Dispensary Insurance Business Booming!

Own a dispensary and need insurance to cover your losses in case of theft, spoilage or injury? There are insurance policies available from most major insurance carriers.

This is a "growing" business for insurance companies since the number of dispensaries in the US is growing rapidly.

It seems the only thing they don't cover is legal expenses if you get busted. See the article below to find out exactly what these policies cover.

I don't think the Administration in the white house realizes the number of jobs the hemp plant could create!

Thanks once again skip!

True Amstel. Lots of growers don't see the upside FOR THEM of legalization. It's a whole new game starting, with different rules and different payoffs. You just need to be in the right racket to profit from it. As with insurance, there is no end to the new ways that marijuana will spark the economy.

As I said b4, get into the seed breeder biz and you'll have no probs. Demand will continue to grow.

Sounds like those insurance companies are involved in money laundering and risk asset forfeiture by the DEA. Oh no wait, the DEA only goes after those that can't fight back.

I don't think any current seed breeder in the world can compete with a professional laboratory equipped with techniques and PhDs to do Genetic modifications to the seed. But, perhaps that's just me.

There will always be a connoisseur market for MJ. But if growers on ICM think that a legal MJ market will favor their interests as commercial producers - or even favor the Humboldt Counties of the world - you're kidding yourself.

This is what a legal MJ commercial grower looks like. And there is not a Richard Lee anywhere in sight, either:



Now THAT is a Grow Op

I disagree Fatigues. As far as I can determine, once it's legal, there will be a lot more grows like that. Eddy Lepps grow was nearly that size. And there wasn't even a corporation behind it, just a collective of individuals. I've seen pix of Swiss grows bigger than that, and that was when it was ILLEGAL. Imagine when it's legal. Any biz with enough dough can do a setup like that.

I think you underestimate the resources and potential of ppl coming together and organizing huge grows like this. It's all about organizing your community.

Again, Fatigues you and others here are still thinking in obsolete terms. Legalization changes everything.

Which of you GROWERS right here on ICMAG will one day operate a LEGAL grow like the one above?

Want to be able to do a HUGE GROW like that above? Then LEGALIZE IT!

I would love to have an op like that. That's going to be the future of commercial growing. Industrial agriculture production like wine is around the world. I think the industry surrounding MJ might dwarf wine though. That's not even getting into hemp.

I don't think large scale commercial grows will help anyone, other than investors, and corporations. Homogenized product, cut throat business deals, it will only be a matter of time before big name corporations take over the industry. There will be room for small Micro Brewery types, but on the whole $ talks and bullshit walks.

There will be a whole scale of product quality IMO. Crap for cheap, high quality indoor for the tops. Micro Breweries and small independent wine makers put out a quality product and make a very nice living doing so. I think we are a little afraid of change sometimes.
