Abattis Announces Zoning Approval on the Experion MMPR Application
VANCOUVER, B.C., Oct. 8, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Abattis Bioceuticals Corp. (the “Company” or “Abattis”) (ATTBF) (CSE:ATT), a specialty biotechnology company focused on cultivating, licensing, and marketing proprietary ingredients, bio-similar compounds, equipment, and consulting services to North American medicinal markets, today announced that through its wholly owned subsidiary, Northern Vine Canada Inc. (“Northern Vine”), Experion Biotechnologies Inc. (“Experion“) has received a written update from the Fraser Valley Regional District on the amended zoning regulations for its property which has now been approved for… “the use of cultivation, growth, storage, or distribution, testing, or research, of marijuana for medical purposes as lawfully permitted and authorized under the applicable federal or provincial law.”
On April 10th 2014 Abattis announced that its subsidiary, Northern Vine and Experion completed a 25% share exchange. Experion has a lease on a 10-acre property located in the Fraser Valley Regional District in British Columbia and is in the late stages of the MMPR License application process. Experion has passed all security checks, submitted its SOP’s and is awaiting the letter to build.
The company has received many calls from investors and shareholders asking about the status of the three licenses our companies have applied for. We respond on time to each request from Health Canada, who has been very clear and succinct with its requests for clarification on our applications. Northern Vine is also progressing with its Controlled Substance “Dealers” License and has submitted its security plan for its lab in Langley BC. We have an open dialogue with the Office of Controlled Substances “OCS” and respond in a prompt manner to comments and requests of the OCS.
BioCell Labs Inc. application “The Quebec Application” now is entering the Security Clearances stage. The MMPR application process is an important process for both Health Canada and applicants to go through. The process ensures that only quality operators that meet the strictest of standards are awarded the License to Produce Medical Marijuana and we support this approach.
Abattis CEO Mike Withrow commented, “We appreciate the thorough extent of the application and licensing process and want to keep our shareholders notified that we are making positive progress toward obtaining the licenses we have applied for. We continue to get closer to meeting all of the requirements needed to obtain LP status on the properties and will continue to communicate milestones as they are reached.”
