Lighthouse Dispensary have announced tentative plans for a grand opening in April.
Chief Executive Officer Zachary Addey purchased the property earlier this month and hired a manager for the business, Paul “Wag” Crouch II, a Bridgeport native.
“I am happy that Lawrenceville will have a cannabis dispensary,” Crouch said. “The cannabis industry is bringing a lot of revenue into the communities that have embraced the industry.”
Communities with dispensaries have benefitted from local tax revenue and they tend to bring more people into the community.
“Counties like Lawrence County that border a state like Indiana where cannabis has been decriminalized but remains an illegal substance tend to see an increased number of visitors from Indiana who want to purchase cannabis openly and with the safety of knowing the product is of marketable quality,” he said.
Crouch said the Lighthouse Dispensary Herb Social will be a new and unique experience even for customers who have frequented other dispensaries.
“Our goal is to set ourselves apart from other dispensaries by offering each customer a personal experience and education on products that are available based on the consumer’s wants and needs and ensuring we stock the best cannabis products that are currently available
