New York City authorities may soon allow licensed marijuana sellers to deliver their products to people’s homes.
With the launch of storefront operations delayed in the Big Apple, authorities said marijuana home delivery might help jumpstart adult-use cannabis product sales.
A presentation at the New York Office of Cannabis Management last month mentioned a plan to kick off marijuana home delivery, media outlet The City reported.
Aaron Ghitelman, a spokesperson for the office, later confirmed the news to the outlet.
Ghitelman added that new details about the “non-store front delivery operations” may be rolled out in December. The announcement will “enable these small business owners to generate capital and scale their operations,” the New York Office of Cannabis Management said in a tweet.
Authorities also released regulations that sellers will have to follow, while delivering cannabis products through the city. These include strict age verification and limiting means of delivery to road transport, according to the released draft.
As progress on the storefront operations remained slow, New York authorities approved licenses of 36 vendors wishing to sell recreational marijuana. Out of these, eight were not-for-profit organizations, and the rest were individual entrepreneurs.
