Robert Louis Johnson, the co-founder of BET and the first black American billionaire, once said, “All business is personal.”

We couldn’t agree more.

For us, TICAL isn’t just about selling weed. It’s personal.

How could it not be?

The prohibition of cannabis has been one of the greatest violations of human rights the world has ever seen. It spawned the war on drugs, which was, and still is, a war on poor people and people of color.

So when we launched TICAL, we knew from day one that we would only work with growers and dispensaries who understood our vision: Taking into consideration all lives!

This is why we’ve been so particular about those we do business with. Again, it’s personal.

Make no mistake: you’ll never find TICAL in a dispensary that doesn’t live up to our expectations when it comes to respecting the plant, the people, and the culture.

Sure, this may mean that it takes a little longer for us to find the right partnerships, but integrity is a keystone of our business, and we expect the same of any company we work with. Which is why we’re very excited to announce our latest partnership with LivWell.

A Higher Calling

LivWell operates 21 retail stores, giving us an opportunity to share more of our high-end herb with the good people of Colorado. But that’s not the main reason we’ve partnered with LivWell.

We partnered with LivWell because the company is dedicated to supporting and investing in the communities where it operates. The way business should be done.

From neighborhood clean-ups to community events, LivWell is always present and contributing to the greater good of the community. It also puts its money where it’s mouth is.

LivWell Cares has made $2.5 million in donations (both cash and in-kind):
