JEFFERSON CITY, Mo.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Missouri Health & Wellness (MH&W), a state-licensed medical marijuana company, announced today that its Sedalia dispensary was recently approved by the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services to operate in Missouri. This is the second location approved for MH&W, which also operates dispensaries in Washington, Belton, Kirksville, and Jefferson City. MH&W plans to open to the public when marijuana becomes available by Missouri-licensed cultivators.

“We’ve had a lot of support from the community and people have been calling and stopping by asking when we’re going to open. We’re happy to say that we’re ready to serve patients in Sedalia and surrounding communities as soon as product is available,” said Randy Stambaugh, MH&W’s statewide manager.

MH&W’s ownership team combines professionals in the banking, legal, accounting, law enforcement, medical marijuana, and healthcare fields. Kathleen Beebe, MH&W’s regional manager, is conducting interviews and stated: “It’s important to MH&W to focus on diversity and hiring local people. We want to make a positive difference in the communities we serve.”

The company’s ownership team includes several doctors and a clinical pharmacist who have studied marijuana as a safe alternative to opioids. They have witnessed medical marijuana greatly enhance the quality of life for patients with chronic pain, inflammation, sleep disorders and more.
