GRANTS, NEW MEXICO, Aug. 21, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bright Green Corporation (Nasdaq: BGXX) (“Bright Green” or the “Company”) today announced that it has signed a letter of intent to supply its DEA-approved marijuana extracts and plant-based psychedelics to Benuvia Operations, a FDA registered, DEA licensed and cGMP certified leader in pharmaceutical cannabinoids, as well as psychedelic molecules currently under investigation for clinical use.

This completely homegrown agreement signals Bright Green’s ability and commitment to supply US pharmaceutical partners with high quality organic materials. As part of the supply agreement proposed in the LOI, Benuvia intends to leverage Bright Green’s unique position to produce Schedule I & II raw materials in full compliance with Good Agricultural and Collection Practices (GACP), Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), and the DEA, all within the USA, to produce domestically manufactured cGMP pharmaceutical-grade Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (“APIs”) for US and global markets.

Bright Green sees this as yet another step towards becoming the leading domestic supplier of DEA controlled, plant-based raw materials to produce cannabinoid, psychedelic and opioid based drugs in the USA. With a new round of fundraising and supply agreements in the works, Bright Green is positioned for a strong performance in 2025.

The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) just completed its annual operational procedures for all its Schedule I & II drug cultivation and manufacturing in July. Bright Green meets this high national standard and is now one step closer to beginning operations and supplying the pharmaceutical world with the materials it needs to innovate.
