Kanaprima grows EU-certified high-CBD hemp seeds for European processors. It is raising €450K to double its greenhouse area to 1,600 m², build a testing laboratory and take seed output from 6M to 12M units a year.

Kanaprima EOOD is a licensed Bulgarian agricultural company focused on the cultivation and wholesale distribution of high-CBD hemp seeds. Operating within the upstream segment of the hemp supply chain, the company specializes in certified seed production for industrial clients in the nutraceutical, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical sectors. It does not engage in biomass processing or product manufacturing, maintaining a lean operational focus for regulatory simplicity and cost efficiency.
Established in October 2024, the company obtained its cultivation license from the Bulgarian Ministry of Agriculture in January 2025. The license, valid through January 2028, permits the production of EU-certified hemp strains with a THC content below 0.3%.
Leadership
Kanaprima is led by its founder and CEO, Vladislav Oleg Ivanov, a logistics and agricultural trade specialist with over 13 years of experience. He directly oversees commercial strategy, client relations, and operational planning.
Operations and infrastructure
The company operates on a leased site comprising:
Initial test batches were carried out in early 2025, demonstrating the viability of Kanaprima’s cultivation and post-harvest processes under controlled conditions. Full-scale operations are scheduled for later in the year and will serve to validate performance at commercial scale.
Market positioning and business model
The company’s model is built around:
Financial Performance
Revenue in 2025 - €570,000
Gross profit in 2025 - €338,891
Net profit in 2025 - €153,284
Revenue in 2026 - €1,140,000
Gross profit in 2026 - €723,577
Net profit in 2026 - €496,855
Revenue in 2027 - €2,040,000
Gross profit in 2027 - €1,418,971
Net profit in 2027 - €1,083,393
Kanaprima EOOD enters its first full-scale production cycle in 2025, with all financial figures currently based on projections. The company expects significant revenue growth driven by expanded greenhouse capacity in 2025 and market penetration in the premium segment starting in 2026. Gross profit is projected to improve due to operational efficiency and differentiated pricing strategies in 2027, when approximately one-third of seed volume is expected to be sold at a higher price tier.
Net profitability is forecasted to rise sharply, reflecting stable fixed costs, increased output, and stronger pricing. There are no historical results, as commercial operations are set to begin in 2025.
Cost structure and profitability drivers
Kanaprima’s production model is based on greenhouse agriculture with 2–3 harvests per year. While variable costs scale with volume, fixed costs such as land lease and infrastructure are expected to remain stable after the 2025–2026 investment phase. In 2027, the company introduces a two-tier pricing model: the standard price remains at €0.13 per seed, while premium-grade seeds targeted at high-end European processors are priced at €0.25.
By 2027, unit economics are expected to improve through both efficiency gains and higher-margin product segmentation, without proportional increases in core operating expenses.
Observations and financial trajectory
Rating BBB (the fourth tier) reflects a licensed, asset-backed start-up with collateral above the loan amount, balanced against the fact that it has no trading history yet: every financial figure is a projection.
Keep in mind:
* All figures are management projections; commercial operations begin in 2025

Kanaprima plans a two-phase expansion over 2025–2027: first doubling capacity, then selling part of its output to premium buyers in Switzerland, Germany and similar markets. All figures are management projections.
The European certified hemp seed market is projected at €2.2B by 2025, growing 15–20% a year, with Germany, Switzerland and the Netherlands the main consumer markets. Switzerland, valued at over €450M and growing 10%+ a year, is the key destination for premium lab-tested seeds, while Bulgaria and Romania are emerging as low-cost production bases.
The €450K loan is secured by fixed assets worth an estimated €560K — 124% of the loan principal.
So the new equipment financed by the loan becomes part of the collateral, on top of the assets the company already owns.
