The Alabama Medical Cannabis Commission has awarded licenses for a second time to businesses that intend to be part of Alabama’s new medical marijuana industry.

The AMCC, meeting in Montgomery, voided the license awards it announced two months ago and voted again on the companies that will cultivate, process, transport, test, and dispense medical marijuana products.

The AMCC awarded licenses to 24 companies, including 19 that were among the 21 awarded last time. It awarded licenses to seven cultivators, three more than it did last time.
