Curaleaf opens third Connecticut cannabis retail dispensary

Curaleaf Holdings Inc. (OTCQX: CURLF) has opened its third Connecticut cannabis retail dispensary at 79 Gold Star Highway in Groton.

The New York City-headquartered company began adult use cannabis sales in Connecticut last January with its Stamford store at 814 East Main St., and it later opened a store in Hartford. The company has a medical marijuana dispensary in Manchester, but that location does not sell recreational-use cannabis products.

“Our goal is to continue to expand our adult use sales in the state, and we are working to get the necessary approvals to begin sales at a fourth Connecticut location,” said Matt Darin, CEO of Curaleaf. “We are committed to being an industry leader where medical patients and consumers can both be educated about cannabis consumption and find an assortment of high-quality and innovative products for their lifestyle needs.”
