Cannabis industry advocates are applauding its progress in New Jersey. For some businesses, the process of entering the market is taking longer than expected. But Ed DeVeaux, the president of the New Jersey CannaBusiness Association, said he believes that by not rushing, New Jersey will avoid negative outcomes seen in other parts of the country.
While challenges remain, like high prices for products, Jeff Brown, the executive director of the Cannabis Regulatory Commission, said the agency is committed to making sure there’s equitable opportunity across the industry. And as the industry continues to grow, all the necessary steps to ensure it reaches its full potential are being taken, according to the CRC.
