BOCA RATON, Fla., June 22, 2020, -PRESS RELEASE- ACS Laboratory, a DEA- and AHCA-licensed cannabis testing facility, announced it acquired Botanica Testing Inc., a certified hemp and CBD testing laboratory. Botanica has a portfolio of 500 clients and a reputation for quality that aligns with ACS's standards and ongoing expansion across the U.S.

This acquisition expands ACS's multi-state reach in the hemp and CBD market, offering an extensive range of hemp testing options from pre-planting to post-production. As ACS continues to expand its client base, it seeks to extend its footprint through future acquisitions as well.
