Cannabiz report on the following deal.
Now the Chinese have a firm grip in the global cannabis black market it appears that somebody in Beijing has quietly given the green light for investors/companies to operate in the legal market.
The dichotomy may not be immediately obvious to some but there you go, that’s what happens when you mix-up technocratic communists, capitalists, and legal or is it illegal drugs
In the end money always wins the day and so on and so forth.
Reading up about the company (see below) it’s obvious that thier size means they can only operate with Govt approval on what they do
