What Our Clients Say About Catalyst BC
Latest Cannabis Industry Insights and News
Cannabis Dispensary Compliance: Training, Inventory & Profitability
In today’s regulated cannabis market, cannabis dispensary compliance is not optional—it is the foundation of a sustainable and profitable retail business. Every dispensary, from boutique shops to multi-state operators, must follow strict dispensary regulatory compliance standards, maintain accurate cannabis inventory management systems, and invest in ongoing cannabis dispensary training programs. Without a compliance-first mindset, dispensaries risk fines, license suspensions, product recalls, or even permanent closure.
Beyond Compliance: Implementing a Cannabis Dispensary Secret Shopper Program
As a cannabis retail owner, you operate in a high-stakes environment where federal prohibition meets state-regulated commerce. Your retail floor is not just a sales hub—it’s a constant target for mandatory inspection and the front line for brand differentiation. The most critical tool for navigating this complex reality is the professional, recurring Cannabis Secret Shopper program.
