The final four production licenses for medical marijuana in Georgia have been awarded by the Georgia Access to Medical Cannabis Commission. The approval increases the number of medical marijuana companies in the state to six, each of which is allowed to operate five dispensaries. Currently, nine dispensaries are in operation, now open in Chamblee, Evans, Macon, Marietta, Newman, Pooler and Stockbridge.
The licenses awarded Wednesday went to Fine Fettle, TheraTrue Georgia, Natures Georgia and Treevana Remedy. Each can operate greenhouses with 50,000 square feet of growing room. Besides dispensaries, dozens of independent pharmacies are beginning to sell low THC oil from the state’s licensed production companies.
