About MediPharm Labs
Founded in 2015, MediPharm Labs specializes in the development
and manufacture of purified, pharmaceutical-quality cannabis
concentrates, active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) and advanced
derivative products utilizing a Good Manufacturing Practices
certified facility with ISO standard-built clean rooms. MediPharm
Labs has invested in an expert, research driven team,
state-of-the-art technology, downstream purification methodologies
and purpose-built facilities with five primary extraction lines for
delivery of pure, trusted and precision-dosed cannabis products for
its customers. MediPharm Labs develops, formulates, processes,
packages and distributes cannabis and advanced cannabinoid-based
products to domestic and international medical markets.
In 2021, MediPharm Labs received a Pharmaceutical Drug
Establishment License from Health Canada, becoming the only company
in North America to hold a
commercial-scale domestic Good Manufacturing License ("GMP") for
the extraction of multiple natural cannabinoids. This GMP license
was the first step in the Company's current foreign drug
manufacturing site registration with the US Food and Drug
Administration.
In 2023, MediPharm acquired VIVO Cannabis Inc. which expanded
MediPharm's reach to medical patients in Canada via Canna Farms medical ecommerce
platform, and in Australia and
Germany through Beacon Medical PTY
and Beacon Medical GMBH. This acquisition also included Harvest
Medical Clinics in Canada which
provides medical cannabis patients with Physician consultations for
medical cannabis education and prescriptions. The Company carries
out its operations in compliance with all applicable laws in the
countries in which it operates.
