Background
The medical marijuana business is an emerging multi-billion dollar industry — Colorado experienced more than $700 million in sales alone last year. Starting a business begins with an application package to the state where the facility — dispensary or grow facility — will be located. The process to get licensed is competitive, most state regulatory agencies put a significant emphasis on the proposed security plan, and most applicants fail because their security is inadequate. If the security plan is not holistic, the odds of getting a license are low.
