Reply to comment by orb_king in Dispensaries in Jersey City > Whole Foods by Treethan__

The first wave of new NJ dispensaries will all be carrying the same “over priced” products as the current dispensaries ….. until LOCAL CULTIVATORS & MANUFACTURERS get licensed.

Dispensaries are at the bottom of the supply chain, prices don’t get set there

Costs don’t get set there, but prices do.

They kinda don’t tho 🫣😬

Cultivator sells to processor for $5 Processor sells to retailer for $10 Retail sells to customer for $20 -$25

Easy numbers for the sake of showing how it generally works for us in the supply chain

All product on the market is made by “local cultivators and manufacturers”. There just isn’t enough of them yet.

“Local” lol

Ascend wellness - Massachusetts Curaleaf - Massachusetts Trulieve - Florida Zen leaf - Nevada Columbia care - New York

….. I can keep going 🙃 but I think you’ll get the point.

Medical side all we have is Hillview Med, outside of that … Jersey has no licensed LOCAL cultivators or manufacturers yet

They all have NJ cultivation locations that employee NJ residents. Not sure what your definition of “local” is.

It’s that way now because each state has to operate on its own. The second federal legalization comes, those companies are packing up and certainly not taking their NJ employees with them. Long term & over all = we need NJ born & bred cannabis businesses.

Congrats on your manufacturing license ❤️ the dispos suck!!!!!!!!

The quality and the price suck. It’s a nice visual experience when entering some have hood staff but going to the dispo is a last minute resort.
