Analysis: We know who might sell medical cannabis in Sioux Falls, but there's still a ways to go

With Sioux Falls' five medical marijuana licenses tentatively assigned to businesses, we're finally getting a clearer picture of what the newest industry could look like in the coming months.

While there were concerns from some that the city's fees and regulations could result in national companies taking over medical cannabis sales while local businesses struggled to nab one of the city's five licenses, Wednesday's lottery results have created a seemingly-even spread for the five-dispensary cap on licenses in Sioux Falls.

The Flower Shop LLC and East River Farms LLC both had the only application they turned in selected for a license, and PJS Holdings made the cut from only two submissions.
