The Greene Fox Approach
Two lanes. One road to wellness.
Operating in both the medical and adult use markets
Today, individuals throughout the country access the same cannabis product through two separate points of entry, between the medical and adult use markets. Both lanes offer an opportunity to access quality cannabis that can help meet our various health and wellness needs. The key difference between medical and adult use cannabis is taxation, as well as existing market sizes.
It’s up to the cultivators, processors, and dispensaries to ensure that their patients have access to the right products with proper consultation.
We’ve established operations on both coasts, diversifying our efforts to fulfill a singular long-term vision. With cultivation and product distribution in the California adult use market, we can test brands against the largest group of consumers, and potential consumers, in the United States. In Maryland, we’re opening the doors to our medical dispensary, Kip, to tap into a quickly budding and newly legalized market, Our processing facility allows us to create quality product amidst a young and developing state industry. We’ve positioned ourselves to set new medical precedents in a market that’s close proximity to Congress.

Obstacles & Opportunity
The cannabis industry in the United States is booming, yet a majority of eligible users are not current consumers. As public perception and perceived stigma around cannabis continues to improve, we’ll see a rush of new customers looking to safely and responsibly experience cannabis.
Due to federal restrictions, state-run programing and regulations, the existing market is fragmented and poorly realized. An overwhelming number of cannabis businesses are run by operators who lack the critical cannabis and/or retail knowledge needed to grow brands built for longevity, as well as bring legitimacy to this new industry.
With experience owning and operating cannabis businesses all along the supply chain (cultivating, processing, and dispensing), coupled with significant experience in retail and food service, finance, real estate, branding and marketing, Greene Fox is well positioned to implement a vision of building large-scale, customer-centric cannabis operations around the US.
