Unlike traditional retail, cannabis operators are required to track all plants and products from seed to sale. For operators that are vertically integrated, visibility across the full supply chain, including cultivation, manufacturing, testing, distribution, and retail is essential to your business.
But there are many complexities involved in cannabis supply chain management. And if you’re using a homegrown solution, you need to be asking yourself how that will scale with your business and how your solution will integrate with other aspects of the supply chain.
It all starts with the plant. As a cultivator, you’re at the very beginning of the supply chain. Downstream operations rely on strong cultivation partners to deliver quality products that pass state-required lab tests.
With the right cannatech partner you can benefit from:
- Better team and task management to streamline operations
- Climate and root zone monitoring for increased consistency
- Grow data and analytics to boost efficiency and quality
- Seamless compliance reporting with your state’s track-and-trace system
- Automated tag scanning, weighing, and reporting
- Integrations with other tools across the supply chain
Whether you’re a cultivator, manufacturer, or distributor, finding the right cannatech partner to help you navigate the complexities of the cannabis supply chain is a no-brainer. Visibility into the supply chain becomes even more important as you scale your operation or if you anticipate selling your business in the future.
