Can't find this  "I questioned how they would get drinks across Cal with a couple of electrician's vans" in your history of posts. Please put up the link.

Would they be delivering a couple of cases ( talking 4 packs here) to each dispensary on a run around the state and doing that on a continuous basis. I had also suggested they use distributors instead, only to be shot down by the classic pumpers on here. Your post only confirms that they didn't have a clue. And to think that management have years of experience in the beverage industry!!! Until this latest distributor is licensed how will they get beverages to market? Obviously they are focusing on lemonade distribution with Mars,it will be at least a year before they are able to distribute THC drinks. That is why they'll be using TNY cube van in the meantime. TNY have the license to distribute. To distribute THC drinks, a couple cases at a time across California!
