BIDDEFORD — Canuvo, a medical marijuana dispensary in Biddeford is celebrating their 10-year anniversary. This is a major milestone for Canuvo on its mission to supply medical grade cannabis to clients, according to a company press release.

“Only 30 percent of companies in the U.S. make it to 10 years but the fact that we are a cannabis company makes this milestone even sweeter,” said Sage Peterson, CEO at Canuvo. “As a family we are committed to creating a strong company culture to support our employees and clients despite the challenges of growing a start-up in an un-regulated industry.”

This news comes in the wake of years of navigating Maine’s state regulated program while also being considered ‘illegal’ federally.

• Founded and licensed in 2010, Canuvo started in the Peterson family’s backyard and is the only Maine dispensary to be family owned and operated for its entire history.

• As an established business they are able to grow marijuana with no pesticides, lab test every batch of every product they sell, and commit to delivering informative and supportive customer care.

• Canuvo has proudly served the medical marijuana community of southern Maine for the past decade and is excited to do so into the future.

Canuvo will be celebrating this milestone with in-store events from April 28 through May 1 at the dispensary located at 4 Wellspring Road, Biddeford.

Canuvo is one of eight licensed medical marijuana dispensaries in the state of Maine. The company cultivates, manufactures, and retails most of its own products.
