security system and so on.

• The most challenging is the licensing part so that the dispensary can provide
full service such as production and delivery.
• It requires a lot of work because medical marijuana is only legal on the state
law.
• Under federal law, marijuana is still illegal.

• To monitor closely the dispensary owner, the government should closely
observe if the business is abiding with the laws and the regulations covering
this MMJ business.

Is it Safe to Open a Dispensary?
• Considering the fact that medical marijuana is legal only under the state law and still illegal under the federal law, there is still a risk associated in opening a dispensary.
• However, the Feds won’t just barge in and raid your dispensary as long as you are following all the rules under the state laws.
• In conclusion, opening a dispensary is very satisfactory, but you have to build it at your own risk.
