GreenBe Pharma supports this initiative with a modernized infrastructure and compliance with GACP and GMP standards. Their facilities are designed to maintain stringent environmental controls, incorporate rigorous processing protocols, and the highest standard of quality & control, positioning European producers for higher yields, superior product quality, and more reliable outcomes.
"Partnering with GreenBe Pharma propels our mission to increase global accessibility to premium cannabis genetics,” said Jamie Blundell, CEO of Segra International.
