Zimmer & Co. is a health and wellness distribution enterprise focused on medicinal cannabis and hemp-based products.  Our primary market is the Caribbean where the principals have almost 50 combined professional years encompassing sales, marketing, business development, entrepreneurship, management and customer service.

 

The company presently has a portfolio of products that have been approved for sale in Jamaica by the Ministry of Health.  The Jamaican market is in its infancy and Zimmer & Co. is one of the first companies to bring product to market in the island.  The company has identified and targeted over 500 retail outlets including pharmacies, spas, medical professionals (doctors, nurses, naturopaths and pharmacists) and other retail outlets in the island that will give it access to the market of 7.2 Million which includes residents and tourists.

 

In Jamaica, the Ministry of Health must approve all cannabis, hemp, hemp oil, CBD, THC and other related products to be sold in Jamaica.  It is also respected throughout the region for its high standards; accordingly passage here is positively considered for access to other markets.

 

Zimmer & Co. will work in partnership with distributors, wholesalers and retailers throughout the region to sell its products.  The Caribbean market has an audience that exceeds 60 Million inclusive of residents and tourists.  We will play an active role in the development of the industry in Jamaica by supporting education and small business initiatives that will see the industry rise as an economic force and significant contributor to the economies of the Caribbean.
