New York cannabis delivery license may resemble what other states have done with their cannabis delivery, but we won’t know for sure until legalization passes and final regulations are drafted in the Big City.

This time we bring you all the facts we have so far on the delivery license, while we wait for the legalization process to happen and the regulations to be finalised. If you are interested in starting a cannabis delivery business in New York you may be interested in start getting that business plan ready.

What is a Delivery License? 

“Delivery”  means  the  direct delivery of cannabis products by a retail licensee, microbusiness licensee, or delivery license holder to a cannabis consumer.

A delivery license will authorize the delivery of cannabis and cannabis products by licensees independent of another adult-use cannabis license.
