Has Cannabis Been Legalized in

Mississippi?

In 2022, Mississippi officially launched its medical cannabis program under the Mississippi Medical Cannabis Act, overseen by the Mississippi State Department of Health. Patients with qualifying conditions can obtain medical marijuana from licensed dispensaries. Recreational use remains illegal at this time, though the medical market continues to develop, sparking new opportunities for businesses looking to serve patients responsibly.

How to Get a Cannabis License in

Mississippi?

The state has set specific licensing procedures, typically involving:

  1. A thorough application detailing your business plan and compliance measures.
  2. Background checks for owners and key stakeholders.
  3. Proper facility, seed-to-sale tracking, and security setups.
  4. Alignment with any local zoning rules or municipality requirements.

With competition for licenses high, applicants should stay current on evolving regulations and ensure their applications meet all criteria.

Working with Mike Kowal was truly an exceptional experience from start to finish. He was personable, highly responsive, and consistently communicative, taking the time to educate me throughout the entire process so I fully understood what was happening at every step.

What truly set Mike apart was his honesty. He reviewed multiple lender options with me in a fair, transparent way, walking me through the pros and cons of each and helping me understand every angle. He encouraged me to move forward only with what felt right for my business, never once making me feel pressured to choose him or Upwise. That level of professionalism is rare.

Mike also worked hard to build genuine personal rapport — something no other representative I spoke with did. He took the time to understand my business, explored different paths, and made sure I felt confident and comfortable throughout the decision-making process.

The follow-up from Mike and every member of his team has been above and beyond anything I’ve experienced with other lenders. Every interaction feels thoughtful, client-focused, supportive and most important- genuine. I’m incredibly grateful for the experience and would confidently recommend Mike to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, ethical, and truly client-first lending partner.

I was able to secure a business loan in an industry that typically has a hard time getting approved. Craig and the team at Upwise made it happen from start to finish. Professional, responsive, and results-driven. A+ experience all around!
Upwise Capital and Daniel Joseph were great in helping me obtain financing and grow my janitorial business. Mr. Joseph is quick, efficient and professional. Funding was complete in just a few hours. Daniel is very detailed and easy to work with. He stuck with me from beginning to end. Thank you Upwise Capital and Daniel for helping to expand my business. I appreciate all your help.
The rates for loans are horrible, and if you disagree with them, they get angry and hang up on you lol. It is clear they are in business to get the best deal for themselves, not the customer. Leo Lamb, one of their funding managers comes across like a used car salesman. When I called them out for their shady practices, he got very aggravated.

Update: Leo contacted me, and after basically insulting me concerning their prior behavior, I decided to let them run my application. After being ghosted for the day, they finally came back and denied due to another loan my business was involved in. These people get their feelings hurt way to easy to be in this business. I would not recommend this company to anyone.

We worked with Leo for our line of credit. We are a trucking company an can be a challenge to secure financing. The process was smooth and fast funding. Our only complaint would be that Leo was a little impatience when it came to our decision making. We are very thankful for the funding and would do business with them again. Thanks,

You are always hesitant when working with a finance firm to borrow money to grow your company But, I highly recommend Upwise Capital. Lou and Marc went out of their way to ensure everything was taken care of. Very professional in all steps taken to secure the financing I needed. I look forward to continuing the business relationship.
I rarely write reviews, but my experience with Leo was absolutely. Leo was patient, knowledgeable, and extremely responsive. During a hectic work week he continued to bare with me to be sure that i had all the information I was requesting. He got me the capital I needed within one day. I highly recommend this company!
