The name NuEra highlights the fact that legalization in Illinois didn't just change the laws on the books - it unleashed a whole new era of cannabis. An era in which cannabis is safer, higher quality and available in a greater variety than ever before. Canna-consumers have more methods of consumption, more strains, more precise dosage labeling, and better information about the effects of each of our products than any generation before them.

  • NuMed has been a pioneer in the Illinois cannabis market, one of the first licensed operators in the medical pilot program and has been serving the Illinois medical cannabis community since 2016 with locations in Chicago, East Peoria, and Urbana.
  • NuEra recently took over ownership of the Hillcrest Cultivation Center in Rochelle, Ill., and is the newest vertically integrated cannabis company in Illinois.
  • The change from Med to Era highlights its expansion to serving both medical patients and the newer “recreational” cannabis consumers

“We will always remain committed to our medical patients and medicinal values, which is why we are one of Illinois' best providers of cannabis products for all people of legal age,” said Robert Fitzsimmons, CEO.
