US (MA): Supply chain disruptions hit cannabis industry

It seems that there are but few industries that are not affected by supply chain disruptions; the cannabis industry, too, is hit by shortages in materials due to these disruptions.

Both Westport attorney Brian Corey and attorney and former Fall River mayor Will Flanagan say delayed deliveries of supplies and materials needed to build and construct retail and cultivation facilities have been a problem in recent months.
