'If this decision is not reversed we are going to certainly lay off people,' sad Curaleaf's CEO.
The Curaleaf marijuana dispensary in Edgewater Park, Burlington County is one of the few New Jersey locations that's able to sell adult recreational use marijuana."That's what I'm using it for, pain in my knee. I could get a medical card, but I don't want to go about that," Steven McKoy from Edgewater Township.But soon, Curaleaf's customers might have to turn elsewhere.
The New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission decided on Thursday that as of April 20, the Edgewater location and Curaleaf's Bellmawr location will lose their permits to sell recreational products.Curaleaf responded on Twitter to the decision, saying it was "an outrageous act of political retaliation.""We're in good standing with the CRC and the board's own staff recommended to the board to renew our license," said Darin.
He says if this ruling doesn't change, they'll be forced into making layoffs. The company currently has 500 New Jersey employees. "If this decision is not reversed we are going to certainly lay off people. We don't have exact totals yet today, but that will certainly be the case," said Darin."I don't like to drink a lot or anything like that. So, a little bit is enough to relax me a little bit," said one customer.However, that's about a 20-minute ride north away from the Edgewater location.Copyright © 2023 WPVI-TV. All Rights Reserved.
