Focus Foundation Of Cannabis Unified Standards

Founded in 2014 as The Cannabis Health and Safety Organization, FOCUS addresses the many short comings in quality, safety, and consistency that became evident with the explosive growth of the global legal cannabis industry. FOCUS is an international, non-profit, cannabis standards development & third-party certification organization dedicated to protecting public health, consumer safety and safeguarding the environment. FOCUS is not an advocacy organization, nor an industry trade association. FOCUS does not accept membership dues or fees for standards development. This autonomy fosters a principled, objective environment that serves end users, providing an impartial bridge between industry and regulatory. FOCUS Standards represent the first cannabis Quality Management System (QMS) standards detailing current good manufacturing practice (cGMP) guidelines for all key areas of the cannabis industry including Cultivation, Manufacturing, Retail, and Laboratory. Each management system standard includes requirements for packaging &, labeling, storage, security, transport, and sustainability. FOCUS certification is designed around proven processes for quality and safety. It is a partnership designed to help cannabis businesses achieve their goals and vision, improve efficiency, remain compliant, and minimize risks. Learn more at www.focusstandards.org
