"We'll continue to increase our footprint in the right markets, such as Florida, where we continue to see opportunities to drive material value. We're bringing our bestselling branded products to our stores and expanding access to cannabis to more patients-it's a win-win scenario," said Charlie Bachtell, CEO and Co-founder of Cresco Labs. "Jacksonville has significant population density, and our newest dispensary is in the heart of Riverside, where there is tremendous development taking place. We look forward to serving more patients in the region through our two stores."
