Exposing the right opportunities is challenging

The 482 localities in California each have unique systems for maintaining cannabis regulatory information. Shryne Group is always looking for opportunities to expand its cannabis portfolio amidst intense competition for licenses focusing mainly on obtaining retail licenses in newly legalized or expanding municipalities to grow. Their expansion analysts must be proactive in searching for potential growth areas and predicting when these localities will open application periods. Previously, they would spend hours manually tracking activity through fragmented government sources and reaching out to localities for regulatory updates or licensing details.
