Cannabis Delivery in Grand Rapids: Eaze Expands Its Footprint
Michigan’s flourishing cannabis market has gained a new player, as Eaze, the nation’s largest marijuana delivery platform, launches its recreational services in Grand Rapids. This strategic move comes on the heels of the company’s recent debut in Ann Arbor, solidifying its commitment to bringing unparalleled convenience, selection, and expertise to Michigan’s thriving adult-use scene.
A Seamless Cannabis Shopping Experience
At the heart of Eaze’s offering lies a user-friendly online marketplace and mobile app, designed to streamline the cannabis shopping experience. Customers can effortlessly browse an extensive menu featuring a diverse array of locally crafted and nationally renowned products, all from the comfort of their homes.
Partnering with Michigan’s Cannabis Pioneers
To ensure a robust product assortment, Eaze has forged strategic partnerships with leading Michigan licensees. In Grand Rapids, the company has joined forces with Fluresh, a modern cannabis brand dedicated to crafting premium offerings tailored to diverse consumer preferences.
Fluresh: Redefining the Cannabis Experience
“At Fluresh, we are leading the way for cannabis innovation and elevating the industry by redesigning the cannabis experience to be more approachable and customizable for not only new consumers, but experienced consumers as well,” says Tom Benson, CEO of Fluresh. “Eaze, through its leading software platform and marketplace, strives to also enhance this consumer experience, and we are excited to partner with them.”
A Diverse Product Portfolio
Eaze’s Grand Rapids menu boasts an impressive lineup of beloved local brands, including Apothecare, Church Cannabis Company, Clout King, Common Citizen, Exclusive, Fluresh, Gud Nuff, Hazy Farms, High Life Farms, Kaneh Company, LivWell, Mitten Extracts, MKX Oil Co, Pleasantrees, RedBud Roots, Terpene Tank, and Viola. These offerings are complemented by popular multi-state brands already available on Eaze’s California platform, such as Kiva Confections, Dixie Brands, and Mary’s Medicinals, ensuring a comprehensive selection for every cannabis enthusiast.
Expanding Access to Trusted Brands
“BellRock is proud to build upon its partnership with Eaze and help replicate the proven success of marrying best-in-class delivery services and brands,” said Andrew Schweibold, Executive Chairman of BellRock Brands, parent company of Mary’s Medicinals and Dixie Brands. “Since entering Michigan’s Medical market in October 2018, our portfolio has expanded to include edibles, tinctures, and topicals. Today, on Eaze’s platform, Michiganders now have broader access to our diverse set of brands and products.”
Unparalleled Convenience and Accessibility
One of Eaze’s standout features is its commitment to delivering orders swiftly and discreetly to customers’ doorsteps. With extended operating hours and a dedicated team of drivers, the platform ensures that cannabis enthusiasts can access their preferred products with unmatched convenience.
Competitive Pricing and Exclusive Deals
In addition to its user-friendly interface and extensive product selection, Eaze aims to provide customers with unbeatable value. All new users can enjoy $30 off their first two orders, while existing customers can take advantage of tiered discounts, with savings ranging from 15% to 25% on orders exceeding specific thresholds.
Driving Economic Growth and Job Creation
Eaze’s expansion into Grand Rapids is expected to create at least 250 new job opportunities across the state, as the company actively recruits drivers to meet the growing demand. Prospective candidates can explore competitive hourly pay, mileage reimbursements, healthcare benefits, and paid time off for full-time roles.
Championing Social Equity and Diversity
Beyond its core business operations, Eaze has established itself as a trailblazer in promoting social justice and diversity within the cannabis industry. The company’s award-winning Momentum business accelerator supports underrepresented founders, while its Social Equity Menu has facilitated over $6.5 million in sales for brands owned by social equity licensees. Additionally, the EazeCompassion program provides free cannabis to low-income patients, exemplifying the company’s commitment to accessibility and inclusivity.
Nurturing Local Talent
Tre Hobbs, founder of Detroit’s Neighborhood Essentials brand, is a member of Momentum’s class of 2021, showcasing Eaze’s dedication to nurturing local talent and fostering a more equitable industry landscape.
Giving Back to the Community
Eaze’s philanthropic efforts extend beyond its internal initiatives. In July, the company collaborated with Primitiv co-founders and retired NFL stars Calvin Johnson Jr. and Rob Sims, along with national edibles brands Kiva and Mary’s Medicinals, to donate $25,000 to the Detroit Homegrown Fund, further solidifying its commitment to supporting local communities.
A Promising Future in Michigan
With its Grand Rapids launch, Eaze has set the stage for continued growth within Michigan’s adult-use market. The company anticipates expanding its delivery services to Detroit in the coming weeks, further solidifying its position as a leading provider of convenient, high-quality cannabis products across the state.
As the cannabis industry continues to evolve, Eaze’s innovative approach, coupled with its commitment to social responsibility and customer satisfaction, positions it as a driving force in shaping the future of the industry in Michigan and beyond.
