    In Their Words

    “We were interested in exploring the international market for cannabis, GACP certification is an integral part in opening doors to potential buyers. Many of the conversations we were having with people in the international space were adamant that it is something we would need to begin our process of finding a long term partnership oversees.”

    “GACP”

    “Yes, it did. Since we acquired the certification in September, we have had conversations with Companies that operate within Germany, UK, Portugal, Australia and Czech Republic.”

    “Yes, in almost every case that was a topic early in the conversation. Without it, further talks were paused for many customers.”

    “It has linked us to buyers that otherwise would not have considered our product. This speaks volumes as finding the right partner for your products is essential to navigating the cannabis space.”

    “It improved our SOPs to have proper detail surrounding some of our processes that we do. Our day-to-day operations around sanitation were always of a higher standard – however the process of getting the certification helped our team buy in to the “Why” of going over and above Health Canada standards.”

    “Finding long term partnerships with international supply chains.”

    “We had an excellent experience working with Control Union to achieve our Good Agricultural and Collection Practices (GACP) certification. Their team was knowledgeable, responsive, and highly supportive throughout the entire process. They provided clear guidance at every stage, making what appeared to be an intimidating certification straightforward and manageable. Thanks to their support, we were able to move forward with confidence and successfully meet GACP requirements.”
