First we get the pictures of happy customers queuing down the street on days 1-3 of legalization.
Good to see Michigan has reached stage 2 already and is running out of supply.
Next steps include licensing disasters, seed to sale software following over, local govt corruption.. the list of excitements ahead for Michigan is just endless !
Merry Jane reports on the running out of stock stage…
After one week of legal sales, dispensaries in the Wolverine State are already setting purchase limits and closing early, thanks to overwhelming demand.
Just one week after Michigan kicked off recreational cannabis sales, licensed dispensaries are already closing early and limiting purchases, thanks to a combination of overwhelming demand and short supply.
“Sunday it was around 6 o’clock we sold out of flower. Monday it was around 5. Tuesday it was like 3,” Maggie Smith, manager at Greenstone Provisions dispensary in Ann Arbor, told MLive. “People are coming from Wisconsin, Indiana, Ohio, all over Michigan, everywhere.”
Ann Arbor was the first city in the state to open recreational pot shops after adult-use sales began on December 1st. On the first day alone, customers lined up in the rain for hours, eventually spending approximately $221,000 on flower, edibles, and extracts. In the days that followed, those lines continued to grow, leaving dispensaries like Greenstone with no choice but to shut down early thanks to a lack of product.
