Ayr Wellness Adds to Florida Footprint, Opens New Dispensary in West Pensacola
MIAMI, September 20, 2021– Ayr Wellness Inc. (CSE: AYR.A, OTC: AYRWF) (“Ayr” or the “Company”), a leading vertically integrated cannabis multi-state operator (“MSO”), today announced the opening of Liberty Health Sciences West Pensacola, the Company’s 41st operating dispensary in Florida.
The West Pensacola dispensary is located at 2146 W. 9 Mile Rd, Pensacola, Florida. The 1,330 sq. ft. retail store expands the Company’s presence in the important Pensacola market, the westernmost city in the Florida Panhandle and one of the largest metropolitan areas in the Gulf Coast region with a population of over 500,000.
The new location features LHS’s expanded selection of flower strains, in addition to the Company’s recently launched Origyn concentrates, Big Pete’s Cookies and Secret Orchard vape cartridges.
Jonathan Sandelman, CEO of Ayr, said, “We continue to increase our retail footprint in Florida, now 41 stores, enabled by the improvements that we have made to our Gainesville cultivation facility. We continue to improve the overall consumer experience to reach Ayr’s high standards and are very proud of the progress that our team has made in the short time that we’ve owned the business.”
The Florida medical marijuana market continues to show robust growth, with the Florida Office of Medical Marijuana Use reporting over 612,000 registered patients as of September 17, 2021, up ~47% year-over-year.
