Georgia Awards Medical Cannabis License to Natures GA, LLC
Company will develop state of the art cultivation and processing facility in Dublin, GA
DUBLIN, Ga., July 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Nature's GA, LLC, which is operated by Nature's Medicines, announced today that on July 24, 2021, the Georgia Access to Medical Cannabis Commission announced its decision to award a Class 2 Low-THC Oil Production License to the company. Two years after the passage of Georgia's Hope Act (House Bill 324), the Commission used a competitive scoring process which resulted in licenses for only six of the 69 applications which were submitted in January 2021.
"We want to thank the Georgia Access to Medical Cannabis Commission for its hard work, particularly given the many challenges the COVID pandemic presented," stated Jigar Patel, President and CEO of Nature's Medicines. "We are honored to have been awarded this license as a result of a very competitive process. Our proposed cultivation and processing facility, which will be in Dublin, Georgia, will result in the creation of at least 180 new jobs to meet anticipated market demand."
As part of the application process, in December 2020 Nature's GA, LLC entered into a binding letter of intent and real estate purchase option on 20 acres of property in Dublin, GA, which is owned by the Dublin-Laurens Development Authority. Over the next year, Nature's GA, LLC plans to conclude the purchase agreement for the site and will design and construct a 50,000 square foot cultivation and processing facility.
"We looked at sites across the state and truly appreciated the hospitality and collaborative attitude of the Dublin-Laurens County Development Authority and many other local officials and stakeholders who will be key to our success in Georgia. We look forward to many partnerships with local and minority owned businesses as construction of the project starts in the near future," added Mr. Patel.
