"It's exciting to reach new milestones as we begin commercial production,” said Brian Athaide, CEO of TGOD. “Growing certified organic cannabis at scale is a highly complex process which has taken time, great care and extensive research to refine.”
Each of TGOD’s facilities goes through a robust certification process, according to Athaide.
"The proprietary methods our team has developed leverage the benefits of growing in living soil and guarantees the organic integrity of the products throughout the entire production chain,” he said in a statement.
The Pro-Cert recognition is one of many for the Toronto-based licensed producer. It comes in addition to previously certified growing facilities in Canada and Europe.
