COACHELLA, CA. - The city of Coachella held a ceremony breaking ground on the first commercial cannabis facility on Feb. 9. With all its available spaces being rented out, Del-Gro will be open for business on the property formerly Ajax Auto Wrecking.
"Opening the first cultivation operation in Coachella is an incredible opportunity for us and our partner cultivators", said Ben Levine, founder and CEO of Del-Gro. "We forecast that our operation will ultimately bring in over $100 million in annual revenue for us and the independent growers we work with.
