On December 19, 2019, Inovatia Laboratories, LLC was awarded a medical marijuana testing facility license. Located in Fayette, Mo, this company has been in business since 1994. I’m very excited that a hometown, Missouri-owned company has brought home one of these licenses.
I do understand that the real work will now begin and it may be months before any testing facility will be tooled and approved to offer services to the industry. If awarded a cultivation license, Lit Naturals will certainly come to enjoy an ongoing relationship with Inovatia Laboratories, LLC. How great would it be to have the ability to deliver samples via bicycle? Ok, so this may not be practical, but it would be possible in theory!
I hope to hear some announcements in the coming weeks as to the company’s plans. Hopefully those plans will include the ability to test samples from patient cultivators. Not only would this be another potential revenue stream, but I think it would be a great service to those patients. Caregivers who are legally producing medicine for patients would be able to have their materials safety tested. Knowing the specific cannabinoid content of cannabis medicine will also be extremely beneficial for patients who have specific medical needs.
Welcome to the industry!
