  • The demanding but desirable EU Good Manufacturing Practices certification allows companies to sell within the European Union.
  • Zenabis argued it “has obtained EU-GMP approval through its Malta-based European partner, ZenPharm Limited, “in which it owns a 43.5% stake.”
  • In response, Materia Ventures CEO Deepak Anand called the company out, noting “Getting an export permit to ship products for process validation [does not equal] getting ‘EU-GMP Approval’ […] Definately [sic] not EU-GMP!” Anand called upon the company to specify “who gave them this EU-GMP Approval.” They did not.
