Greece opened its first-ever pharmaceutical cannabis production plant in the Greek town of Examilia near Corinth on January 26 this year.
According to AMNA, Greek Development and Investments Minister, Adonis Georgiadis, welcomed the inauguration of the cannabis production plant as “a historic day.”
He said that although cannabis has “a difficult history due to its nature as a narcotic,” the new production plant will greatly benefit Greek patients.
The medicinal cannabis production plant, invested by Tikun Europe – a subsidiary of Israel Tikun Olam, is worth 40 million euros and is in a privately owned area of six hectares.
It includes modern hybrid greenhouses and can produce medicinal cannabis in multiple pharmaceutical forms.
