Initially, he outlines the current landscape of supply chains in the US cannabis industry and the issues that arise from conflicts between laws at the federal and state levels (e.g., lack of EPA oversight of pesticide use). Greenwell then describes the nuances of specific cannabis product types (e.g., distillate and crude oils) and how the Spotlite360 technologies can provide value both for stakeholders in the cannabis supply chain as well as the end consumer. Early in the video, Greenwell also shows examples of unique item-level tracking technologies that can be used with Spotlite360 such as RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tags. Greenwell commented: “In the past few years, cannabis has become an increasingly sophisticated market segment from a supply chain perspective. Macro-level demand has put cannabis existing cannabis supply chain solutions to the test, especially in markets that allow both recreational and medical use. I encourage everyone involved in the cannabis, logistics, or blockchain technology sectors to watch our latest video presentation to see how powerful tracing and tracking technologies combined with blockchain to enable supply chain partner collaboration are necessary to respond to the demands for visibility and compliance that exist in the Cannabis industry.” Else Nutrition Holdings Inc.
