CHICAGO and HERMITAGE, Pa., Sept. 13, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Green Thumb Industries Inc. (GTI) (CSE: GTII) (OTCQX: GTBIF), a leading national cannabis consumer packaged goods company and owner of Rise™ and Essence retail stores, today announced it will open Rise Hermitage, the  seventh Rise™ retail location in Pennsylvania, on September 19.

Rise Hermitage will host an open house for the community on September 16 from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. The open house will be held before cannabis products are on site so all are welcome to attend and meet the Rise™ team, including the General Manager and Pennsylvania Market President.

“We’re honored to open the seventh Rise™ store in Pennsylvania and to be the first to provide cannabis to people throughout Mercer County,” said GTI Founder and Chief Executive Officer Ben Kovler. “With 32 stores now open across the country, we look forward to expanding our footprint in Pennsylvania while being an active member of the Hermitage community.”

Rise™ currently has locations in Erie, Steelton, Carlisle, York, Latrobe and Mechanicsburg. GTI entered the Pennsylvania market in 2017 and has a manufacturing facility in Danville where the company produces its branded products including Rythm.

“Rise and GTI are experienced cannabis operators and we’re thrilled a local dispensary will be available for patients with qualifying conditions,” said President of the Hermitage Board of Commissioners Bill Moder. “With the company’s emphasis on strict compliance and its commitment to the community, we’re excited to welcome them into the area where they can reach even more patients through their high-quality branded products.”

As of August 2019, over 180,000 patients have been registered for the state’s medical marijuana program, with 3,000 people receiving certification after anxiety disorders were added to the qualifying conditions list. The state currently has a robust list of 23 qualifying conditions, including opioid use disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder and severe chronic pain. More information about the Pennsylvania medical marijuana program can be found at www.health.pa.gov.
