Ascend Wellness Holdings, Inc. announced the opening of its Rochelle Park, New Jersey medical-use dispensary. The opening marks AWH's second Ascend location in the state and the first dispensary to operate in Rochelle Park. Located at 174 Route-17 N, the dispensary will benefit from its position along one of the most highly- trafficked corridors in the country, seeing over 100,000 vehicles per day on average. It is the first cannabis dispensary to open in Rochelle Park, offering patients access to a wide selection of high-quality products across flower, pre-rolls, vapes, ingestibles and topicals. The dispensary will employ 65 staff and immediately begin accepting new patients. The store is designed to accommodate high throughput, providing multiple customer touchpoints and offering patients express service through its streamlined online ordering and in-store pickup. There are currently 13 medical-use dispensaries in New Jersey serving the state's more than 100,000 registered medical marijuana patients. Ascend Rochelle Park dispensary is a key addition to New Jersey that will increase supply of medical cannabis products to better meet patients' needs.
