Difference between a storefront and a dispensary

A cannabis storefront is designated for adult consumers whereas a dispensary is oriented to achieve medical benefits for a particular condition.

A storefront is limited to sell no more than one ounce (28.5 grams) of cannabis flower or up to 800 milligrams of THC for edibles and eight grams of concentrates to adult consumers. A dispensary can sell more and stronger cannabis products according to the needs of the patient.

In a storefront, adults with a government-issued ID may purchase cannabis products without a medical marijuana card. In a dispensary, patients need a medical marijuana card to purchase cannabis products, and there is a budtender who gives guidelines on how the patient should take medical marijuana products.

In a dispensary, the cannabis product is tailored to meet the requirements of the patients so that the condition can be treated whereas, in a storefront, the cannabis products are not specified to meet the medical needs of the consumer.

Adult-use, or recreational, cannabis is consumed by adults for enjoyment. In contrast, medical marijuana is consumed by patients to treat chronic conditions or symptoms.
