SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Zoned Properties®, Inc. (OTCQB: ZDPY), a strategic real estate development firm whose primary mission is to provide real estate and sustainability services for the regulated cannabis industry, positioning the company for property acquisitions and revenue growth, today announced the market launch of its partnership with dispensary retail franchisor, The Open Dør.
Earlier this year, Zoned Properties invested the start-up capital for the cannabis franchise organization and has provided leadership guidance to The Open Dør founders. As a strategic partner, Zoned Properties intends to play a significant role related to the intricacies of capital investment and commercial real estate development in the regulated cannabis industry.
Co-founded by international franchisor Kathryn Blackwell and cannabis compliance expert Chelsea Mulligan, The Open Dør concept was designed to remove the complexities from cannabis and help license holders enter the market faster and with more efficiency. Blackwell will serve as CEO and Mulligan will serve as COO at The Open Dør.
“After years of professional interactions and collaboration with Kathryn and Chelsea, we made the decision to back this exciting new venture that we believe the regulated cannabis market desperately needs in its evolution as an emerging industry,” stated Bryan McLaren, CEO of Zoned Properties.
Pioneered by proven business professionals and led by strong female visionaries, The Open Dør provides a modern cannabis retail model with a turnkey approach. Through Zoned Properties, McLaren will serve as Strategic Real Estate Advisor at The Open Dør, providing an extra layer of start-up support.
“The Open Dør gives cannabis stakeholders and dispensary license holders the opportunity to invest in a franchise brand built on proven and compliant operations with an elevated consumer retail experience,” said The Open Dør co-founders in a joint statement.
Headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, cannabis franchise opportunities with The Open Dør are available in states throughout the U.S. with legal medical and adult-use marijuana programs.
“We believe The Open Dør will become one of the most important, value-driven catalysts for Zoned Properties to expand its business model and grow to meet the needs of our industry. The Open Dør team and its consumer-focused culture represents a bright future for the cannabis community,” commented McLaren. “We intend to provide on-going support for the expansion of The Open Dør, positioning Zoned Properties to directly benefit from both the organizational partnership and future equity rights related to the convertible start-up capital we provided.”

In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “potential,” “continue” or similar expressions.

COVID-19 Statement
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. We are monitoring this closely, and although operations have not been materially affected by the COVID-19 outbreak to date, the ultimate duration and severity of the outbreak and its impact on the economic environment and our business is uncertain. Currently, all of the properties in our portfolio are open to our Significant Tenants and their customers and will remain open pursuant to state and local government requirements. At this time, we do not foresee any material changes to our operations from COVID-19. Our tenants are continuing to generate revenue at these properties and they have continued to make rental payments in full and on time and we believe the tenants’ liquidity position is sufficient to cover its expected rental obligations. Accordingly, while we do not anticipate an impact on our operations, we cannot estimate the duration of the pandemic and potential impact on our business if the properties must close or if the tenants are otherwise unable or unwilling to make rental payments. In addition, a severe or prolonged economic downturn could result in a variety of risks to our business, including weakened demand for our properties and a decreased ability to raise additional capital when needed on acceptable terms, if at all. At this time, the Company is unable to estimate the impact of this event on its operations.
