KELOWNA, BC, Oct. 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ - Marapharm Ventures Inc. (CSE: MDM) (OTCQX: MRPHF) (FSE: 2M0) ("Marapharm" or the "Company") shares its exhilaration with Canadians on this historic day of the legalization of recreational cannabis.
Health Canada has confirmed receipt of our amended, late-state ACMPR application.
We are strategically positioning ourselves to become a presence in the Canadian cannabis market. Our (10) 10,000 sq. ft bio-secure facilities (100,000 sq. ft) will aim to produce a pure organic cannabis flower using cultivation methods that will leave a small environmental footprint allowing us to produce at a lower cost.
The governmental agency Health Canada estimates annual demand in the country to be 926,000 kilograms, or about 2 million pounds. There's no reliable data on the exact supply of licensed recreational vendors, however the most recent estimates put the nation's supply of medical marijuana at 66,404 kilograms of dried cannabis.
