CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PRESS RELEASE--Cresco Labs, one of the largest vertically integrated multistate cannabis operators in the United States, has announced the conversion of four dispensaries to Cresco’s nationwide retail brand, Sunnyside*, in the Williamsburg neighborhood in Brooklyn, Huntington Station, New Hartford and Bardonia, New York. Cresco has also launched a home delivery service for medical cannabis patients in the New Hartford area of New York. Patients can place orders for home delivery for a variety of products including vape pens and cartridges, topical creams, oral tinctures and capsules at Sunnyside.shop. Cresco plans to roll out its medical cannabis home delivery program to the three other communities with Sunnyside* locations in the coming months.
These dispensaries in the state of New York are the first stores to be rebranded under Cresco’s national retail brand on the East Coast. Cresco holds one of the 10 vertically integrated cannabis business licenses granted in the state by the New York State Department of Health. Each license gives the operator the right to operate one cultivation facility and four dispensaries in New York.
“As we continue to build our national retail brand and consolidate the five dispensary brands we operate around the country under the Sunnyside* name, we remain focused on ensuring that we deliver against the promise of what Sunnyside* stands for—wellness, education and convenience,” said Charlie Bachtell, Cresco Labs' CEO and co-founder. “New York has a growing medical cannabis patient program of more than 114,000 people who look to dispensaries and their cannabis product forms to treat a variety of qualifying conditions and critical illnesses. With Sunnyside*, we aim to provide a best-in-class shopping experience through ongoing education, product availability and technology. The ease of home delivery provides the convenience that many living in New York will appreciate with the benefit of the quality and consistency that regulated, third-party tested, cannabis products can provide. Home delivery plays a critical role in our ecommerce strategy, and we are excited to offer this service to reach medical cannabis patients in our communities with the right products they need.”
Registered medical cannabis patients can place a home delivery order seven days a week at Sunnyside.shop with a minimum order of $80 required for delivery service. Free delivery is available for orders of $150 or more. Distributed from Cresco’s Sunnyside* dispensary in New Hartford, delivery services are available for patients in the following communities: New Hartford, Utica, Marcy, Whitesboro, Oriskany, Clinton, Sauquoit, Frankfurt and Rome.
