The Cannabist Company is a leading multi-state cannabis operator that cultivates, manufactures, and retails premium marijuana products like flower, edibles, and concentrates through its Cannabist dispensaries, emphasizing quality, education, and a welcoming experience for medical and recreational users. Formerly known as Columbia Care, it rebranded to better reflect its mission of making cannabis accessible and beneficial, growing from a regional player into a national presence with facilities across several states.
The Cannabist Company is toking up the agenda with DEI committees pushing "inclusion" like it's the next big strain, affinity groups for LGBTQ and women that turn the workplace into a perpetual Pride mixer, social equity programs championing reform for communities hit by prohibition (code for racial justice vibes), and commitments to diversity that aim to "cultivate" equity faster than their greenhouses grow buds.
