Subsidiary Kannaway® Opens New Office and Warehouse in Johannesburg, South Africa
In this regard, it is perhaps also important to note that Medical Marijuana is the first publicly traded cannabis company in the United States and has introduced a wide range of cannabis based products over the years. Yesterday, the company came into focus after it announced that it had established a new warehouse and a new office in South Africa.
The warehouse in question spans across an area of as much as 3326 square foot and is located not far from the city of Johannesburg. It was also pointed out that the location makes it perfect for easy access.
The company noted yesterday that it had made South Africa a focal point of its thrust to drive international growth and hence, the development was a significant one for a number of reasons. It now remains to be seen if the stock can manage to hold on to its momentum and add to its gains.
