4Front Ventures announced the opening of its second Illinois retail with a grand opening scheduled for 9 a.m. Tuesday, December 15.

This new 3,000- square-foot facility located at 1330 Torrence Ave., is about 20 miles south of Chicago and the closest dispensary to the Indiana state line.

Mission Calumet City will host a socially distant, grand-opening ceremony which will include a tour of the dispensary for special guests and appearances by Mission/4Front executives to mark this momentous occasion.

The doors for the adult use dispensary will open for business to the public at 10 a.m.

4Front previously announced it received a special use permit July 22nd for the additional retail location in Calumet.

“The opening of Mission Calumet City is another significant milestone for the Company and a testament to our commitment to the Illinois community. It is important for us to demonstrate that we are fully committed to being a contributing member of the community, adding to economic development during a difficult time,” said 4Front and Mission President Kris Krane. “This expansion into Calumet City was a natural next step as we aim to provide access to cannabis products. We are excited to launch here and look forward to becoming a staple in the community and meeting the needs of our customers.”

4Front Ventures’s other dispensary, Mission South Chicago, is for adult use customers and medical patients.
