Unlocking the Potential of Independent Cannabis Brands

“After my toy startup was acquired, I visited a dispensary to buy legal cannabis for the first time. When they handed me my baggie I wondered, why isn’t this in more exciting packaging? I started asking questions and learned about overwhelming compliance and sourcing challenges. That was the spark that led to Inkbrite.”
