Harvest Enterprises Inc., a vertically integrated cannabis company with one of the largest footprints in the United States and growing at a robust pace, today announced that its North Dakota affiliate has been awarded a retail license for the Bismarck-Mandan region of North Dakota, the only license awarded by state regulators for the capitol region. Harvest was chosen because it received the highest score on its application based on its responses to the set of criteria developed by the North Dakota Department of Health’s Medical Marijuana Program.
The North Dakota state legislature approved regulations to govern its new medical cannabis program in March 2018, and sales are expected to begin by the end of the year. With this latest win Harvest and its affiliates now have more than 40 licenses in states across the U.S.
Founded in 2011, Harvest now has the largest footprint in its home state of Arizona – the third largest medical cannabis market in the U.S. and one of the oldest regulated cannabis markets in the world. With a truly comprehensive vertically integrated model, Harvest comprises industry-leading cultivation, manufacturing, retail facilities, construction, real estate, technological capabilities backed by an award-winning team of experts with a proven track record in writing and winning state-based cannabis licensing applications.
“We are extremely pleased to be awarded the only retail license in the Bismarck-Mandan region and look forward to opening the first dispensary in North Dakota’s capital city,” said Steve White, founder and CEO of Harvest. “It’s an honor for us to have been selected and we are excited to offer the people of Bismarck the highest quality products and top-level service that are the hallmark of Harvest facilities, wherever they are located.”
A national leader in the cannabis industry, Harvest holds itself to the most stringent health, safety and quality standards in the industry when it comes to the growth, production and sale of cannabis medicines, and products for consumers. Harvest’s offerings include a full line of cannabis products. Since Harvest was founded in 2011, the company has donated more than $500,000 to veterans, seniors, children, patients-in-need and other charitable recipients.
