Poland is set to significantly increase the import cap on medical cannabis based on continually expanding demand in what is fast becoming one of Europe’s most exciting markets.
According to new documents seen by Business of Cannabis, Poland’s chief pharmaceutical inspectorate – which is tasked with “supervising the manufacture and marketing of medicinal products” – says the estimated annual demand for medical cannabis in Poland has almost doubled.
As Poland, which legalized medical cannabis in 2017, is reliant on imports to supply its rapidly expanding medical cannabis market, the cap on import limits is set to be raised by more than 5 tonnes (roughly 2,200 pounds), to 11 tonnes.
As such, Polish medical cannabis businesses have already moved quickly to secure increased import licenses to fulfil demand.
