About us

We began to write a new chapter in the medical Cannabis history in 2016

Two pillars underpin medcann’s creation in 2016:

Profound understanding of the regulatory framework.
• Decades of expertise in cannabis cultivation, hybridization and transformation for medical purposes.

In its early years, medcann aimed to take the most of the country´s competitive advantages (regulatory and natural) in a sustainable and competitive way by betting on outdoor cultivation with the goal of obtaining scalability, and low-cost expansion, through mechanized agriculture processes.

The first efforts of the company focused on:

• Concession of regulatory assets.
Characterization of genetics varieties.

Milestones and achievements
