Invictus Signs LOI For Cannabis Sales into Germany
VANCOUVER, June 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ – INVICTUS MD STRATEGIES CORP. (“Invictus” or the “Company”) (TSXV: GENE; OTC: IVITF; FRA: 8IS1) is pleased to announce it has signed a non-binding Letter of Intent (“LOI”), executed on June 13, 2018, to sell dried cannabis to a German importer and distributor of medical cannabis (the “Importer”). The Company will initially commit to selling 1,000 kgs of dried cannabis flower per annum at a price of $6.50 per gram. The volumes and respective prices of dried cannabis flower for the second and consecutive years will be defined in a Definitive Offtake Agreement (the “Offtake Agreement”).
The Importer, whose name will remain undisclosed until execution of the Offtake Agreement, combines a highly competitive business model with a vast distribution network of 20,000 pharmacies and a clear focus on product marketing and professional education. The Importer’s experienced management team previously led an international joint venture successfully to the final stage of the German tender for domestic cannabis production and unites the expertise of medical professionals, experts in pharmaceutical regulatory law as well as experienced entrepreneurs. This unique combination will serve to ensure the secure and reliable import and distribution of Invictus’ products to the exponentially growing market in Germany and Europe.
Prior to any shipment of dried cannabis flower to the German market Invictus must first obtain an export permit from Health Canada as well as a Good Manufacturing Practice (“GMP”) certification, in accordance with the rules governing medicinal products in the European Union. The EU-GMP certification is a requirement to distribute medical cannabis to Germany and across the European Union. The Importer must also obtain an import permit.
Independent from the Offtake Agreement, the Company and the Importer will also explore obtaining a cultivation license in Germany.
We continue to explore opportunities for sales and distribution beyond our nation’s borders to countries, like Germany, that welcome legalized medical cannabis products. These new relationships will diversify our operations and further allow us to become Canada’s Cannabis Company, and beyond.
