BASTROP, Texas — A medical cannabis company is expanding its footprint in the Lone Star State and accessfor patients.

Texas Original said it opened a 75,000-square-foot headquarters at 176 FM 969 in Bastrop – almost 10 times the size of its original facility.

The new building features a hybrid greenhouse, manufacturing and testing labs, as well as revamped logistics operations.

Company officials said it’s the state’s largest medical cannabis facility.

A state law passed earlier this year expanded patient access and the ailments that qualify for medical cannabis as part of the Texas Compassionate Use Program.

“This facility represents the future of medical cannabis in Texas,” said Nico Richardson, CEO of Texas Original. “Our expanded operations in Bastrop allow us to serve even more patients across the state, and with the quality expected from Texas Original. As legislative changes under House Bill 46 create opportunities for more Texans to access medical cannabis, we’re ready to meet that need.”

In addition to relocating its Bastrop headquarters, Texas Original has converted its former facility just south of Austin into one of Texas’ first satellite locations authorized under HB 46. Under the new regulations, these satellite locations allow for same-day pickups.
