KushCo Becomes First Cannabis Company to Join the Sustainable Packaging Coalition

October 25, 2018

KushCo Holdings, Inc., the parent company of innovative cannabis companies such as Kush Supply Co., Kush Energy, The Hybrid Creative, and Koleto Packaging Solutions has announced that it has joined the Sustainable Packaging Coalition (SPC).

As a member of the SPC, KushCo will collaborate with other companies in a variety of industries, each involved in developing and employing environmentally-friendly packaging solutions that fit each company’s unique products and consumer demands. Other SPC members include notable companies such as The Coca-Cola Company, McDonald’s, Mars, Incorporated, Procter & Gamble, Starbucks Coffee, United Parcel Service (UPS) and Walmart, among others.

“Joining the Sustainable Packaging Coalition is a milestone not only for our company but for cannabis industry as whole. KushCo and its divisions are the first cannabis related company to join this premier tier of global brands in the SPC. This initiative further demonstrates our commitment to developing sustainable packaging solutions for the cannabis supply chain,” says CEO Nick Kovacevich. “We are dedicated to understanding how KushCo can employ innovative methods to develop more environmentally friendly packaging. As the cannabis industry’s largest and most respected distributor of packaging, supplies, and accessories, being a leader in reducing waste in the cannabis industry is an important pillar we internally rally around and plan for this to be a jumping off point for further sustainable company initiatives. As we innovate sustainable packaging options we will use our Koleto team of designers and engineers to further create and develop marketable products in this new tier of packaging awareness. We look forward to working with the SPC and its members to collaborate and determine how we can reduce our environmental impact and we’re excited for the innovative ideas and products which are to come.”
