Association of New York Cannabis Processors

The voice of New York's cannabis processors.

Processors make the products on every dispensary shelf in the state. ANYCP makes sure they are heard in Albany, by regulators, and across the industry.

You are not alone

Running a New York processing licence can be isolating. ANYCP is your ally and your voice, and we are stronger together.

Where it matters

In Albany, in processing facilities and wherever our members need us. We show up and make the case for processors.

Your voice, when it matters

Pain points into change

From unanswered questions to regulatory roadblocks, your problems set our agenda. We take them to the people who can fix them.

What we're working on

Our priorities

  1. A seat at the table

    Processors make the products on every dispensary shelf, yet they are rarely in the room when rules are written. We press for processor representation in Office of Cannabis Management rulemaking, stakeholder meetings and public comment.

  2. Rules that can be followed

    Licensees need clear, published standards and timely answers. We push for written compliance and inspection criteria, predictable timelines and a regulator that responds.

  3. Fair access to shelves

    Processors and the cultivators who supply them need a reliable route to retail. We back legislation and policy that open more shelves to New York-made products and keep revenue flowing to social equity dispensaries.

All priorities

On the record

Testifying in Albany

ANYCP speaks for processors before the Legislature every budget season.

  1. Joint Legislative Budget Hearing on Economic Development

    ANYCP's second year before the budget committees: the cost of track-and-trace for supply-side licensees, unchecked inversion of out-of-state cannabis, and a legislative fix that keeps licensees operating and consumers safe.
