GLOUCESTER, Mass.--()--Massachusetts’ most innovative and customer-focused cannabis dispensary is set to launch on Thursday, July 16, when Happy Valley opens its new medical and recreational retail location in Gloucester.

“We founded Happy Valley with a mission statement to create consistent, premium-quality cannabis products and then provide access to those products in a modern retail environment dedicated to educating our customers so they select the optimal products and consumption methods for their desired experience,” said company CEO Michael Reardon.

Happy Valley’s in-store experience features fast check-in and express pick-up lines, educational touch-screens, and expertly educated hosts with a focus on customer service.

Happy Valley has created 127 jobs at its Gloucester location, 35 percent of them held by residents of the city of Gloucester and another 10 percent from neighboring Essex, Manchester-by-the-Sea, and Rockport.

The Happy Valley Insider Mobile app provides a live menu, access to purchase history, rewards points for medical patients, and a personal Journal to keep track of experiences.
