The company holds city and state approvals for more than 20 „Class C” cultivation licenses, three processing licenses and 13 provisioning center licenses.
„I cannot express how excited I am to be joining the Gage team and family,” Linton said in a press release.
„Gage’s approach to the cultivation, processing and provisioning of quality cannabis products and brands has established them as a leader in the state of Michigan. I look forward to leveraging my relationship networks and experiences to play a significant role with Gage as they continue to accelerate their expansion throughout the state.”
