“Virginia’s demand for high quality cannabis continues to grow, and we’re here to answer the call with our new Virginia Beach dispensary to serve the most populous city in the state,” said Jesse Channon, Chief Growth Officer of Columbia Care. “We’re thankful to the Board of Pharmacy and local officials for their continued support of our presence in the state and for allowing us to bring this critical medicine to patients in need. As conversations around adult use in Virginia progress, we are eager and excited to make cannabis more accessible, and to expand our transformation to Cannabist across the country.”

The new dispensary marks Columbia Care’s fourth location in Virginia, following its recently announced gLeaf opening in Glen Allen, a Richmond suburb.
