How it works

How cannabis is sold in Antioquia (Medellín)

Antioquia combines industrial cannabis production with a lively home-grow culture in Medellín. PharmaCielo runs its cultivation and extraction centre in Rionegro, near José María Córdova airport, where the company reports 12 hectares of greenhouses and four harvests a year, and it exports flower and extracts to Europe, Australia and elsewhere. Like other licensed producers, it does not sell to the public.

In Medellín, grow shops in shopping centres such as Premium Plaza sell equipment and give cultivation advice to adults growing a few plants for their own use, which Colombian law allows without a licence as long as nothing is supplied to others. Medical patients follow the national route: a prescription and a certified pharmacy that prepares cannabis formulas.

Public use is regulated by the city. Legal summaries note that Medellín sets exclusion zones around schools, parks and similar places and can fine offenders. Selling cannabis without a licence remains a crime anywhere in the department.
