PREFERRED PARTNERSHIPS
THE OPPORTUNITY
Many of the best opportunities for success in the cannabis industry are in emerging markets. Getting established early in a newly regulated state could enable you to become a dominant player in your region. If you attempt to enter a market later in the licensing process, the prospects for your business may diminish significantly.
At AmeriCann, we can help you identify the most promising markets and help you navigate and obtain a valuable license. Additionally, we can provide a comprehensive set of services and the capital to help you succeed once you obtain a license.
WHAT IS THE PREFERRED PARTNER PROGRAM?
AmeriCann, Inc. develops, owns and supports advanced medical cannabis facilities in multiple states. In an effort to advance the quality of medical cannabis and to promote greater access for patients, AmeriCann has initiated the AmeriCann Preferred Partner Program. We support local businesses that seek to serve cannabis patients in their communities.
AmeriCann does not cultivate, process, distribute or sell cannabis. Rather, we assist local partners to obtain licenses, to cultivate medicine and to provide important medicine to patients. The company provides an essential set of resources including advanced cultivation facilities, access to a team of experts and, in certain cases, working capital for our partners’ businesses. If you would like to learn more about the AmeriCann Preferred Partner Program or apply for the program, please download the Fact Sheet and complete the Preferred Partner Program Questionnaire.
