Kaneh Bosm BioTechnology Inc. is planning on installing two of its latest marijuana vending machines at MedSmart Dispensary Inc. in Vancouver, British Columbia later this month.
The machines are expected to make medical marijuana products more accessible to patients while reducing the cost and risks associated with typical dispensaries.
Better Quality
Kaneh Bosm President and Director Michael Martinz said the machines will change the way patients receive their marijuana medication by making it safer for them to use.
Some patients who require treatment via medical marijuana have weak immune systems; and since the machine limits the number of people handling the drug, it reduces the risk of spreading disease pathogens.
Additionally, the climate control provided by the machines ensures that the marijuana is not exposed to bacterial viruses and that the quality of the product is preserved.
Lower Cost
The vending machines are expected to provide marijuana products 24/7 by using a software system that recognizes the user's age and whether or not they have a permit to buy the drug.
Kaneh Bosm says it expects the use of these machines to significantly cut down on the labor costs for dispensing marijuana while also making it more accessible to patients.
Safer
The machines are also expected to cut down on marijuana dispensary crime.
Because most marijuana transactions are made in cash, dispensaries end up storing a large amount of money, making them more vulnerable to theft. However, these machines will be able to accept credit card payments.
