ENLIGHTEN CANNABIS
Westmoreland, Jamaica
Committed to sustainable production of exceptional quality Jamaican cannabis flower and to empowering traditional ganja farmers to grow for the medical cannabis industry.
Enlighten Cannabis was formed to sustainably cultivate, process, and distribute premium sun-grown Jamaican craft cannabis. In partnership with the island's traditional ganja farmers, Enlighten will produce quality flower products for domestic and global markets, highlighting Jamaica as the place of origin. Enlighten's plans include establishing licensed cannabis farms in select locations island-wide, in communities where Jamaica's finest quality ganja is grown.
Enlighten Development is spearheading project planning and business development. Our aim is to bring the island's world-renowned ganja to the global market, providing cannabis patients access to premium organic Jamaican flower products, while empowering traditional ganja farmers to produce for the medical cannabis industry.
​
Enlighten Cannabis will develop products and services designed for Jamaica's emerging cannabis-centric tourism market and for travelers who come to the island to enjoy legal access to cannabis while on vacation.
"The cannabis product and its application could fit neatly in a network of health and wellness that could drive a new demographic into Jamaica with a higher spend, and which will be able to establish us as a destination with a difference.”
Jamaica's Minister of Tourism, Edmund Bartlett
