How Can We Be Ultra Compliant?

Show me your compliance!

Discussing compliance isn’t always sexy. However, it is a foundational component to operating a successful business in any industry- especially in the cannabis industry.

The risks of not getting it right are high. Violations may result in fines, license suspension or revocation. In addition, this may lead to; loss of safe access for patients, loss of product, losing jobs, loss of investment, and giving our opponents reason to reinstate prohibition.

We must get this right. This week, we’re inviting you to take a look at your business and find three areas you could strengthen in the world of compliance.
