So is this not for a cannabis dispensary?
That's definitely part of my blind spot here. I don't know of anywhere that uses a green cross for something other than a dispensary, but I also don't know a lot of things , sooo¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The green cross is the universal symbol for pharmacies in Southern Europe. Admittedly I haven't checked if any of them do have cannabis, but I'd recommend not asking pharmacists whether they got it. As others mentioned, the red cross wouldn't be used as that would be a Geneva conventions violation.
Indeed, the green cross is the symbol for pharmacies here in Spain and in most places I've been (including a bit of northern europe).
None of them sell cannabis. If legal to sell, it needs to be sold in separate stores, which usually don't have flashing signs. Those stores can't use the green cross as a symbol.
