NJ: Jersey City cannabis dispensary in Hudson County to unionize employees – Dispensary Founder and CEO Osbert Orduña Supports Move

Union recognition agreements provide a framework for industrial relations within an organization, setting out the rules and procedures to be used by both union and employer.

“There’s a clear and obvious need for more family-supporting careers throughout the cannabis industry,” The Cannabis Place Dispensary Founder and CEO Osbert Orduña said today.

“We want to set an example for the entire industry by creating local career opportunities and helping to support our local community, as well as other Black, Latino, LGBTQ+ and veteran owned businesses.”

Located at 1542 John F. Kennedy Blvd., the dispensary opened late last year and advocated for having union employees.

“While our work at the forefront of workers’ rights predates today’s legal cannabis industry, it has rarely been so vital. We’re proud both of what we’ve achieved on behalf of cannabis industry workers, and of our partnerships with inspirational business leaders like Osbert,” noted UFCW Local 360 President Sam Ferraino.
