Verdant Capital Partners, a cannabis-focused retail operator and investment company, has acquired 15 Native Roots retail dispensaries in Colorado following receipt of all required regulatory approvals. Founded in 2009, Native Roots has built one of Colorado’s most recognized cannabis retail brands through its commitment to quality products, knowledgeable team members, and exceptional customer service. “Today’s closing marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for both Verdant and Native Roots,” said Julian Michalowski, chief executive officer of Verdant Capital Partners. “Helping build Native Roots has been one of the great privileges of my career,” said Josh Ginsberg, principal of Verdant Capital Partners and Co-Founder of Native Roots. To everyone who helped build Native Roots over the last 17 years—our employees, customers, vendors, and partners- thank you.
