Our Story
Rooted in Community, Growing Equity
CLOVEST is more than a dispensary network—we're a movement for economic justice, community empowerment, and equitable access in the cannabis industry.
Our Mission & Vision
CLOVEST was founded with a clear purpose: to create pathways for generational wealth in communities disproportionately harmed by cannabis prohibition while providing premium products and exceptional service.
We believe cannabis should be a tool for opportunity, not exclusion. Through our network of dispensaries across Los Angeles, we're demonstrating how Black-owned businesses can thrive while lifting up the communities they serve.
Our Mission
- Create economic opportunities for Black entrepreneurs in the cannabis industry
- Provide safe, high-quality cannabis products with exceptional service
- Advocate for policy changes that benefit underrepresented entrepreneurs
- Reinvest in South LA communities through education, expungement, and economic programs
Our Vision
- A cannabis industry where Black ownership and leadership is proportionally represented
- Communities harmed by prohibition benefiting from cannabis legalization
- Generational wealth creation through cannabis entrepreneurship
- A model for how social equity can succeed in practice, not just in theory
