There are several things to consider when you determine you want to open a medical marijuana dispensary. First off the state you are interested in must have a medical marijuana program. Most state have a RFA or RFP application process. This process normally requires a detailed business plan, an inventory control plan, a security plan, a product testing plan, a patient education or protection plan, security plan among others. Most often you will need to consult with a marijuana dispensary dispensary license consultant in order to navigate the application process.
Most lawyers are good at the legal aspects but might not be the best at developing business plans. So it's important to create a team of proposal writers, chief editor, CPA, lawyer and an acting head director of the non-profit corporation required in all states. I have found one site that offers all the plans required and allows you to preview acceptable plans at dispensarypermits.com. There are other sites that offer inventory tracking software and some bundling vending machines but for a comprehensive plan it's best to consult a specialist.
Some areas like Southern California are slow to develop an application process for dispensaries and tend to be rather ad-hoc in the method one might use to open a dispensary or collective. Again consult with an expert in the field.
Building a team and selecting real estate for a proposed dispensary may be the hardest tasks so start early. Some states require $500,000 in escrow as proof you have the capital to enact your business plan. Most states grade your plan against the other applications so it's very important to develop the best plan possible because the opportunity is often limited as to the number of dispensaries or cultivation licenses they plan on allowing. Some useful search terms for finding more info during research may be:
Dispensary license
dispensary permit
own a dispensary
open a dispensary
own a dispensary in statename
dispensary business plan
medical marijuana business plan
etc.
