Willow
Biosciences Inc. (CSE: WLLW) (OTCQB: CANSF), a Canadian biotechnology
company and a leading developer in biosynthetically produced cannabidiol
(“CBD”), this morning issued a release commenting on the recent news that the
U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (“DEA”) has removed Purisys, LLC’s CBD from
Schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act (“CSA”). Purisys, the spin-out
entity of Noramco, Inc.’s cannabinoids business, began operating as a
stand-alone entity on October 1, 2019 and is expected to become independent
from Noramco on January 1, 2020. Per the terms of a joint development
agreement, Noramco is Willow’s exclusive manufacturing and distribution
partner. Willow holds an informal partnership with Purisys through the
agreement as well. “The descheduling of our partner Purisys’ CBD from the CSA
signals a fundamental change in how the regulatory bodies in the United States
view ultra-pure CBD,” Willow Biosciences president and CEO Trevor Peters stated
in the news release. “At Willow, we have always maintained the view that as the
market for CBD continues to unfold in the United States there will be an
increased amount of oversight into the quality of the manufacturing process in
addition to the specifications around the molecule itself. The partnership
strives to produce ingredients that are of the highest quality and consistency.
As we move towards commercialization of CBD, we believe a significant portion
of the pharmaceutical and consumer products industries will desire the
ultra-pure, consistent, and cost-effective ingredients that the partnership
will be able to provide.”
