Brazil’s Legalization of Medical Cannabis Opens up New Market Opportunity for Terrace Global

Business Wire
Terrace Global Inc. (“Terrace Global” or the
“Company”) (TSXV:TRCE), a multi-country operator focused on
the development and acquisitions of international cannabis assets,
believes it is well-positioned to capitalize on this week’s
announcement, by Brazil’s National Agency for Health Surveillance
(“Anvisa”), approving the importation and sale of medical
cannabis while, at the same time prohibiting domestic
cultivation.
With its operations in neighbouring Uruguay—including a 150-acre
hemp cultivation facility and 33.75% ownership of one of just two
recreational cannabis licenses in Uruguay—Terrace Global is poised
to be a significant participant in the Brazil market, facilitated
by the South American trade agreement known as Mercosur.
“We welcome this announcement by Anvisa, the Brazilian health
authority,” comments Francisco Ortiz von Bismarck, Co-Founder and
CEO of Terrace Global. “With our close geographic proximity to
Brazil and significant cost advantages over Canadian producers,
this is a tremendous opportunity for our Company to be early
entrants into Brazil, the largest country in South America with a
population of over 200 million people.”
In addition to Uruguay, Terrace Global has operations in Spain
and in Portugal – a country with strong, established economic and
social ties with Brazil – where its building up to 350,000 square
foot medical cannabis greenhouse facility just outside of
Lisbon.
“We are building a company that is distinguishable from other
cannabis companies in North America,” added Mr. Ortiz von Bismarck.
“We have acquired assets in countries where the growing climate and
capex requirements allow for viable businesses. It is this strategy
that best positions us to take advantage of the international
liberalization of cannabis laws.”
It is expected that Anvisa’s new rules will be published in the
country’s official gazette in the next several days and come into
force ninety days thereafter.
