The Pittsburgh Business Times reports as many as three dozen people could be out of a job.

The company says it is reducing production temporarily because of greater efficiencies in its supply chain and retail operations across the state.

Trulieve’s website says they are currently out of “Khalifa Kush” but are working to restock.

The company has local locations in Squirrel Hills, White Hall, Zelienople, Pittsburgh’s North Shore and Cranberry Township
