Creso Pharma Limited (ASX: CPH | FRA: 1X8) has signed a commercial agreement with DHS Business Portugal to introduce the group’s products into the Portuguese and Spanish markets, effectively expanding the company’s presence in Europe.

DHS has been active in the healthcare markets since 1991 through its involvement in strategic consulting and commercialization operations in the US, Brazil, Latin America, Africa (Angola, Mozambique) and Portugal.

Creso established itself as a premium global standard developer of cannabis and hemp derived therapeutic, nutraceutical, and life style products with wide patient and consumer reach for human and animal health.

In conjunction with DHS Business, Creso intends to initially focus its products on cannaDOL® 0.5% and 1% CBD topical gels to support the improvement of mobility.

These products target the sports population but also the demographic with diminished mobility due to Rheumatoid Arthritis and Arthrosis.

Further, Creso will also consider products sales of cannaQIX ®oral care addressing the needs of stress reduction and providing benefits for oral care management.

Creso and DHS Business are working on implementation plans, with a view to first products being sold in Spain and Portugal in the March quarter of 2021.
