“Entering a new business is unlike any other challenge that a team can undertake; the list of questions and needs is ever changing, and the demand for trusted, competent, and genuine advisors is the key to long-term success. Anderson Porter Design has been that comprehensive advisor for our team, as we maneuvered our way through all steps of planning and construction of a new cannabis manufacturing facility. Adam, Brian, and the entire APD staff were always available to answer our questions, add counsel to our ideas, and most importantly problem solve in an expeditious manner, no item was too broad or too minute for their expert attention.

We hope to be able to bring additional cannabis facilities to life in the future, and will absolutely choose Anderson Porter Design when that time comes.”

“Here is a prime example. We were doing a project and working with an architect who produced 3 different floor plans, none of which met code, before hiring Brian. Brian was able to provide us with a compliant floor plan that also optimized the floor plan for the operation, saving the client money, time, and frustration.”
