Am I crazy? Why would anyone want this in their store? Why would you associate your product with a lethal substance? Coming from a place where a lot of my peers were wiped out by the opioid epidemic. I find this to be completely offensive and irresponsible. For the retail managers. Let’s make it even harder for front end staff. As they navigate through all the conflicting tier pricing, promotions and protected group discounts. To tell customers your product is safe, but here’s something that will totally freak you out. As you all race each other to the bottom and as we’ve see these last couple weeks out of business. Who are you kidding glad handing and patting each other on the back? The reason I got into the industry is to help people with compassionate care. Without the stigma of being an addict, drug user or criminal. Blurring the line of what is safe and what isn’t. When so many people fought to create a safe and regulated industry here in Massachusetts. Which it is a priveledge for all of us. Just because someone is stuck sitting on inventory and are not willing or creative enough to figure what their target market is, doesn’t mean it makes it right for this space.

To all of my Florida Friends. Please take 5 mins of your day to send the below to your legislators. Once again, Hemp products that we all use for our health and wellness needs, are being attacked by the Recreational and Medical Cannabis Industry. Hemp is Federally Legal and Legal in the State of Florida, but the Rec and Med market believe it's unfair for us to provide affordable, quality hemp products to consumers like you in traditional retail, where you are used to buying your everyday goods. There is a much better way of doing this #marijuanaindustry, please stop spending millions of dollars lobbying against hemp, and join in on helping consumers live a better life and BTW, if folks like Hemp products, guess what, they will move into Rec and Med products, get it? https://lnkd.in/gp5Cr6Mq
