Trulieve Celebrates Opening Of Tarpon Springs Dispensary

TARPON SPRINGS, FL — Trulieve Cannabis Corp. announced the opening of the company’s 53rd dispensary in the state.

Situated next to Lake Tarpon at 40545 U.S. 19, the dispensary supports Trulieve’s goal of expanding and ensuring direct, reliable patient access to medical cannabis. It joins the company’s nearby dispensaries in New Port Richey, Clearwater and Tampa.

“Today’s grand opening of Tarpon Springs is exciting for us as we celebrate four successful years this weekend of bringing natural, reliable relief to patients across the state of Florida. We’re very proud of the business we’ve built, of the amazing innovation we’ve seen in this industry, and of the growth we’ve been able to achieve organically over the past four years,” said Trulieve CEO Kim Rivers. “Trulieve has built a foundation of compassionate core values, with strong diversity and inclusion initiatives and a mission to bring the highest quality cannabis products possible to the Trulievers that rely on us, and we look forward to continuing that for years to come.”

To commemorate the opening of the new dispensary, all patients will be eligible for a 25 percent in-store discount at the Tarpon Springs location on Friday. In line with policies that have been adopted statewide, all visitors will be required to wear masks inside the dispensary. At this time, only patients and their state-approved caregivers will be allowed inside the waiting room and dispensary.

To assist patients with ordering, Trulieve has made its entire catalog of products available for online ordering, with in-store pickup, curbside pickup (at select locations) or statewide home delivery options available.

Furthermore, to assist with CDC recommendations, measures have been taken to ensure the health and well-being of employees and patients, including modifying the store layout, installation of plexiglass partitions and HEPA air filtration scrubbers in the dispensaries, increasing access to masks and sanitizer throughout the store for staff and visitors, using visual aids to direct traffic throughout the store and increasing the frequency of deep cleanings for all dispensaries.

In stores and online, patients will find Florida's largest selection of THC and CBD products, available in a variety of delivery methods, including smokable cannabis, concentrates, tinctures, topical creams and vaporizers.

The Office of Medical Marijuana Use recently announced the registry was quickly approaching 375,000 registered medical marijuana patients with an active ID card, with Trulieve consistently selling approximately half of the state's overall volume, according to the Florida Department of Health. There are nearly 2,500 registered ordering physicians in the state of Florida as well.

Trulieve is the first and largest fully licensed medical cannabis company in the state of Florida. The company cultivates and produces all of its products in-house and distributes those products to Trulieve-branded stores.
