ParcelPal Offers Dispensaries Technology Solution to Enable On-line Purchase and On-Demand Delivery of Medical Marijuana
Vancouver, British Columbia (FSCwire) - ParcelPal Technology Inc. (“ParcelPal” or the “Company”), (PKG:CSE) (FSE:PT0) (OTC:PTNYF) – is pleased to announce an industry first, with the launch of what is believed to be the world's only integrated technology that connects marijuana dispensaries to their patients, allowing customers to purchase federally regulated medical marijuana and have it delivered within an hour.
ParcelPal’s feature-rich solution consists of an online ordering platform and cashless payment system that will let patients select their choice of product and have it delivered within an hour. The ordering and delivery platform use advanced data encryption between ParcelPal, the merchant and consumer to ensure the security and privacy of the patient and merchant. The solution is designed for quick implementation; allowing dispensaries to take advantage of multi-channel sales and increase their on-line presence.
The legal marijuana market is growing at a spectacular rate. In Canada, where medical use is legal, the imminent legalization of sales for recreational use portends a dramatic uptick in the scale of the on-the-books industry. In the United States, 28 states have now legalized medical marijuana, a trend that looks to continue. ParcelPal has positioned itself to provide much needed infrastructure to this burgeoning industry.
President Kelly Abbott states, “The online ordering platform is easy to use, fast, convenient and straight forward for merchants and their customers. Customers simply log onto the dispensaries website and select the product they wish to purchase and receive the product within an hour after purchase. Dispensaries that shift from a brick and mortar sales approach to multi-channel online sales strategy will attract more customers and increase sales by offering a seamless online ordering and delivery experience. This puts the ordering directly at the consumers’ fingertips.”
CEO Jason Moreau states, “With our platform, merchants can change their product selection, promote sales of certain product, and offer new products, all in near real-time and, provide their local customers with delivery within the hour.”
