Complexity is our playing field. Global growth is our goal.Our job is the part of international cannabis trade that most people find too hard: the regulation, the documentation and the relationships.
Two sides of one trade.
Every export has a producer who needs a reliable buyer and an importer who needs supply they can qualify. We sit between them and make the transaction work for both.

Leadership.

He went on to co-found The Flowr Corporation as CEO and President, building a premium cultivation campus in Kelowna, then served as COO of Akanda Corp. and Managing Director of Holigen's EU-GMP certified facility in Portugal.
