When you lay all the cards on the table, California has had a pretty crazy year when it comes to the marijuana debate. Although the Golden State fully legalized the little green plant, new testing standards and seed-to-sale tracking (among other new legal requirements) have put a damper on multiple businesses. (In fact, some companies have been forced to destroy products were not “up-to-date” with current laws.) Add a lengthy transition period to the mix, and you have one smoldering pile of confusion and discord running from San Francisco all the way down to San Diego. Sure, out state has seen a lot this past year, but hope is still lying on the horizon for one legitimate company. Recently, OM Edibles received the first state annual license in California, one of the rarest achievements at this point. Let’s take a closer look and find out more.
The Ultimate Achievement in Licensing
Ultimately, dispensaries in the State of California are hoping to achieve the ultimate reward for their business: the state annual license. However, this process is much easier on paper than in reality. In fact, the process of applying for an annual license is so lengthy that several businesses have simply opted to stick with a temporary license. Also, keep in mind that regions of California that do not allow the cultivation or sale of cannabis will not allow local businesses to achieve a state license. Overall, this is a pretty test situation.
Rise of the Cannabis Amazons
Ironically, Om Edibles has one benefit that could have served as leverage: they are an all-women company specializing in pot-infused foods. For Maya Elizabeth (the founder of Om), cannabis is a superfood and nothing more, with each part of the plant (leaves, seeds, roots, stems, and more) having a unique set of benefits for the human body. Likewise, each of Om Edibles’ edibles is full-grade and high-quality and meets all established state regulation. Ultimately, Emily Milo (Elizabeth’s partner and co-founder) help the company achieve this coveted status in the State of California.
