A Non-Plant-Touching, Fully Compliant Operations Partner
CannaGroup 180 LLC operates exclusively as an ancillary B2B logistics and management consulting firm. We do NOT cultivate, manufacture, distribute, transport, sell, store, hold, or otherwise touch cannabis, cannabis-derived products, or controlled substances at any time. All revenues are derived exclusively from traditional B2B service agreements — consulting retainers, event management fees, exhibitor coordination fees, and marketing services — in strict alignment with federal banking protocols, AML standards, and commercial risk management guidelines. We perform rigorous compliance audits on all participating vendors prior to any event execution.
