Edibles have enjoyed a long run as one of the most reliable growth sectors in both medical and recreational cannabis markets, and the expansion of cannabis-infused beverages has been an exciting development within it. Keef Brands, led by CEO Travis Tharp, has been on the cutting edge of this growth, having established distribution throughout some of the largest domestic markets as well in several Canadian provinces. On July 27th, Travis will join host Jason Klein to share the challenges he has faced and lessons he has learned in building one of the most widely recognized beverage brands in a fractured cannabis marketplace while maintaining consistency and spurring innovation to satisfy customer demands.
