Trulieve Loses Out On West Virginia Growers Permit Application

It appears that a false start for Trulieve Cannabis (CSE: TRUL) was fired in West Virginia earlier this year. In August, it was reported that a grow facility application had been approved for the company within the state. However, it appears that the state has skipped over Trulieve in granting a growers permit.

On Friday, the State of West Virginia revealed the first ten grower permits that were approved to begin cultivation of cannabis products. Unfortunately for Trulieve and the prior reports, the company was not one of the winners selected to receive a permit, despite the company having already spent funds to purchase property in the state for the purpose of cultivation.

Winners of the growers permit now have six months to begin cultivation of medical cannabis in the state, or risk losing the coveted permit. Further, as per the code instated by the Department of Health and Human Resources, permits that have been issued are not allowed to be sold, removing the potential for the Florida-based cannabis operator to simply buy a permit from one of the application winners.

While Trulieve was left out of the granted permits, several well known names were fortunate enough to receive permits. The full list of growers permits granted is as follows.
