The State of Minnesota’s Office of Cannabis Management is opening a new window for registering business in the state that sell hemp-derived cannabinoid products, from beverages to gummies. Businesses not registered to sell those products face steep fines and other penalties.
A second registration opportunity starts June 2. The previous registration period closed in April. The new window will allow businesses that sell hemp-derived cannabinoid products but that are licensed to do so to get in compliance with state law.
“Opening a registration window for new hemp retailers this summer allows hemp businesses to continue driving revenue and economic opportunities to the entire state,” said Eric Taubel, interim director of the state’s cannabis office.
The window will remain open through August.
Businesses that sell those products without registering face the destruction of all of their cannabinoid products and penalties of up to $10,000 per violation.
