Canopy Growth: Tweed Now Approved for Dried Marijuana Production and Processing

Canopy Growth (TSXV:CGC) subsidiary Tweed Farms is now licensed to produce, possess and ship dried marijuana at its facilities in Ontario.
As quoted in the press release:

The license completes a successful phase of infrastructure enhancements that have increased the independence of the Tweed Farms site and transformed it from a broad-scale production facility to a vertically integrated campus capable of growing, trimming, curing and storing product. A 25,000 sq. ft. processing and storage building has been added to the existing 350,000 sq. ft. greenhouse. Tweed Farms will seek a final sales license as soon as its first crop has been harvested and tested for sale.

Bruce Linton, Canopy Growth CEO, said:

We acquired the greenhouse twenty two months ago to position ourselves as a large scale, low-cost producer capable of supplying a sizeable percentage of the market. This infrastructure completion and Health Canada approval milestone is a testament to the team at Tweed Farms who continue to execute our capacity-building as planned.
We now have three distinct facilities licensed to produce a significant amount of finished goods, offering a growing number of patients a reliable, diverse and secure supply of cannabis and related oils products.
