Trenton — New Jersey CannaBusiness Association (NJCBA) President Edmund DeVeaux issued the following statement today on the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission officially beginning to accept license applications for adult-use cannabis cultivation, manufacturing and testing laboratories:
“New Jersey should be extremely proud of the application portals opening today for cultivation, manufacturing, and laboratory testing. Looking beyond the challenges over the years to put expanded medical and adult-use cannabis markets in place legislatively and by regulation, we surpassed the tri-state commercial region in matters of regulating social justice and industry. The NJCBA continues to stand ready to be a resource for current license holders, prospective licensees, and municipalities hosting cannabis businesses, both for the application round starting today and all future application rounds.”
