President of Trulieve Cannabis retires

The president of Trulieve Cannabis Corp. has stepped down, effective Oct. 1.

Steve White will continue to serve as a strategic adviser for the cannabis company until his anticipated retirement at the end of this year.

Mr. White co-founded Harvest Health & Recreation in 2011 and served as its CEO until it was acquired by Tallahassee, Fla.-based Trulieve.

Trulieve has about 20 dispensaries throughout Pennsylvania, which locally includes the North Shore, Whitehall, Washington, Cranberry, and Zelienople.

“It has been an honor to work with the talented and passionate teams at Harvest and Trulieve, joined together by the common goal of serving patients and customers through expanded access to cannabis,” White said.

White led Arizona-based Harvest as it grew from a single dispensary to cultivation, manufacturing, and retail operations in several markets. Following the Harvest acquisition, White was appointed president of the company.
