FAQ
- Does lawful private cannabis use allow a business to sell cannabis?No. The Cannabis for Private Purposes Act regulates private use and expressly prohibits dealing. Verify the exact commercial model, product and customer before valuing revenue, and obtain specialist advice on the licences or exemptions actually required.
- Which SAHPRA approvals should I check for medicinal cannabis operations?Verify the section 22C licence holder, licensed site, approved activities and current conditions for cultivation, manufacture, import, export or distribution. Compare these with actual operations and obtain written guidance on any ownership-change or amendment process.
- Can a cannabis licence simply transfer to the buyer?Do not assume it can. SAHPRA evaluates the legal entity, premises, security, personnel and activities. Structure completion around written regulatory confirmation, required amendments or a new application, especially in an asset purchase or premises change.
- What operating records reveal whether a cannabis facility is compliant?Inspect security access, seed-to-sale traceability, cultivation and batch records, testing, deviations, waste destruction, complaints and recalls. Compare physical inventory with records and investigate any product whose source, cannabinoid content or lawful destination is unclear.
- What should I verify when the business sells CBD or hemp products?Check each product's composition, claims, scheduling status and intended use, then identify applicable SAHPRA, food, agricultural or import requirements. Review certificates of analysis, supplier authorisations, labels and advertising rather than relying on the term hemp.
- How should I assess commercial risk in a cannabis acquisition?Separate fully authorised revenue from speculative markets, applications and informal sales. Verify banking, payment processing, customer contracts, export permissions and insurance, then stress-test the valuation for regulatory delays, licence conditions, crop loss and unsaleable inventory.
