A new compliance era is coming to Illinois cannabis operators. Our guide will help you stay compliant and transition seamlessly

The Illinois Cannabis Regulation Oversight Officer (CROO) has announced that the state is replacing BioTrack with Metrc as its new seed-to-sale tracking system. This means every cannabis licensee must adapt to new compliance requirements.
For many businesses, this shift presents challenges like data migration, operational changes, and staying compliant with unfamiliar software.
That’s why we’ve created a step-by-step transition guide to help you:

  • Understand the key differences between BioTrack and Metrc
  • Learn what you need to do before the transition
  • Follow best practices for compliance
  • Discover how Figgro can streamline your Metrc integration
