Listen Later

Jonathan Ballard, Vice President of Market Development at Leafy Pack, shared insights on the company's cutting-edge automated bagging systems, including the high-speed Roto bagger, eco bagger, and multi-head scale. He also introduced the Apollo Pre-Roll machine, a compact system that efficiently weighs and pre-rolls products, impressing attendees with its space-saving design.

Tackling Cannabis Industry Challenges with High Production Machinery

Jonathan highlighted Leafy Pack's high production machine capabilities, capable of packaging 30 to 50 bags per minute and 10 to 20 bags per minute for eco bags. He emphasized the importance of designing equipment that accommodates the unique constraints of the cannabis industry, such as space limitations and the need for customization to support business expansion.

Lease-to-Own Packaging Equipment Program

Leafy Pack has partnered with Kind Pack to offer a lease-to-own program for packaging equipment, reducing financial barriers for businesses. Jonathan explained the audit process for transitioning out of the lease, drawing on his background in early lending and equipment financing to address industry challenges like finding equity and navigating strict debtor guidelines.

Sustainable Packaging with the Pack Model

Jonathan introduced the 'pack model,' a sustainable solution that integrates packaging manufacture from resin to finished product. This model, developed with a local group, aims to provide fully compatible equipment and packaging through a lease-to-own program tailored to customer budgets. The service model ensures both equipment and packaging meet customer needs efficiently.

Benefits of Machinery Investment for Cannabis Companies

Investing in machinery can yield significant cost savings by reducing labor expenses and bundling packaging and equipment costs. Leasing options make it affordable for small and large cannabis companies to upgrade their packaging equipment without upfront investment, offering a potential boost in throughput and a sustainable business model.

Comprehensive Support and Maintenance from Leafy Pack

Leafy Pack offers various service and maintenance programs, including a 1-year warranty and extended 3-year warranties with different support tiers. With new facilities across the US, including upcoming locations in Las Vegas and Tampa, and a comprehensive video series, the 'Anti Hand Packing Club', Leafy Pack ensures customers receive robust support. Machinery prices range from $25,000 to $125,000, providing scalable options for boosting throughput and creating sustainable business models.
