Medical Cannabis Business Licenses

Every cannabis business in Long Beach that engages in medical cannabis activities, which includes the selling, cultivating, manufacturing, distributing, transporting, or testing of medicinal cannabis should apply for a medical cannabis business license. Medical cannabis is strictly used by patients and primary caregivers over 18 years of age that have a valid doctor's recommendation.

Holding a medical cannabis business license does not allow a business to engage in the adult-use cannabis market, which includes the selling, cultivating, manufacturing, distributing, transporting, or testing of adult-use cannabis. Every cannabis business that engages in both medicinal and adult-use cannabis activities must obtain both a medical and adult-use cannabis business license.
