New MÜV™ Medical Cannabis Dispensary Brings Jobs and Award-Winning Products to Cape Coral - 'The Happiest City in Florida'

SARASOTA, Fla., Nov. 17, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- AltMed Florida, one of the fastest growing medical cannabis companies in Florida, continues its statewide expansion with a three-day opening, starting Friday Nov.20, 2020 at 10am for its newest MÜV™ Medical Cannabis Dispensary.

Location: 2612 Santa Barbara Blvd. on the southwest corner of Santa Barbara and Veterans Pkwy.

"The residents of Lee County love the quality of therapeutics and the level of customer care they receive at our dispensaries," said John Tipton, AltMed Florida CEO. "This newest addition will compliment what's already happening at our nearby locations in Fort Meyers and Bonita Springs."

"Given the exceptional patient demand and our continuous growth in southwest Florida, the Cape Coral location is a natural addition to our MÜV Dispensary portfolio as we serve patients statewide," said Mike Smullen, AltMed Enterprises Chairman, Co-Founder and CEO.

Described as a 'Waterfront Wonderland', Cape Coral ranked first in Florida in WalletHub's 2019 'The Happiest Cities in America'; a perfect match for the iconic MÜV smiling logo.

During the opening, staggered over three-days (Nov.20-Nov.22) for crowd mitigation, all licensed Florida medical cannabis patients will receive a one-time use only, one per patient, 25 percent off their entire first purchase. Patients can begin ordering for express pickup on Thursday Nov.19 at muvfl.com where they will see real-time live inventory including specific strains and potencies of products.

Deemed an essential service during the pandemic, AltMed Florida has been able to expand its workforce to over 700 employees with additional teams coming onboard at each of its 16 new dispensaries this year. With higher demand for products from 27 total dispensaries, AltMed has also generated additional construction employment and staffing with the expansion of its 220,000-square-foot cultivation facility in Apollo Beach.

The newest state-of-the-art MÜV dispensary will offer an extensive selection of award-winning products including flower, pre-rolls, a wide range of vaporizer pens, metered dose inhalers, topicals, oral sprays, patent-pending encapsulation formulations in its Tinctures, 72-Hour Transdermal patches and transdermal gels. MÜV also has one of the widest selections of concentrates for patients' needing macro-dosing options.

Like AltMed Florida's 26 other locations (Apollo Beach, Bradenton, Bonita Springs, Clearwater, Deerfield Beach, Fort Myers, Gainesville, Jacksonville/San Marco, Jacksonville Beach, Lady Lake, Lakeland, Longwood/Orlando, Lutz, North Port, downtown Orlando, Ormond Beach, Pensacola, Port St. Lucie, Sebastian, Sarasota, St. Petersburg, Shalimar, Tallahassee, Tampa, Wellington and West Palm Beach) MÜV Dispensaries are designed to provide a premium experience – think Apple Store, with a modern design and expert staff that undergoes extensive training.

The MÜV brand already has a wide following in other legal medical cannabis markets, including Arizona, where it has won five Best of Arizona medical cannabis awards. MÜV products are sold exclusively in Florida at MÜV dispensaries because, unlike other states, Florida does not allow wholesale of product between license holders - only products that license holders make themselves can be sold in their dispensaries.
