We are currently designing state of the art climate-controlled GAP compliant greenhouse facilities to be built throughout our initial 3 hectare sites. These are being designed and provided by industry leading specialists, while also using local skilled and unskilled labour for installation. Apart from fencing we have a highly experienced 24hr armed on site security team as well as advanced Security systems that includes CCTV. The infrastructure includes backup generators, storage, onsite maintenance and renewable energy assets. We stand together with our international partners and experts / consultants who we have engaged to provide skills transfer to local skilled & unskilled people.
Lesotho being in such a high altitude, means there is little to no pollutants which will result in our product being some of the best in the world. Lesotho is already known historically for growing top grade cannabis with ease. This is mainly due to its unique topography, mineral rich soils and second to none natural spring water

CGI PlC’s commitment to ongoing communication and consultation with the community, via Liaison Representative Committees (LRC), is working very well. Through these communication forums CGI Plc has been alerted to and will subsequently be funding numerous community needs – from improving water supply and sanitation, waste management to planting fruit trees in the village.
According to our estimations, CGI PlC will initially be creating more than 50 permanent jobs for this facility, including locally trained growers while in full production. In Lesotho's rural economy, one employed member of the family supports as many as ten people in the extended household.
CGI PLC is creating a portfolio of cannabis and hemp-related Intellectual Property assets that meet clear commercial needs which offer our shareholders best-in-class returns. CGI’s long term strategy is to be the global leader in the production of medical, recreational cannabinoid extracts, oils, nutraceuticals, and pharmaceuticals with a solid set of highly developed IP assets. These assets will be licensed to companies capable of delivering our revolutionary cannabis based products to the global market place.
