“Some of FLUENT’s most consistent success has been here in Jacksonville, with our first three dispensaries having the highest patient retention rates across the state,” said FLUENT Director of Sales Victor Bindi. “Now, with our fourth store on the westside of Jax, our roots in this city are stronger than ever. We are excited to keep growing our relationship with the Jacksonville community by delivering a convenient retail experience, high quality products, and well-paying jobs.”
