Kentucky will license four types of cannabis businesses:
Cultivator. Dispensary. Processor. Safety-compliance (testing) facility.
The state will issue 48 dispensary licenses.
In addition to submitting a detailed application, MMJ business applicants must show they have the necessary financial resources to launch a business.
For example, according to WDRB, applicants seeking to open a dispensary “must prove $150,000 of sufficient capital available, pay a $5,000 nonrefundable application fee, then a nonrefundable $30,000 initial licensing fee if granted.”
