This unique synchronization of these two State of the Art Laboratories gives THC the edge it requires in becoming a leader in Cannabis Scientific Research, Analysis and Development. The closeness in proximity of the labs coupled with the synergizing of scientists and instruments has created a world class testing and research facility.

"It is mandatory to conduct analytical testing of dried marijuana or derivatives for microbial and chemical contaminants, along with determining the percentages of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol and Cannabidiol. We are very proud in achieving this milestone of creating a Word class licenced 3rd party Cannabis Scientific Research, Analysis and Development Laboratory .I am excited at the opportunity to have capture one of the very few Cannabis Dealers Licences in Canada and look forward to generating profitable revenue from this Vertical."
