Armond June is the co-founder and CEO of Revival: Pharm. Lab. Market. He said he’s been patiently waiting for a cannabis license.
“Excited to get underway and things are finally getting moving,” June said.
He and his team plan to transform a building on Chicago Street in downtown Buffalo into a craft cannabis boutique.
WKBW “We’re hoping to house cultivation operations manufacturing, as well as a retail dispensary and small lounge for consumers,” June said.
He said right now his team is waiting for their application to be reviewed.
WKBW “I think the whole process has been difficult, probably a little bit more difficult than it needed to be,” he said.
This long process has urged members from a variety of cannabis industry groups to launch the ‘Cannabis Conference.’ The group is coming together to work with officials to find solutions to the ongoing challenges facing the cannabis market. They’re laying out 12 priorities to fix what they say is a “delayed” and “flawed” rollout of the retail cannabis market.
