Marijuana could go mainstream, and MedMen wants to be the industry’s Starbucks. The cannabis chain is riding the weed wave with 12 locations in Los Angeles, New York, and Nevada. They’re not catering to the stereotypical pothead; instead they’re “mainstreaming marijuana” so that buying cannabis could become like “going to buy a new computer or a new set of headphones, or to get something fixed,” explains the CEO. They’re even planning on opening a Fifth Avenue flagship later this year. (Fast Company)
