V7 Ogimaa, Inc. has secured the fully vertical adult use cannabis consumption lounge in the state of New York and in US East Coast through one of its subsidiaries. The provisional vertical consumption lounge license has been issued by the Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe Cannabis Control Board.
On June 28, 2021 the Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe successfully adopted the Tribal Adult Use Cannabis Ordinance via Tribal Council Resolution (2021-33). Most recently, on January 25, 2023 the Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe amended the Adult Use Cannabis Ordinance via Tribal Council Resolution (2023-05) to allow vertically integrated consumption lounges.
"This day marks an important milestone, as V7O in collaboration with Turtle Island Corporation (TIC) and the Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe Cannabis Control Board formally issue the first compliant vertical adult use cannabis consumption lounge license in Indian country, New York state, and East Coast of United States. This is monumental for the cannabis industry as whole, as we are now entering a new era of cannabis hospitality which has recently surged in the industry. Our sincere gratitude to the Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe as they continue to structure a best in class cannabis program and allow additional economic opportunities through this industry," stated Victor E. Mancebo, chairman of V7 Ogimaa.
Lance White, founder & president of TIC, stated: "Forming a true partnership with V7O has been a long-term strategy for our tribal nation and exemplifies what Turtle Island Corporation is all about, which is creating opportunities within our nation for our community on a national stage."
