Preventing sales to anyone under the designated legal purchasing age of 19 for cannabis sales, and to intoxicated people, will be a core focus of the cannabis retailing subsidiary of the PEILCC. All retail staff will be well-trained in ID verification and responsible service.

Products will need to be stored, packed, and distributed in a safe and controlled manner.
