Cannalean LLC

6 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 9, ISSUE 6 growing up we had every type of food you could think of in the house. I use my actually study of chemistry to create flavors and make sure they’re the right tartness and sweetness, and the right PH level – there’s a lot of science involved but, once you get it correct, the syrup flavors are quite amazing. There is no food coloring, everything is natural ingredients.” BVM: Who makes a good candidate for a franchisee? Johnson: “Anybody who either already has an operating cannabis company, or wants to launch one and sell cannabis but doesn’t have a product that they know how to create. Especially when it comes to a cannabis beverage item. So I have a product you can create. When it comes to syrup production, they wouldn’t even see weed combustible flower, it would just be concentrates that they would turn into a beverage. So anyone who really wants to get into the cannabis market and can get a license in their state is a great candidate for a Cannalean franchise.” BVM: What else would you like people to know about Cannalean? Johnson: “The blackberry sangria is a specific flavor that’s meant for wine. I fact, a winery would be great for Cannalean products because you can bottle this or you can serve it as is. So for any wine company that wants to stand out and be different, it is totally unique. “As you can tell, this is everything to me. I started this company from nothing and put my life into it and I care about it that much. So I truly get excited talking about the possibilities!” Cottrell: “I am very proud that Cannalean is an African-American owned cannabis company. We are one of three African-American owned cannabis brands currently being sold in Nevada. As African-American business owners in cannabis, we had issues of getting our products in certain dispensaries due to negative perceived biases. Nevertheless, that did not deter us. We are giving hope to future cannabis African- American entrepreneurs hope that they can get their product into dispensaries. I believe that if we cannot get our product into the dispensaries as African-Americans, what hope does the next generation have to get their product on the shelf?” CANNALEAN LLC Add to any beverage or mix in with your favorite food dish. visit www.cannaleansyrup.com for delicious recipes
