Colorado Marijuana Enforcement Division

The Colorado Marijuana Enforcement Division (MED) is a government agency responsible for regulating and overseeing the state's marijuana industry. It ensures that licensed growers, sellers, and testers comply with state laws, maintain safety standards, and operate transparently. The MED manages licensing, conducts inspections, enforces regulations, and monitors inventory and sales to prevent illegal activities. Its goal is to promote responsible industry practices, public safety, and legal access to marijuana, while preventing diversion to the black market. Essentially, the MED functions as Colorado’s regulatory authority for legal cannabis commerce.
