MCKEESPORT (KDKA) - Just days after launching a new product developed for Pittsburgh native Wiz Khalifa, a company has already announced layoffs. 

Trulieve, a medical marijuana company, has laid off a number of employees at its McKeesport growing facility. 

According to a report from the Pittsburgh Business Times, as many as three dozen people could be out of a job. 

Trulieve has a medical marijuana cultivation and processing facility at RIDC Park. 

The company said it's temporarily reducing production because of greater efficiencies throughout its supply chain and retail operations across the state.
