Through the Local Alliance Program, existing owners with a dispensary in operation or dispensary license now have access to the buying power, resources and supportive network normally reserved for multi-unit operators. Additionally, the dispensary franchisor&#8217;s time-tested Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and veteran team guide franchise partners through every operational function of the business, whether it be assisting with cash flow, product selection or changing regulations. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re keeping dispensary ownership local and thriving with the backing of a franchise system,&#8221; said Unity Rd.&#8217;s VP of Franchise Development Justin Livingston. &#8220;The Local Alliance Program allows us to help existing dispensary operators learn from the experiences and best practices we&#8217;ve developed throughout our collective 120 years in cannabis. We&#8217;re offering the supportive network and tools they need to reach new heights and achieve their business goals.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Currently, the marijuana franchise has signed multiple agreements with more than 10 entrepreneurial groups across the country. Unity Rd. is initially seeking Local Alliance partners in <span class=\"xn-location\">Colorado<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-location\">Oklahoma<\/span>, among other existing new and mature U.S. cannabis markets.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As part of the Unity Rd. network, our Local Alliance partners can operate their dispensaries more efficiently \u2013 resulting in more time to focus on growing the business rather than managing it,&#8221; added Livingston. &#8220;It&#8217;s all part of our overarching goal to inspire confidence in the benefits of cannabis for all. We truly believe franchising will be the vehicle to help drive the cannabis industry forward \u2013 all while arming entrepreneurs across the country with the tools they need to be successful so that ownership and revenues stay local.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Unity Rd. franchise partners receive even more resources and supply chain connections as <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3130419-1&amp;h=858210909&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.prnewswire.com%2Fnews-releases%2Funity-rd-becomes-first-vertically-integrated-dispensary-franchise-through-item-9-labs-acquisition-of-one-cannabis-group-301253905.html&amp;a=the+brand+was+recently+acquired+by+Item+9+Labs+Corp.\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">the brand was recently acquired by Item 9 Labs Corp.<\/a>, an award-winning cannabis operator.
