Green Life Goes Global: Introducing Green Life Business International

Introducing Green Life Business International, the nation’s largest business brokerage, now in Canada and Europe. The cannabis industry is entering a new phase—one defined less by speculation and more by structure. In the United States, the federal move toward rescheduling serves as a marker of broader momentum. Around the world, that same momentum is taking shape at different speeds: medical programs are expanding, adult-use frameworks are emerging, and regulators, operators, and investors are converging on a common reality. Cannabis is becoming a regulated, mainstream category in more places than ever before.

This global shift opens doors, but it also raises the bar. In a highly regulated industry, opportunity does not favor the loudest story. It favors the best-prepared business, the clearest compliance posture, and the most credible path from interest to transaction.

A New Chapter for Global Cannabis Brokerage

To meet this evolving landscape, we are pleased to share the launch of Green Life Business® International, Inc. (GLBI). Formed by the owners of Green Life Business Group®, Inc., GLBI is built to bring a proven U.S. brokerage and advisory model to legal cannabis markets worldwide. For more than a decade, Green Life has helped connect buyers and sellers across the United States with a process rooted in professionalism and confidentiality. Now, GLBI extends that foundation internationally, meeting a growing demand for a trusted platform where legal cannabis business owners can advertise businesses for sale and engage qualified buyers across borders.

Navigating a Patchwork of Global Markets

The international market is not one single entity. It is a patchwork of nation-states, each with its own licensing rules, compliance requirements, and transaction realities.

Mature Markets: Some jurisdictions are already commercialized and established.

Emerging Frameworks: Others are expanding rapidly through medical frameworks.

Early Infrastructure: New markets are currently developing the infrastructure needed to support sustainable growth.

What ties them together is direction: legalization is expanding, operators are professionalizing, and capital is becoming more disciplined. As these markets evolve, more owners will look toward succession plans, partnerships, or exits, while buyers seek out compliant, well-run assets. The question is whether those parties can find each other through a process that protects confidentiality, respects local law, and supports an efficient close. GLBI was built to answer that question.

Strategic Global Footprint

GLBI is beginning with an initial focus in Germany, Portugal, Denmark, the United Kingdom, Poland, and Canada. These markets were selected for a simple reason: they represent a combination of meaningful legal frameworks, clear regulatory direction, and real demand for sophisticated transaction support. Some offer scale and influence, some offer strong structure and standards, and some provide established deal flow and mature operator experience. Together, they form an intelligent starting footprint for building a responsible international platform that can expand market by market, with discipline.

What GLBI Delivers

At its core, GLBI aims to connect qualified buyers with credible sellers across the cannabis vertical, guiding both sides through a professional transaction process designed for regulated markets.

For Sellers: GLBI provides support beginning with valuation and positioning, continuing through confidential marketing, buyer qualification, and negotiation.

For Buyers and Investors: GLBI offers access to opportunities across multiple jurisdictions, supported by structured diligence coordination to help assess risk and readiness.

Across the Vertical: Transactions are supported across cultivation, manufacturing, distribution, retail, and ancillary services.

The objective is not simply volume; it is fit, quality, and professional execution. In an industry where details determine outcomes, the right match and a rigorous process can make the difference between a concept and a completed deal.

Global Reach, Local Compliance

GLBI is headed by Andrew Mathews, CEO of Green Life Business Group®, Inc., with operations led by Gordon K. Sattro, Chief Operating Officer of GLBI. Supported by a robust international team and Wicker Law Group, we are designed to bring global reach without losing the rigor that regulated markets demand.

The cannabis industry is going global. The companies positioned for success will be those that treat growth, compliance, and transactions with the seriousness they require. Green Life helped open the United States to buyers and sellers alike. With GLBI is building the next chapter: a global platform designed to connect legal operators with qualified buyers worldwide and help move opportunities forward with confidence.
