The questions buyers ask.

We would rather answer a hard question now than at the shipping stage.

01How do I become a supplier to Green Pharma?

Green Pharma welcomes discussions with licensed cannabis producers and prospective supply partners.

Potential suppliers are assessed based on their licensing and compliance status, product quality, specifications, testing, traceability, available volumes and intended market requirements.

02Can Green Pharma help bridge the gap between GACP cultivation and GMP requirements?

Yes. This is one of the primary reasons Green Pharma was established.

GACP provides the foundation for compliant cultivation and handling of medicinal cannabis, but regulated pharmaceutical markets can require additional GMP manufacturing, quality, testing, packaging and documentation controls before a product can progress through the pharmaceutical supply chain.

Green Pharma was specifically established to provide this critical GMP step, helping bridge the gap between licensed GACP production and the requirements of regulated pharmaceutical markets.

03Is Green Pharma cGMP licensed?

Yes. Green Pharma operates as a SAHPRA-licensed cGMP medicinal cannabis manufacturing facility in South Africa.

Our facility was purpose-built around pharmaceutical quality systems and GMP principles, with a particular focus on providing third-party contract manufacturing and packaging services to the medicinal cannabis industry.

All activities are conducted within Green Pharma’s approved licence scope and applicable regulatory requirements.

04What manufacturing activities does Green Pharma offer, and are you expanding?

Green Pharma currently provides specialised cGMP manufacturing and packaging services within our approved regulatory scope, including primary and secondary packaging, weighing, labelling, controlled product handling, quality management and associated batch documentation.

Green Pharma is also entering its next phase of development. We are progressing plans to significantly expand our facility and broaden our future manufacturing capabilities to include additional processing activities such as extraction, formulation and other value-added pharmaceutical manufacturing services.

These additional capabilities will be introduced subject to the necessary facility development, validation and regulatory approvals.

05Is Green Pharma EU GMP certified?

Green Pharma is currently progressing its EU GMP certification pathway.

Following the successful completion of our South African licensing process, EU GMP represents an important next stage in the development of our facility and international manufacturing capabilities.

Until this certification process has been successfully completed, Green Pharma does not represent itself as EU GMP certified.
