Alabama’s establishment of a medical cannabis program has entered another phase, with businesses beginning to notify the state of their intention to participate in the seed-to-sale industry.
The Alabama Medical Cannabis Commission received 179 requests for applications for business licenses during the first six days after it began taking those requests on September 1.
Applicants can seek licenses as cultivators, processors, secure transporters, state testing labs, and dispensaries. Or they can seek licenses as integrated companies performing multiple functions.
Jefferson County, the state’s most populous county, had the most license application requests with 28. Madison County was next with 19, followed by Montgomery County with 14, and Mobile and Tuscaloosa County with 13 each.
