Cannabis Cultivation Facility for sale in MS 39666

Duran Advisors presents this Medical Cultivation Operation For Sale in Mississippi. The company is renowned for its premium products, which makes it a preferred supplier for many dispensaries. It holds a significant market share in a rapidly growing medical market, with products distributed to a large number of dispensaries across the state. The cultivation facility is equipped with advanced technology and efficient operational processes, ensuring high-quality output and scalability. With increasing patient counts and potential legislative changes, the market is projected to grow significantly, providing substantial upside for the new owner.

The current owners seek to sell due to capital constraints, but the existing owners are committed to ensuring a smooth transition. Key management is willing to continue growing the business with a new owner. The non-essential owners are also willing to provide support during the handover period to maintain operational continuity and client relationships. The business is managed by a team of seasoned professionals with extensive experience in cultivation, sales, and operations. 

While the business boasts consistent revenue from a diversified customer base of dispensaries throughout Mississippi, it requires additional working capital to fully realize its growth potential to expand production and marketing efforts. There is significant potential for expansion into the edible market and future recreational sales, providing a substantial growth trajectory for the new owner. 

This opportunity is ideal for an investor or company looking to enter or expand in the burgeoning industry. The buyer should have the necessary capital to invest in growth initiatives and the capability to scale the business to its full potential. Between working capital and expansion plans within the first year, a buyer should have at least one million liquid beyond the sale price.

The business resides in a ~10,000+ square foot facility on 2.5 acres of land with ample room to expand. The property, recently valued at $1,000,000, is being sold with the business.

A Matterport 3-D Virtual Reality scan of the entire premises is available for fully disclosed buyers, as is a 50+ page Confidential Information Memo (CIM).

Once properly capitalized, current monthly sales should immediately increase to $100,000 per month because of unmet demand from dispensaries. Future revenue for the facility will reach capacity between $5-7 million per year, depending on product mix and efficiency.

This is a structured sale with the following schedule:

7/19 Question Submission Deadline

Opportunities

Growth: Product Line Expansion: Poised to extend its offerings to include edibles, the company is strategically positioned to capture a broader customer base. Anticipated changes in legislation could further expand the market to recreational, significantly enhancing revenue potential. Increased Production Capacity: Investment opportunities exist to scale up production facilities to meet growing demand. The company is equipped with advanced cultivation technologies, and expanding these facilities could drive higher output and efficiency. Acquisition of Processing License: Securing a processing license would enable the company to manage more of its production process in-house, increasing control over operations and profit margins. This strategic move is expected to streamline operations and enhance product offerings. Marketing and Brand Development: There is substantial potential to expand the company’s market presence through enhanced marketing strategies and digital outreach. Increasing brand visibility and consumer engagement is key to driving sales and solidifying market position. Infrastructure Improvements: Plans include the construction of a new processing facility to support increased production volume and improve operational efficiency. This development will facilitate higher product quality and more efficient supply chain management. Expansion of Sales and Distribution Networks: Expanding the sales team and distribution network will enable the company to access new markets and improve penetration in existing markets, maximizing coverage and revenue growth.

Market: The Medical and Recreational Stores industry, which includes stores that retail medical (by prescription only) and recreational, has expanded dramatically over the past five years. The legalization of products for medical and/or recreational purposes and the growing acceptance of legal products use provided operators and investors with unprecedented opportunities. There has been no shortage of demand over recent years, and the industry has become one of the fastest-growing in the United States. The legalization of recreational sales in several states has fueled revenue growth. Furthermore, the licensing of commercial recreational retailers has caused new entrants to flood the legalized market. At the time of writing, 21 states (Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia and Washington) and the District of Columbia have legalized the use and sale of recreational marijuana, Meanwhile, medical marijuana dispensaries have continued to benefit from the steadily aging population and growing acceptance of the medical applications of marijuana. Also, the continued development of edible cannabis products has helped attract consumers that were unfamiliar with marijuana products or averse to smoking. Edible products and vaporizer pens will continue to be a growth segment for the industry in the coming years, as they are convenient alternatives to traditional cannabis consumption. Overall, industry revenue has been growing at an average annualized 28.7% over the past five years, and is expected to total $36.1 billion in 2023, when revenue will jump an estimated 11.8%. Over the next five years, industry revenue is expected to increase at a CAGR of 14.6% to reach an estimated $71.5 billion. Nonetheless, the industry will likely remain at risk until the federal government definitively changes its position on the legality of marijuana. Until then, an uptick in the number of medical marijuana patients and a growing recreational cannabis legalization movement will reap long-term benefits for the industry. Rising demand is also forecast to widen profit margins, as is the success of for-profit recreational marijuana businesses in states with large consumer markets like California, Colorado and Washington.
