National Holistic Healing Center

What National Holistic Healing Center does

National Holistic Healing Center (NHHC) is a privately held medical cannabis dispensary headquartered in Washington, DC, founded in 2015 and led by CEO Chanda Macias. The company operates a state-licensed dispensary serving qualified medical cannabis patients, providing cannabis-based products in a clinical-style environment rather than a traditional retail storefront. NHHC's operational emphasis is on patient privacy, product consistency, clinical oversight, and pharmacist-supported dispensing — positioning the business as a healthcare-aligned dispensary rather than a general cannabis retailer.

The company is in the midst of a strategic repositioning tied to the U.S. Justice Department's reclassification of state-licensed medical marijuana from Schedule 1 to Schedule 3. CEO Chanda Macias is publicly advising the medical cannabis industry on the regulatory transition, and NHHC is upgrading its facility infrastructure, recordkeeping, pharmacist training, and compliance systems to align with FDA good manufacturing and distribution practices. Revenue is generated through direct patient transactions (transaction-fee model) with no disclosed pricing, subscription, or enterprise contracting.

The underlying technology stack, digital channels, and proprietary systems are not disclosed in the available sources. NHHC does not disclose headcount, partnerships, awards, patents, certifications, or detailed product catalogs, and no parent company, subsidiaries, or institutional investors are identified. The company's strategic posture is concentrated on regulatory preparedness as the primary lever for differentiation rather than on technology, scale, or product breadth.
