While that's a pretty big stretch of real estate, it does make one begin to wonder if the market will quickly become oversaturated. Many of the current dispensaries open have upped their game by not only offering curbside pick-up but even offering delivery services!

There's no guarantee that all pending licenses will be approved, so only time will tell how stiff the competition will become.
