Get Ahead of the Curve with New Jersey Cannabis Consulting

Cannabis business opportunities in New Jersey are abundant and ready for you to seize. Currently, the state is accepting applications and if you act now, you can secure a license for cannabis manufacturing, cultivation, retail, or a testing laboratory.

More than 900 applications were received by May 2022. But only about 100 licenses were approved. Although the Cannabis Regulatory Commission (CRC) continues to approve licenses and accept applications already submitted, there’s still a limited number of slots available for securing a cannabis license in a given year.

Act now to secure your New Jersey cannabis business license with expert guidance from Tenax Strategies.

Unlock the Many Lucrative Opportunities of the New Jersey Cannabis Industry

NJ accepts cannabis applications in three categories: 

As of March 15, 2022, the Cannabis Review Commission is accepting applications for Class 5 Retail licenses, with criteria affecting the prioritization of applications, including people with cannabis convictions, women, disabled veterans, minorities, designated target communities, impact zone businesses, social equity businesses, and diversity-owned businesses.

Additionally, the Cannabis Regulatory Commission has begun awarding conditional licenses for adult-use cultivation and manufacturing licenses.

For those looking to join the New Jersey cannabis industry, now is the time to take advantage of the opportunity. Contact us today and let’s turn your cannabis business vision into a profitable, compliant reality.

Adult-use Cannabis in New Jersey

In November 2020, New Jersey voters approved cannabis for adult use, quickly leading to the introduction of the Cannabis Regulatory, Enforcement Assistance, and Marketplace Modernization (CREAMM) Act for the monitoring and regulation of cannabis sales.

Establishing the Cannabis Regulatory Commission, the Act has enabled adults 21 and over to partake in recreational cannabis sales since April 2021. With no set limit on the number of cannabis businesses and the cap for Class I Cultivators set at 37, license applications remain open until February 23, 2023.

Permitted products include concentrated oils, dried flower, tinctures, lozenges, resin, vape formulas, and soft chews, with brownies, cookies, and other perishable edibles still illegal for recreational cannabis use.

New Jersey Medical Marijuana

New Jersey legalized medical marijuana in 2010 with the passage of The Compassionate Use Medical Marijuana Act, allowing registered patients to access monitored, regulated facilities for their medical cannabis.

Under the Compassionate Use Medical Marijuana Act, 24 licensed dispensaries are owned by vertically integrated companies, with children and adults both qualifying for medical marijuana. However, slow growth has been seen in this area due to the limited list of conditions allowed, as well as a surge in pricing.
