Evergreen Commerce Solutions works alongside licensed operators across the country, from cultivation and processing through retail operations to the marketing that fills the shelves. Full-service or project-based, for a first location or a turnaround.
Each service stands on its own. Together, they let an operator move from plan to opening day or from breakdown to turnaround without stitching together outside vendors.

Facility design, environmental systems, and cultivation SOPs.
Processing, quality control, and compliant, consistent output.
License, open, run, and eventually sell: the full lifecycle.
Cultivation, processing, and retail, coordinated as one company.
Most operators hire five vendors to cover what should be one relationship, seed to sale.
You choose how much of the work to hand off, and you tell us where your operation stands today. We build the engagement around your answers.
We take on the whole build (cultivation, retail operations, and marketing), coordinated under one plan and one point of contact.
Bring in Evergreen for exactly what you need, whether that's a licensing push, a rebrand, or a broken SOP, and nothing else.
New license, new build, new brand. We sequence the work from the ground up, in the order a new operator actually needs it.
Struggling compliance, thin margins, a brand that isn't landing. We diagnose what's actually wrong before we touch anything.
Cannabis regulation is written state by state, and sometimes county by county. We keep a live view of licensing, packaging, and advertising rules in every market we serve, so a brand and an operation can travel with the operator instead of being rebuilt each time.
Every engagement starts with the specific rules of the market in question, not a national template retrofitted to fit.

Get in touchCannabis is regulated state by state, and what we can do for an operator depends on where they are. Choose a state to see the services we provide there and what makes that market different.
State-licensed medical marijuana moved to Schedule III effective April 23, 2026, which triggered a DEA registration process for medical operators. The federal hemp redefinition enacted in November 2025 takes effect November 2026, closing the intoxicating-hemp loophole.
In most mature markets the licensing opportunity is acquisition, not new applications: license counts are capped or closed, so clients buy their way in. Only a handful of states have live or near-term application windows as of late September 2026: Rhode Island (retail, due Nov 23, 2026), Nebraska (manufacturer, due Dec 14, 2026), Missouri (microbusiness), and Virginia (applications expected around Feb 1, 2027).
Taking a client through a state application round: entity setup, real estate, SOPs, security plans, social equity or local approvals.
Sourcing a license for sale, diligence, and regulator approval of the ownership transfer.
State licenses are available, but the gate is a city or county: zoning, host agreements, local permits.
Getting newly awarded or conditional licensees sited, built, staffed, and open before their deadlines lapse.
Turnarounds, SOPs, audits, and inspection readiness for existing licensees. This exists in every legal state.
For medical-only states: monitoring, entity prep, and real estate ahead of a program change. Not offered where there is no legal program or only a low-THC one.
