Residents in Islington, St Mary, are embracing a multimillion-dollar marijuana industry investment in their community.
Castleblack is in the licensing phase of business and is expected to be in full operation later this year.
When the Jamaica Observer North & East visited the Nut Field district of Islington recently the 28-acre property was abuzz with activity as construction of what is expected to be one of Jamaica's largest medical marijuana businesses was under way.
The property will have over 100,000-square-foot of greenhouse space with 32 greenhouses expected to be built starting this month going into April. There will also be a 60,000-square-foot lab and a 15,000-square-foot main office and residence for guests and doctors.
Aron Cadeau, CEO of Castleblack, out of Ontario Canada, said he hopes to create a great impact worldwide in the marijuana industry through Castleblack's investment in Jamaica.
“We have actually moved down to Jamaica so we can start producing medical marijuana for a number of products that we have developed over the last several years,” he said.
He said Castleblack will create an impact and is hoping regulations will soon allow for exportation.
