TIMONIUM, Md. — Curio Wellness, a cGMP-certified, vertically integrated cannabis company and innovator of health and wellness products, launched cultivation operations and flower products in Missouri. Curio’s launch portfolio features exclusive flower and pre-roll products including Cheddar Cheeze, Lemon Fresh, and Curio favorite Blissful Wizard. Hygienically cultivated to deliver high-quality flower with cannabinoid and terpene-rich repeatable profiles, Curio serves up multiple strains testing into 30+%.
Curio sees this launch as firmly establishing operations in Missouri,allowing the organization to bring both new and exciting strains to the state, in addition to a collection of strain-specific vapes. The company employs pharmaceutical-grade technology and extensively researched patent-pending infusion methods to craft terpene chews, vapes, tinctures, tablets, and topicals for those seeking everyday relief.
“The release of Curio’s Exclusive flower line brings small batch, full bud, hand-trimmed exotic strains with the highest potencies and terpene profiles to the Missouri market,” said Rebecca Raphael, Chief Revenue Officer. “With our unique strains and award-winning genetics, we’re excited to offer a new standard of cannabis in Missouri—one that’s designed to deliver a great experience, which patients and consumers can rely on every time they consume our flower.”
“The Missouri market presents a tremendous opportunity for Curio, not just in terms of growth but in our ability to raise the standard for manufacturing and cultivation quality on a state-wide level,” said Michael Bronfein, CEO. “As we look ahead to 2025, we are focused on expanding our brand availability and deepening our partnerships and consumer relationships. Our continued focus on research, development, and consumer-driven solutions will ensure that Curio remains at the forefront of the cannabis industry here and beyond.”
Last year, the company began manufacturing and distribution in the state with a new facility located in Maryland Heights. The 130,000-square-foot facility is a hub for science-backed production and has created approximately 150 jobs in the greater St. Louis area. Curio Wellness entered Missouri as one of the only manufacturers operating in the state under cGMP certification.
The introduction of Curio’s cultivation products follows closely after the first anniversary of Curio Wellness’ first Far & Dotter franchise opening in Mississippi, as a part of its inclusive franchising model. Most recently, Curio announced a strategic partnership with Ascend Wellness Holdings, where Ascend will manufacture and distribute Curio products in Illinois, New Jersey, and Massachusetts and Curio will manufacture and distribute AWH products in Maryland.
