FLOWER CO

5600 West End Road, Suite H2, Arcata, California, 95521, United States

Overview

Flower Co operates a membership weed-delivery platform that partners with growers to create house brands, encourages pre-orders, and offers members discounts of up to 40%. Memberships cost $119 annually and include faster delivery, access to private events and concert series, and deeper per-ounce pricing (examples: Forbidden Fruit $192 non-member / $142 member; House Sativa $63/oz with membership). The company has launched two-day delivery in Sacramento and is operating in a few California markets while scaling cautiously. CEO Ted Lichtenberger frames the opportunity as converting black‑market customers to the regulated market, noting the regulated market is roughly one-quarter the size of the unregulated market. Flower Co graduated from Y Combinator’s latest class and is positioning itself for long-term growth as regulation evolves.
