Business Planning & Strategic Coaching
Before a single page of the application was written, Quantum 9 worked with BLKBRN to shape a credible, fundable, and competitive cannabis retail concept. Together, we built a strong foundation for success at both state and municipal levels. We advised on:
- Business model development and feasibility strategy
- Financial and operational planning aligned with local expectations
- Positioning for scoring criteria at both city and state levels
- Hands-on coaching through early-stage vision and structure
This high-impact strategic work set BLKBRN up for licensing success.
License Application & Regulatory Navigation
Quantum 9 led the full application process for BLKBRN, navigating the complexities of New Jersey’s adult-use program. In Highland Park—where only five licenses were awarded—BLKBRN’s application earned the highest score of any submission. Our work included:
- End-to-end license application project management
- Interpretation of regulatory and municipal requirements
- Coordination with local leadership and community integration
- Comprehensive submission strategy for both municipal and state approval
The result: a winning license in a highly competitive New Jersey market.
What We Delivered
From concept to licensing, Quantum 9 served as a strategic driver behind BLKBRN’s successful market entry. Our regulatory insight, precise application work, and real-time coaching helped turn an idea into a fully licensed dispensary.
Today, BLKBRN is poised for long-term impact in New Jersey’s adult-use cannabis industry.
“Quantum 9 provided strategic oversight and hands-on support throughout the application process, leading to our submission receiving the highest score among all applicants... Their results speak volumes.”
