Founded in 2014 by Peter Pietrangeli in Hollywood, Acme was created to bring transparency to the vape category at a time when cannabis regulations were much looser and lacked producer accountability. Pietrangeli’s pioneering efforts included experimentation extensively with various strain profiles and terpene blends before ultimately creating the recognized Acme favorites like Grapefruit OG and Grapewreck, which became a common sight on movie sets and red carpets in the hands of celebrities. Dedicated to offering a healthy vaping experience, Pietrangeli and the Acme team continue their work developing new blends at various levels of potency that will resonate with both casual users and experienced connoisseurs. | VAPEACME.COM

Started in 2014, Altai pays homage to a rich and ancient history of cannabis use spanning more than 2,500 years.

The brand is inspired by the discovery of a mummified ancient princess in the Altai mountains of Siberia. Her burial chamber revealed ceremonial bridled horses, treasures and a vessel of cannabis to ease her pain, which is thought to have treated her breast cancer. From the sourcing of local ingredients, including California’s famed Guittard Chocolate, to the delicate, hand-made production process, Altai seeks to align the use of cannabis in modern culture with a truly exceptional confection experience. | ALTAIEDIBLES.COM

Co-founders Scott Campbell and Clement Kwan started Beboe with inspiration from Scott’s past. As a child, his mother was diagnosed with cancer, and his grandmother, named Be Boe, would prepare special batches of cannabis brownies to help her with her cancer treatment. This would leave a lasting impression on Scott, and in appreciation of all she did to bring warmth and love into his house, Campbell and Kwan started Beboe to offer the cannabis consumer a more sophisticated experience. | BEBOE.COM

Gummies have emerged as a favorite category within cannabis edibles, and Canna Stripe was created specifically for the most discerning gummy enthusiasts. The Canna Stripe gummies are hand-crafted by the same talented team behind Altai edibles and offered in an assortment of delicious flavors. The Canna Stripe name is originally inspired by “candy stripers,� which is a historic term used to describe hospital volunteers in mid 20th century. These volunteers were traditionally women who wore red and white stripped pinafores, similar to an apron, while doing their volunteer work, and Canna Stripe aims to carry on this spirit of wellness and helping others through responsible cannabis use. | CANNASTRIPEGUMMY.COM

Keith McCarty Founder of WAYV.com

HOW WOULD YOU EXPLAIN WAYV TO SOMEONE IN ONE SENTENCE?

WHAT PROBLEMS IS WAYV SOLVING FOR CANNABIS RETAILERS?

WAYV is a one-stop e-commerce, compliance, logistics and fulfillment platform that enables small and large suppliers to expand their reach to California’s vast cannabis market.

Retailers win when their costs are competitive with the illicit market, and technology significantly reduces system cost. There is no better evidence of this than at the cash register.

Additionally, consistent supply, detailed data, and real-time updates enabled by WAYV are rapidly modernizing and scaling the cannabis retail experience.

BELOW: Signing up as a Verified Retailer is a quick and easy process on Wayv.com.

We deliver trust, growth, integrity, and intelligence.

62

WAYV technology offers reliable, on-time supply chain support with facile “Metrc” integration while keeping records organized and up-to-date. It has real time inventory intelligence and supply metrics with compliance built into every step. Best of all, it’s a one-stop platform that integrates all of these features and saves you on admin time, which means retailers can focus on their customers.

ABOVE: A wide selection of cannabis products from a ton of brands are available to browse and purchase, with more brands and products being added every week.

CAN YOU TALK ABOUT YOUR APPROACH TO INTEGRATING REGULATORY COMPLIANCE INTO WAYV?

Even before we founded WAYV, we began conversations with regulators, law enforcement, local government and legislators about the concept, value, and need for this type of platform.

We knew that compliance would be essential not only to our users, but as a bridge with state and local government. We’ve integrated compliance into the fabric of our code, our interface, and our culture. I think we’ve done a great job at that and will continue to do so.

WHAT DOES A TYPICAL ORDERING PROCESS ON WAYV LOOK LIKE FOR A RETAILER?

A designated employee can view a menu of their favorite products at the click of a button. Products are ordered using a cart and checkout process, with delivery options as soon as the next day and the ability to track your order’s progress up until it’s delivered.

63

IN CONVERSATION WITH KEITH MCCART Y FOUNDER OF WAY V.COM

a cart and an easy way to checkout and track inventory when the shopping is done. This saves hours of time, eliminates redundancy and reduces errors. All of the orders, manifests, and records are standardized, uploaded in real time, and produced in helpful instant reports. Managers no longer have to call the loading dock to see if the valuable inventory arrived; they get alerts about the status of the shipment and arrival from WAYV in real time.

Moving forward, they’ll get increasing predictability into costs, supply, quality, and customer trends, all helping to grow their businesses.

ABOVE: An example of a specific product page on Wayv.com

HOW ARE WAYV PAYMENTS HANDLED?

WAYV does not process payments. We are a technology platform. We are fortunate enough to work with a distribution partner, INDUS Distribution, that offers options for payment and net terms to help businesses maintain inventory and pay later.

HOW DOES WAYV MAKE THINGS EASIER FOR CANNABIS RETAILERS TO MANAGE THE ADMINISTRATIVE PAPERWORK ASSOCIATED WITH BUYING PRODUCT TO SELL?

DOES WAYV OFFER ANY FEATURES REGARDING TRACKING ORDERS ONCE THEY HAVE SHIPPED?

Administrative time is a killer for any growing business. Retailers spend time on paperwork, data entry, meeting with reps, dealing with individual supplier order forms, receiving individual deliveries, reconciling inventory, payment logistics, and the like.

WAYV is thick with features that track every order.

Cannabis inventory can be small and very valuable.

We built our business on knowing where all of it is at all times. Every order is tracked down to the smallest measurable amount using real time GPS

location. The records are updated and logged with every physical movement and every different transaction along the way.

WHERE IS WAYV AT TODAY IN TERMS OF BRINGING THE PLATFORM TO LIFE, AND HOW DO YOU EXPECT WAYV TO EVOLVE INTO 2019?

We have been live since August of 2018 and as with all great software, we develop features daily.

We are evolving features that bring brands and retailers closer together, optimizing the industry with our technology.

WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO CREATE WAYV?

I envisioned a platform that would ensure licensed product gets to licensed retailers as seamlessly as possible. Our brand starts with the name - like a wave when it hits the shore - it moves around every obstacle to deliver the tide. Our transparent platform is a cornerstone for an industry that needs to build trust with government, law enforcement, and the public. At the same time, WAYV gives previously unheard of access to a vast network of retailers for suppliers and vice versa, so we build an industry that is balanced with craft and industrial suppliers.

California’s cannabis industry today is miniscule compared to what it will be by mid-2019, and we will be ready for that explosive growth and be drivers of that growth, offering predictability, reliability and trust to suppliers, retailers and the distribution chain.

IF RETAILERS WANT TO START USING WAYV, WHAT DO THEY NEED TO DO?
