DTII scanner growing market: Cannabis Dispensaries

With 16 states having legalized cannabis for medical use and 17 more states with pending legislation, cannabis dispensaries appear to be gaining acceptance across the country.

Most cannabis dispensaries have a security desk or metal detector as you enter the building. Be polite and cooperative with the security personnel. They are not trying to be intrusive and are there for your safety and that of the employees. Due to the high street value and substantial black market for cannabis, dispensaries are at a higher risk of robbery than most businesses. You will likely be asked to remove metal objects from your pockets to be sure you are not carrying a weapon. As with airport security, the more prepared you are for the metal detector, the quicker and easier it is for everyone. Luckily you won’t be asked to remove your belt and shoes.
