Mehta said it was a challenge adjusting to the new volume of both customers and people on staff. Las Vegas sees 40 times the entire population of Montana in tourists every year.

“When we did open, it took a lot of time to just get all the regulations together, then our first grow and then getting everything to pass testing.” “That part has been a fine line to walk, but other than that it’s just been an insane learning experience,” he said. Mehta believes what the industry’s cannabis enthusiasts want from a dispensary might not be exactly what the investors want, so there’s often a tit-for-tat battle. “When we went from our Montana operation to this Vegas operation, we had to adjust to both a lot of rules and regulations and a lot of investor types. “It’s been a lot more than I anticipated,” said Mehta. This week, Cannabis Now spoke with Sahil Mehta, one of Euphoria’s business directors, about what the last year has been like as they’ve adjusted to the demands of one of the biggest recreational cannabis market in the world.

When adult-use sales commenced in Nevada last summer, Euphoria was more than ready. In the end, Euphoria won the race and was the first dispensary to open for medical sales in the Las Vegas area. This history provided them with a solid footing to jump through all the hoops Nevada’s regulatory bodies put in front of them. The dispensary opened in the suburbs of Las Vegas on August 24, 2015, and has been steadily cementing their place as one of the most renowned shops in the legendary tourist town ever since.Įuphoria’s team came to Las Vegas a few years ago to open a medical marijuana dispensary, after gaining years of industry experience in Montana. It’s been nearly eight months since Euphoria Wellness opened their doors to all adults over the age of 21.
