TerrAscend Corp, a cannabis Multi-State Operator (MSO), announced Apothecarium Lodi, their 3^rd New Jersey dispensary, and the 26th overall opened.

The New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission (NJCRC) announced it earlier this week.

The dispensary began medical and adult-use sales this week. The opening of the store has been delayed for many months. TerrAscend Corp. offered no reason why in their press release.

“We expect the Apothecarium Lodi to be a strong contributor to our growth,” said Illinois-based TerrAscend Corp. Executive Chairman Jason Wild. “We are excited to bring The Apothecarium’s elevated retail experiences, including the exclusive Cookies Corner shop-in-shop and the widest product assortment in the state, while continuing to build meaningful relationships with the local community.”

The 5,000-square-foot dispensary, located at 200 Route 17 South, features a spacious showroom and interactive bud bar where shoppers can see and smell the product before purchase. Medical cannabis patients and consumers can order online or through the Apothecarium app to experience the dispensary drive-thru.

The Apothecarium Lodi is located in one of the most populous regions of North Jersey. It is 14 miles outside Manhattan in Bergen County and next to the real Bada Bing Strip Club featured on The Sopranos. In real life, it is known as Satin Dolls
