The company, founded in 2019, is behind Scotland's first medicinal cannabis farm in Dumfries and Galloway.The firm said when fully operational, it will have the potential to supply more than 10% of the UK market and will create dozens of local jobs. Founder and chief executive Hamish Clegg said:"We are building a business around the three key pillars of health innovation, environmental sustainability, and community impact.
"Although medicinal cannabis use is growing, the UK relies solely on imports and we understand there is a problem with the reliability of the supply chain. "We aim to provide an affordable, high-quality solution to treat conditions ranging from chronic pain to severe epilepsy, while easing pressure on the NHS. We plan to rival other countries such as Canada, Germany and Israel with our own reliable supply from the hills of Scotland."
