The Agreement will bring EFF’s award-winning lineup of jarred flower, pre-rolls and concentrates onto Cresco’s California distribution platform, Continuum, which is one of the largest full-service distribution businesses in the state.
“We have long admired and supported EFF’s focus on environmental stewardship and social responsibility,” said David Gacom, Regional President, West Region, at Cresco Labs. “Part of our success in expanding our California distribution network has been our ability to offer the highest quality craft flower. This Agreement continues to build on that strength with some of the best flower in California being added to our roster of top performing California brands. Having brought hundreds of the region’s finest farmers under one banner, EFF’s success story is proof that exceptional cannabis and uncompromising values can coexist.”
Our cultivators and leadership team work incredibly hard to ensure that all EFF products meet the highest quality standards. In our search for a distribution partner, we were looking for one that shared that mindset, Cresco Labs’ Continuum emerged as the clear choice.

We are excited to have a partner that not only has a best-in-class full-service distribution platform, but also a team on the ground in California that truly understands how successful brands are built. We are confident that this will help ensure that our premium flower and concentrates can be enjoyed by consumers statewide.
