1. How to Open a Medical Marijuana Dispensary – By The MedMen
There are many strict guidelines that must be strictly followed when planning to
open a medical marijuana dispensary. Here is a brief overview of the entire process:
 Since, many states do not allow cultivating and distributing marijuana for
profit, you must firstly file articles of incorporation under the Food and
Agricultural code.
 Only after getting permits from the state and in some cases even a business
license and zoning permit, you should proceed further.
 Formulate an application written by patients and their primary caretakers
that must include a detailed information of the physician such as his name,
contact details, qualifications etc.
 In the application, make sure the information provided is verified. This
process also needs the members to sign an agreement saying that the
marijuana will be used only for medicinal purposes.
 The marijuana plant used in the dispensary should be purchased and sold
to or from the members who signed the above mentioned agreement.
 Since the business of medicinal marijuana is non profitable, therefore only a
limited amount is charged from the members.
 The members should also keep a track of the amount of marijuana that is
grown, possessed or transported from their dispensary.
