BANGOR, Mich. — Michigan cannabis processor Ground Control Michigan, doing business as GCM Waypoint, has agreed to permanently surrender its state processor license after the Cannabis Regulatory Agency (CRA) alleged the company illegally transported marijuana products across state lines and committed numerous inventory and compliance violations.
The case centers on allegations that marijuana products produced and tracked under Michigan’s regulated cannabis system were discovered inside a licensed marijuana facility in Massachusetts, triggering a multi-state regulatory investigation. The allegations remain unproven, and the company resolved one enforcement action through a consent order without admitting wrongdoing.
According to a formal complaint filed by the CRA on June 4, Massachusetts cannabis regulators notified Michigan officials after discovering multiple Michigan-tagged marijuana products at a licensed marijuana producer’s facility. Investigators traced the products to GCM Waypoint’s adult-use processor license in Bangor. The products included gummies, vape cartridges, disposable vape products and infused pre-rolls sold under the Midwest Extracts, OnlyZips and King’s Choice brands.
CRA: Employee Initially Denied Transporting Products
The complaint alleges GCM Waypoint’s sales manager initially told investigators the marijuana products had been picked up in Michigan by an employee from the Massachusetts facility.
