How and when did your dispensary start up?
Our dispensary started up the summer of 2009. We were the 63rd license issued in the entire state of Colorado. As a family owned and operated business we care greatly for our patients and ultimately, that was just it. We had and still have a huge passion to provide quality cannabis as an alternative medicine to those truly in need.
What’s the story behind the name of your shop?
The name Quality Choice is just like it sounds. To us and our patients, Quality Choice means setting the standard in this industry by providing connoisseur-approved meds every time!
What does your dispensary offer clients that they can’t find anywhere else? What do you specialize in, if anything?
Our store offers our patients a select variety of phenotypes, specific to their individual needs. We also offer the largest selection of concentrates in Colorado Springs.
When we opened our doors, cannabis was strictly medicinal. Now it’s both recreational and medicinal, but not in Colorado Springs. We would like to see that change.
What are the biggest challenges you face in this industry as a dispensary? Biggest joys?
The biggest challenges in this industry is just the saturation of it all. While many opportunities are opening up, competition is still everywhere! The biggest joys are simply making people happy again, after years of being in pain. Also, turning skeptics into true believers of the healing benefits of cannabis is awesome too!
What is the one thing you want patients to know about your dispensary?
One thing we want patients to know about our dispensary is that we take quality to a whole new level!
If someone wanted to open an dispensary and get their feet wet in the industry, what advice or counsel would you give them?
Advice to someone just joining the industry would be to stay patient and keep focused on what you’re trying to achieve. There are a lot of ups and downs in this work but it’s well worth it in the end. Also, patients are number one and quality counts!
What is the most important thing you hope to accomplish while in the MJ/MMJ community?
We hope to provide people in need with an alternative to poisonous pharmaceuticals for years to come. We want as many patients as possible to benefit from a more natural way of healing.
