The NuggMD Patient Choice Awards amplify the voices of cannabis consumers by allowing patients and recreational users nationwide to vote for their favorite dispensaries, brands, and products. MWG's wins reflect the Company's commitment to delivering high-quality products, exceptional customer service, and accessible pricing to California consumers. In Northern California, Perfect Union Northside earned Gold honors in four key categories: • Best Overall Dispensary • Best Prices • Best Selection • Best Budtenders 'These honors mark a continued wave of momentum for MWG Holdings in 2025, as the Company expands its award-winning product portfolio and deepens its roots in California communities,' said Tom Sheridan, CEO of MWG Holdings.
