MariMed Inc. has commenced cannabis product manufacturing in Missouri, with products expected to be available across the state in time for the holidays.

“Expanding our branded products into Missouri has been a key goal for us,” said Ryan Crandall, chief revenue officer. “Missouri’s fast-growing market is eager for high-quality products, and we expect to start sales and distribution by the end of November.”

MariMed plans a statewide wholesale push, distributing its edibles and vapes, including Betty’s Eddies fruit chews, Bubby’s Baked fresh baked confections, Vibations hydrating drink mixes, and InHouse flower, vapes, and gummies.

This expansion brings MariMed’s operations to six states, with facilities also in Delaware, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts and Ohio. MariMed will manage the Missouri facility under a managed services agreement (MSA) until license transfer approval.
