Marketing/Packaging/Supply Chain Internship with expanding cannabis brand

ABOUT US:

Here at DH Investments, LLC (DBA Fleur D’Elite) our backgrounds are as varied as our personalities, but the one trait we all have in common is our absolute passion for Cannabis and our vision to share it with our California family, through our state licensed cultivation and distribution arms of our business. The members of our team have colorful histories but through our shared obsession for cannabis and our relentless drive to grow amazing flowers, we have forged our own family and our own history. Everyone on our team brings their own unique set of professional strengths and attributes to the table. Although our skill sets vary, we all share the common belief that as cannabis connoisseurs, it is our mission and duty to always strive to produce the highest quality cannabis products on earth, for both our customers and ourselves, bar none!

Our conviction to excel fuels our pursuit to expand our knowledge and perfect our methods, so that the products we ultimately provide our customers exceed all expectation. This ethos to produce only the finest cannabis concentrates is manifested through our refusal to settle to industry standards. By infusing the cleanest products of the highest purity with an unrivaled selection of natural terpene flavors, we calibrate our process to higher metrics, as never seen before.

Passion and integrity are the pillars of our team and these qualities push us to work harder and always find ways to evolve, enhance, and expand our products. Our passion is only rivaled by our drive to ensure that we always offer our customers the best cannabis concentrates on the market, period. Our team’s attention to detail and relentless pursuit to master the art form of extraction has enabled us to develop a superior product that truly is a cut above the rest. We can only hope that you enjoy our carefully crafted extractions as much as we have enjoyed developing them for you.
