Washington, D.C.

D.C.’s medical cannabis market has significantly expanded, with over 50 new licensed medical cannabis retailers. K&M provides the following services to cannabis industry stakeholders and licensees in D.C.

The transition for applicants across all license categories – particularly unlicensed establishments – to the highly regulated medical cannabis market, can seem daunting. The application and licensing processes are not straightforward and even small errors can result in an application being denied or delayed in its review.  Once licensed, the mistakes or omissions in regulatory reporting requirements can result in civil fines or penalties.

If you have applied for a manufacturer, cultivator, retailer, internet retailer or courier license and/or if you have a conditional manufacturer or cultivator license and you need assistance navigating the District’s application and/or licensing process, contact K&M to find out how we can help.
