Growing Cannabis Businesses

Getting Your Doors Open

In the initial stage, the primary objective for cannabis businesses is to obtain their doors open and start operations. However, this phase comes with various challenges.

Compliance with zoning restrictions and local regulations can be demanding and time consuming. Additionally, securing sufficient funding and investment to cover startup costs and initial expenses poses another significant challenge. It is crucial to establish a solid business plan, build relationships with suppliers, and develop a marketing strategy to attract customers in this competitive market.
