Matawan's Newest Cannabis Dispensary Has Grand Opening Saturday

MATAWAN, NJ — Matawan's newest cannabis dispensary will have their official grand opening Saturday.

Vigor Dispensary (https://vigordispensary.com/), located in the former music school at 1082 Rt. 34 in Matawan, will have a grand opening Saturday where they will have a glass blower, food vendors, live music and raffles for Labubu dolls and a Nintendo Switch 2.

Vigor is owned by husband-wife team Alan and Susan Ao; other partners in Vigor are Nick and Sara Ambrosino, who live in Aberdeen.

Alan Ao is also currently vice president of the Matawan-Aberdeen Chamber of Commerce.

"We are a pharmacist-led facility that will be focused on the cross-section of health, community and cannabis," Ao said previously.

Canna Bar was the first licensed marijuana dispensary to open in Matawan, at 58 Main Street, and they just opened in April. The opening of Canna Bar was followed by Scarlet Reserve, a CBD/smoke shop (not a licensed dispensary) also on Rt. 34 (782 Rt. 34) and within walking distance from Vigor.

Nearby, there's Premo Cannabis, which opened last year on Front Street in Keyport.
