Cannabis REIT Chicago Atlantic Closes $20M Facility With Massachusetts Weed Co. That Plans To Expand In These Key Markets
Massachusetts-based integrated cannabis operator Nova Farms has received a $20 million loan facility from Chicago Atlantic Real Estate Finance. Nova Farms manages a Massachusetts cultivation farm, seven retail brands, and five full-service dispensaries across the Bay State, Maine, and New Jersey. It was among the first businesses to secure licenses in Massachusetts upon the state's legalization of recreational cannabis back in 2016. Chicago Atlantic's capital investment is expected to back Nova Farms' efforts to expand its footprint of dispensaries in key states, namely New Jersey and Connecticut.
