Flora Growth’s (NASDAQ: FLGC), a leading all-outdoor cultivator and manufacturer of global cannabis products and brands, has named Derek Pedro, an industry-leading cannabis genetics and cultivation expert, as an advisor. Pedro is recognized as a pioneer in the cannabis industry and has consulted on cannabis genetic and cultivation projects around the world, including Canada, the United States, Latin America, Europe and China. In his role at FLGC, he will focus on developing the company’s current register of high-THC and high-CBD strains. The company hopes to offer cannabis flower offerings that are uniquely Colombian to both domestic and international markets.
