Cannasouth Limited (NZX:CBD) has exported to Australia its first commercial shipment of its high-purity cannabidiol (CBD) isolate, a cannabis-based, active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). This is a first for Aotearoa New Zealand’s medicinal cannabis industry.

This CBD isolate was manufactured in New Zealand to PIC/s Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards and verified by the Medicinal Cannabis Agency. This first shipment is the forerunner of greater volumes of API exports for the local industry, signalling the demand for high-quality, GMP certified cannabis-based APIs on the international stage.

This signals the next growth phase for Cannasouth and the medicinal cannabis industry.
