NORWOOD, Mass., April 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MariMed Inc. (MariMed, the Company) (CSE: MRMD) (OTCQX: MRMD), a leading multi-state cannabis operator focused on improving lives every day, today announced the closing of its acquisition of the operating assets of Our Community Wellness & Compassionate Care Center, Inc. ("Medleaf") in Prince George's County, Maryland on April 5th. Just prior to closing, MariMed paid the state's adult-use conversion fee and subsequently received an adult-use license to sell retail cannabis products from the Maryland Cannabis Administration (MCA).
