Greenbank Ventures is a cannabis development consultant and advisor, focused on bringing high-quality, low cost cannabis to the recreational and medical marijuana markets. With expertise across the board Greenbank supports licensees at the production level of the value chain for cannabis and cannabis products.
Committed To Quality Cannabis
The cannabis market is currently undersupplied for the necessary level of high-quality/low-cost organically grown cannabis flower and cannabis extraction material as demanded by processors and retailers. Although the retail market has continued to grow, licensees are concerned about optimizing the supply chain as many cannabis processors have faced challenges in obtaining higher quality, full spectrum cannabis that is consistent across all cultivated plants.
At Greenbank Ventures, we strive to bridge the gap of lacking high-quality, full spectrum cannabis. We aim to direct the market by assisting licensees in determining the best strains for different uses from vaping to pre-rolls and bud. Our knowledge of optimal growing techniques and scalable low production costs allow us to advise licensees on how to become a leading low cost producer of high quality marijuana.
