This certification will ensure you meet the requirements of all of the government regulatory agencies such as “Enforcement Divisions”, “Health Departments”, etc. Selling and serving cannabis involves many risks – so any failure to act responsibly on your part and proactively – could result in fines, imprisonment,  possible license suspension, increased insurance costs, or possibly losing your business operation.
