Cultivation in entire 160,000 sq.
Added on 15 June 2020
On March 13, 2020, the Company secured its initial cultivation licence authorizing operations in 70,000 sq. ft. of the Niagara Facility. The Company may now commence operations in the remaining 90,000 sq. ft. of the facility following changes to site plan approval requirements announced by Health Canada on May 12, 2020. Health Canada no longer requires licence amendment applications for certain site plan changes, as long as they are within an approved building that already appears on the previously issued licence.
"This is an incredibly important breakthrough for Aleafia Health. We can now fully leverage the advanced automation built into the Niagara Facility, including automated moving container benches which allow for a perpetual, year-round harvest," said Aleafia Health CEO Geoffrey Benic. "The Niagara Facility provides both near term, stable inventory for our health and wellness sales channels, and the inputs needed for the 2020 outdoor cultivation season."
