We don’t take it for granted that Missouri cannabis consumers continue to choose Sunrise dispensary. And that trust is something we work to earn every single day. We’re proud to be one of the most recognized dispensaries in the state, and even prouder that the recognition comes directly from the people we serve every day in Kansas City and St. Louis.
Recognized for Excellence: Recent Awards and Nominations
Earlier this year, Sunrise took home three awards at the Greenway Magazine Best of the Industry 2026 ceremony in Kansas City, voted on by more than 200,000 readers across Missouri. Sunrise was named Best Dispensary in Missouri, reflecting our team’s commitment to retail excellence, customer experience, and community presence. Nick Davis from Sunrise was recognized as Best Budtender, and Joe Cavaluzzi took home Best Retail Management Professional.
And that’s just the beginning. Sunrise is also currently nominated for recognition through Greenway Magazine’s ongoing program, The Pitch KC, and the Kansas City Star’s Best Of. We’re grateful to be in the running and humbled by the continued support from our community.
Great People Make a Great Dispensary ExperienceÂ
The short answer to what sets us apart is simple: our people. An award-winning dispensary doesn’t happen without a team that genuinely cares about every customer who walks through the door.
Whether you’re visiting us in Kansas City or St. Louis, you’ll find budtenders who take the time to understand what you’re looking for and help you find exactly the right product. That’s what being a trusted, community-focused, best dispensary in MO actually looks like in practice and in everyday life.
