Down to Earth Canna
New York
We went ALL in and contracted for the Diamond Level License Application Consulting was nothing short of phenomenal! We were among the first to win an adult use retail dispensary license in New York. Cann Strategy didn't just consult; they became our indispensable allies – they were a game changer.
Founder
Amalia R.
Kechwa LLC
Illinois
I was VERY happy to have been referred to Cann strategy by our legal team. We only had 10 days to fix our original application (we did on our own) or else we were done for. The Cann Strategy team fixed the whole application in time and we WON! We got a Chicago dispensary license!
CEO
Florence J.
Tree of Life
Nevada
The team wrote our dispensary license applications and helped all of our ownership team through every step of the process. There were only 60 licenses available in the state. We would have felt lucky just getting one dispensary license and we won THREE of them, in the most popular jurisdictions.
CEO
Keith C.
Deep Roots Harvest
Nevada
The team fully prepared us to launch our first dispensary, everything from our state compliant SOPs, to doing the state inspection with us for approval, and setting up the store and preparing the team. We worked with them to get our second set of vertical licenses, and we have been successful ever since.
Founding Member

We encourage everyone to work with the Cann Strategy team and we look forward to continued success. We entrusted them to write SOPs for our entire vertical application and became one of the first licensees in Mississippi.
Co-Founder
Kouanin V.
Green Life Productions
Nevada
We've owned a successful cultivation for years and worked with Cann Strategy for our first social consumption lounge license. They wrote every business plan and SOP to the absolute T and now we're proudly one of the VERY FIRST 20 lounge license holders in the entire state!
