Brand Heritage and European Expansion

Tweed, established in Canada over ten years ago, brings significant experience from both medical and adult-use markets globally. The brand's entry into Germany represents a strategic enhancement of Canopy Growth's European presence, particularly focusing on meeting the increasing demand for high-THC genetics in the medical sector.

Supply Chain Integration

The company's multi-faceted supply strategy involves:
  • Partnership with Portuguese cultivator Gro-Vida for EU-based production
  • Collaboration with German distributor Cansativa GmbH
  • Continued supply from Canopy's EU-GMP certified Canadian facility
This integrated approach aims to ensure consistent product availability and maintain high quality standards across the German medical cannabis market, enabling healthcare practitioners to confidently prescribe Tweed products to their patients.
