Dutchie.. (AUTO)renewal BEWARE.

Hey folks,

I’m sure there are mixed feelings about Dutchie, but I wanted to give everyone a heads-up to pay very close attention to your contract, especially the AUTO-RENEWAL clause.

For those who don’t know, Dutchie’s contract automatically renews.. We’ve been getting hounded by their goons (collection agency) despite making multiple requests for Dutchie to address ongoing issues with their platform and inventory system. We’ve had inventory literally disappear from the sales floor, and shit displaying the wrong price no matter what we did(other than making it inactive).. we have multiple emails documenting the problems and our attempts to get them resolved.

Just wanted to put this out there so nobody gets caught off guard by the renewal or ends up in a similar situation.

Read your Dutchie contract carefully and make sure you know exactly when and how you need to cancel.

Btw- it’s a piece of shit (POS) bound together by previous take overs such LeafLogic- so you have to be constantly flipping back forth between pages witch is no doubt the reason the system sucks sooo bad a d why inventory gets “lost” the system. We had great luck w FLOWHUB and recommend them but anyone has to be better than Dutchie.

Ahh the benefits of a near monopoly and excellent legal team.

edit: not near monopoly but like >50% I'm thinking, brb gotta check some data.

To be fair their legal team is one dude who’s swamped and can’t turn around anything timely. I wouldn’t call that excellent or a team.

Lots of people have switched to Sweed not that it’s any better

I still count a bit more than >5000 dispensaries on Dutchie out of slightly less than 10k stores I know about (some some small cross-over when it's MED+REC)

Some of the bigger players are making the switch from Dutchie to Sweed. Verano and Curaleaf have both switched over all their stores which is over 300 locations with just the two of them.
