Miami, Florida – Knox Medical will open the doors to its first of five new Miami-Dade dispensaries on January 19th to members of the public and press. The new location in North Miami Beach continues the company's Phase 2 expansion plans.

A media preview of the facility will take place on the morning of Saturday, January 19th at 11:00 A.M. at the Knox Medical dispensary located at 175 NW 167th St, Miami, FL 33169.

An open house will be held immediately afterward for current and future patients. Knox Curators will be on hand to guide patients through the company's products, including the latest THC concentrate formulations and the company's latest proprietary CBD product line, Perla. Members of the public who are not currently registered with the Department of Health Office of Medical Marijuana Use are also welcome to find out more about the process of becoming a patient and will have the chance to speak with local physicians and care providers. 

“As a company firmly based in Miami, it feels great to be coming home," said José J. Hidalgo, Founder and CEO. "From our headquarters in Wynwood, we work tirelessly to bring the industry's safest and most advanced formulations to more patients in more places around the world. To open this location in our backyard is a great achievement for us. This dispensary will serve not just as a source for medicines, but also a resource for patients, caregivers, and their providers on their path to health and wellness."

Former NFL and University of Miami Football Player Willis McGahee will also be in attendance to meet patients and share his story of using Knox Medical products as a way to treat his medical conditions. The former All-Star running back has recently joined nearly 200,000 other Floridians with Medical Marijuana ID cards on their journeys to wellness through modern medical cannabis. 

The new dispensary becomes the 10th facility in the company's national network of dispensaries. Since being one of the first companies to operate in Florida in 2016, Knox Medical has grown to serve tens of thousands of patients across Florida, Texas, Pennsylvania, and Puerto Rico.

Knox Medical is a national leader in cultivating, processing, and dispensing the highest quality medical cannabis products. Patients from around the country and beyond have come to associate Knox with an unrivaled experience that puts the needs and interests of our patients first.

The company is one of Florida's first Medical Marijuana Treatment Centers (MMTCs) to be granted a license by the Department of Health after receiving the highest score of all applicants in 2015.
