Project description: With dispensaries in five other states, Florida-based Bloom Medicinals is opening four Show-Me State outlets, including the Springfield store that is scheduled to open in mid-November. The dispensary website outlines a wide selection of marijuana products, plus cannabis flower products, edibles and concentrates. Bloom also offers help to customers who are interested in obtaining a medical marijuana card. According to John Ignat, project manager and superintendent with Green Industry Construction Services, the access-controlled building features a large vault for its cannabis products. “There’s a lot of site security,” Ignat said.
