DORADO, Puerto Rico, March 06, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GSRX Industries Inc. (OTCQB: GSRX) (“GSRX” or the “Company”) announced today that, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Project 1493 LLC, the Company has completed construction of its seventh Green Spirit RX medicinal cannabis dispensary in Puerto Rico. Located in metropolitan San Juan’s Guaynabo municipality, this is the newest location for which the Company has received pre-qualification for a dispensary license from the Department of Health of Puerto Rico. Operations at the Guaynabo location will commence following final inspection and receipt of the requisite operating permit from the DHPR.
Currently, there are five Green Spirit RX medicinal cannabis dispensaries open in Puerto Rico, with locations in Dorado, Carolina, Fajardo, Andalucia and San Juan’s Hato Rey neighborhood. The Company has additional locations currently under development/construction in Isla Verde, Bayamón and Old San Juan.
Green Spirit’s newest Green Spirit RX dispensary is located at Urbanización Muñoz Rivera, Calle Acuarela C-15 (local A), Guaynabo, Puerto Rico, 00969. Guaynabo is located on Puerto Rico’s northern coast, west of San Juan, and is considered part of the San Juan metropolitan area. Guaynabo is the host city for a number of Puerto Rico’s annual festivals, including the Three Reyes Festival in January and Mabó Carnival in March. Approximately 100,000 people reside throughout Guaynabo’s ten wards and it is home to San Patricio Plaza, the three-level enclosed shopping mall that boasts more than 120 shops. Renowned rum distillery Casa Bacardí, a popular tourist attraction, is located in Guaynabo, as are La Marquesa Forest Park, Caparra Archaeological Site and nearby Isla de Cabras.
Like the Company’s other locations throughout Puerto Rico, GSRX’s Guaynabo dispensary will offer patients an extensive selection of medicinal cannabis. Importantly, the island's cannabis law includes a reciprocity policy that allows dispensaries to serve patients who are visiting for business or pleasure and who hold a medical cannabis card from their home state.
GSRX recently announced that it has adjusted its 1st quarter guidance upwards, citing stronger than anticipated sales across the Company’s dispensaries (GSRX Raises First Quarter Guidance).
