A German firm has launched a new platform to help cannabis cultivators from across the globe enter the European market.<\/h3>\n

Cantourage was founded with the aim of giving cultivators around the world the tools they need to break into the growing sector.<\/p>\n

At least 10 cultivators from countries as varied as Jamaica, Portugal and Uruguay are already using the firm’s services to attain ‘fast track access’ to the continent’s market.<\/p>\n

Cantourage allows suppliers to sell their product under their own brand heading but with logistical support behind the scenes through its ‘disruptor’ platform, as well as marketing.<\/p>\n

Complex regulations<\/a> are a significant barrier for international firms looking to set up shop in Europe.<\/p>\n

Despite some harmonisation through the EU, laws and bureaucratic systems vary significantly from one country to the next, setting up a series of hoops for companies to jump through.<\/p>\n

The importance of key non-EU markets like the UK and Switzerland<\/a> further adds to the regulatory pressures on new arrivals.<\/p>\n

Philip Schetter, co-CEO of Cantourage, said: “We look forward to expanding our offering with the launch of our platform, which kicks off with more than 10 partners from all continents.<\/p>\n

“The current European market is dominated by just a few companies.<\/p>\n

“Market entrants face many hurdles when trying to enter these profitable markets. We empower cultivators and offer them fast-tracked, secure European market access, while helping them grow their brand.”<\/p>\n

The company is already profitable and ‘set up to scale at high speed’ after closing its Series B funding round which was led by long term partner Think.Health Venture<\/p>\n

Cantourage<\/a> boasts a team which has ’25-plus years of experience’ and a ‘deep understanding of the market’.<\/p>\n

Dr. Florian Holzapfel, co-founder, said: “Our platform expands and enhances the offering to patients and healthcare providers in Europe, in terms of both product and pricing.<\/p>\n

“More importantly, Cantourage guarantees the highest European quality standards for flowers from all over the world. We are set to revolutionise the market.”<\/p>\n
