01Beginnings
This one is run by Global Health & Pharma, usually shortened to GHP. The organiser describes itself as a group that recognises leaders in human, animal and environmental health1.
The awards are annual1. By the 2020 round, the cannabis-focused category was in its second year1. The sources do not say when the wider GHP awards began, or where any ceremony was held.
02Story
The 2020 round shows up under two names on the same page: the Commercial Cannabis Awards 2020 and the Medical Marijuana Awards 20201. That is worth knowing if you are searching for it.
The clearest story in the sources is one winner. Compassionate Certification Centers, a company with a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania dateline, announced it had taken the "Best Cannabis Certification Specialists - USA" recognition1. The press release is dated 22 January 20211.
The same company also reported wins at the 2019 GHP Medical Marijuana Awards, including a title for medical marijuana registration pioneers in Pennsylvania1. Its CEO and co-founder is named as Melonie Kotchey1. The sources do not say who else won, or how many categories there were.
03Culture
The main thing the sources tell us about how this cup works is that it is not a popularity contest. Winners were not chosen by public vote1.
Instead, GHP researchers put together case files, and a judging panel went through them1. The panel looked at accomplishments, organisational growth, company values and public reputation1. The sources do not say who sat on the panel.
04Now
The latest thing in the sources is that January 2021 press release, so the sources do not say what the awards look like today1.
The release also mentions that the winning company announced a grand re-opening of its new office in Washington, PA, on 1 February1. That is news about the company, not the awards, and the sources do not give the year.
05Future
The sources do not say anything about future rounds, new categories or changes to the judging. All we can say is that the awards were described as annual1.
