MAYS LANDING, N.J. – The Cannabist Company, a leading name in the cannabis industry, has officially opened its newest dispensary in Mays Landing, New Jersey, marking another milestone in the company’s rapid expansion throughout the Garden State. The new location, situated just outside Atlantic City, aims to serve both medical patients and adult-use consumers, offering a premium selection of cannabis products in a modern retail space.
The Mays Landing dispensary represents The Cannabist Company’s continued investment in the New Jersey market, which has seen significant growth since the state legalized recreational cannabis in 2021. The company, formerly known as Columbia Care, has been aggressively expanding its footprint in the region, capitalizing on the increasing demand for high-quality cannabis products.
“We are thrilled to bring The Cannabist experience to Mays Landing,” said David Hart, CEO of The Cannabist Company. “New Jersey continues to be one of the most exciting markets in the country, and we are committed to providing consumers and patients with top-tier cannabis options while fostering a community-focused retail experience.”
Expanding Across the Garden State
The Cannabist Company currently operates multiple dispensaries across New Jersey, including locations in Vineland and Deptford. The addition of the Mays Landing store further solidifies the company’s presence in the state, making it easier for residents and visitors to access its diverse selection of flower, edibles, concentrates, and wellness products.
New Jersey’s cannabis industry has been flourishing, with dispensary sales surpassing expectations since the launch of adult-use sales. The state’s regulatory framework has allowed multi-state operators like The Cannabist Company to establish a strong foothold, while also encouraging small businesses and independent operators to participate in the market.
“As we continue to grow in New Jersey, we are also focused on education and advocacy,” said Kelly Dawson, Vice President of Retail at The Cannabist Company. “We believe that providing a welcoming environment and knowledgeable staff is just as important as offering high-quality products. Our goal is to help guide both new and experienced consumers on their cannabis journey.”
A Destination for Locals and Tourists
Mays Landing, located about 20 miles west of Atlantic City, is a strategic location for the company’s expansion. With its proximity to the Jersey Shore, the new dispensary is expected to attract not only local customers but also tourists visiting the area.
The Cannabist Company’s expansion in New Jersey is a testament to the state’s thriving cannabis industry, and with more locations on the horizon, the company is poised to remain a dominant player in the market.
