Premier Brian Gallant announced $4 million this morning, from Opportunities New Brunswick and the Regional Development Corporation.
Gallant says this facility will help create over 200 jobs in northern New Brunswick.
Zenabis would be the second major marijuana producer in the province.
Funding will be used to build the facility, and it will then have to apply for a license to produce marijuana.
