“We are excited to conclude this transaction, as we continue to build and expand our company through strategic acquisitions. Analytical testing is a key “picks and shovels” type component within the cannabis and emerging psychedelic sector,” Steve Singh, CEO of Canbud, said in a release. More importantly, we have witnessed increased calls for regulations mandating third-party independent testing which protects all key stakeholders especially consumers. 

Singh added that MSC’s services are an integral part of the regulatory supply chain which will help fuel the company’s growth.
