Asking Price: 1,999,999
WeCann is pleased to present the opportunity to acquire a fully operational, rapidly scaling cannabis dispensary located in the most dominant retail and transit-oriented commercial district in the Bronx, widely regarded as the strongest retail location in the borough.
This offering provides immediate entry into a high-visibility, high-volume urban cannabis market, with strong early sales, long-term site control, and retail fundamentals that are exceptionally difficult to replicate in New York City.
Why This Is the Best Retail Location in the Bronx
This dispensary is positioned within the Bronx’s primary shopping corridor, defined by institutional-grade retail, massive pedestrian flow, and constant transit activity.
