The city of Anoka is taking the plunge into Minnesota’s recreational cannabis market with the opening of its new dispensary, making it one of the first municipal operations in the country and the first in the state.
Anoka Cannabis Company held a soft opening on Feb. 5 to cannabis industry insiders.
The shop is believed to be one of the only government-run dispensaries currently operating in the country. But it’s not the first of its kind.
In 2015, the city of North Bonneville in Washington opened a city-operated cannabis retail store that eventually closed down in 2021. North Bonneville Mayor Brian Sabo told MPR News in March 2024 the closure was due to poor sales.
Twelve other cities applied for a retail cannabis license with Minnesota’s Office of Cannabis Management. Anoka was the first to break ground on a cannabis store last May and will be running the shop on the city’s own.
