Sustainable Bamboo Exit Packaging for Cannabis Dispensaries

Elevated Global Supply (EGS), a multi-national consumer packaging design and fulfillment company specializing in the emerging cannabis industry, has supplied a sustainable, high design, and branded exit and delivery packaging solution to WholesomeCo Dispensary in Salt Lake City, Utah, to meet the emerging company’s eco-friendly operating imperatives. EGS partnered with Salt Lake City-based Ernest Packaging for distribution and fulfillment.

“We prioritize sustainability where possible in our daily operations in our effort to meet patients' needs," said Chris Jeffrey, CEO of WholesomeCo. “This new packaging from Elevated truly elevates our commitment in practice, replacing our previous packaging with an even eco-friendlier solution.”

WholesomeCo was drawn to this earth-friendly packaging solution because it degrades 90% faster than polymers and most other traditional packaging materials, while being sourced from a fully renewable resource with an application that takes up substantially less landfill space than the cardboard boxes the dispensary previously used for its deliveries and exit bags, all at a substantially lower cost per unit.

“Our global fulfillment team is constantly identifying new ways to bring value to our cannabis packaging clients by innovating eco-friendly products that provide sustainability at an enhanced quality and superior value,” said Jenifer Nelson, Regional Sales Manager for Elevated Global Supply. “Our bamboo-based shop bags for WholesomeCo are a perfect example of how a client asked, we listened, and then delivered a solution with the desired impact, on budget and on time.”

Now available for other custom applications, EGS has developed its innovative bamboo-sourced packaging material to provide a sustainable, earth conscious alternative for licensed cannabis businesses requiring a sealable exit, delivery, or even mailer solution for regulatory compliance. When developed for exit and delivery uses, EGS has innovated its solution by incorporating an easy carry handle to the design.
