The company's Merritt Island storefront marks record organic growth in the state

MERRITT ISLAND, Fla., Oct. 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/ - Trulieve Cannabis Corp. (CSE: TRUL) (OTCQX: TCNNF) ("Trulieve" or "the Company"), a leading and top-performing cannabis company based in the United States, announced today the opening of a brand-new Florida dispensary. Merritt Island will be home to the Company's 60th dispensary in its home state of Florida and 62nd nationwide. The 6,500 sq. ft. location will directly support patients throughout Brevard County and along the Space Coast.

Located off the Merritt Island Causeway, the dispensary supports Trulieve's goal of expanding and ensuring direct, reliable patient access to medical cannabis across its home state of Florida. It also joins the Company's 59 other dispensaries statewide, including the nearby Melbourne, Titusville, and Port St. Lucie locations.

"When identifying new locations, we focus first on access; particularly, how we can best support patients across Florida. With approximately 90,000 new patients joining the state's registry over the past six months, our goal is to ensure that they have access to the products they've come to rely on," said Trulieve CEO Kim Rivers. "Our latest Merritt Island location is particularly exciting as it will not only be one of our larger stores, but it will allow us to better support our dedicated Trulievers along the Space Coast. From new patients to experienced ones, we're looking forward to celebrating natural, effective relief across Brevard."

In honor of the Company's new dispensary, all patients — from those new to Trulieve to the dedicated Truliever community — will be eligible for a 25% in-store discount at the new Merritt Island location on opening day. In line with policies that have been adopted statewide, all visitors will be required to wear masks inside the dispensary. Additionally, only patients and their state-approved caregivers will be allowed inside the waiting room and dispensary at this time.

Furthermore, to assist with CDC recommendations for social distancing and in compliance with additional company-enforced safety guidelines, several measures have been taken to ensure the health and well-being of employees and patients, including modifying the store layout, installation of plexiglass partitions and HEPA air filtration scrubbers in the dispensaries, increasing access to masks and sanitizer throughout the store for staff and visitors, utilizing visual aids to direct traffic throughout the store, and increasing the frequency of deep cleanings for all dispensaries.

Trulieve is closely monitoring the coronavirus situation and will update store policies as needed to ensure the safety of patients and staff; all updates will be shared directly on Trulieve's website as they are enacted.

As the state's leading medical cannabis provider, Trulieve's employees are experienced, knowledgeable, and eager to help patients. Trulieve encourages potential patients, as well as patients who are new to cannabis and to our wide array of products, to connect with the staff in-store or through the online chat feature to learn more.

The Office of Medical Marijuana Use recently announced the registry was quickly approaching 425,000 registered medical marijuana patients with an active ID card, with Trulieve consistently selling approximately half of the state's overall volume, per the Florida Department of Health. To support the state's rapidly growing patient base, there are over 2,600 registered ordering physicians in the State of Florida.
