expertise to expand market access and seize new business growth opportunities with the assurance of product authenticity and quality, complemented by microbiological and analytical capabilities.

“The Green Bridge Gateway is the result of many months of collaboration, which we think will result in a more transparent industry based on product integrity, quality, and overall safety through truth-in-labeling, building consumer confidence and trust,” said Peter Shippen, CEO of Britannia.
