LOS ANGELES —
Moose Labs, a product innovation company for the cannabis industry, was ranked #675 on the latest Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing companies in the U.S., boasting 875 percent revenue growth over the past three years. This prestigious recognition follows an additional listing earlier this year on Inc’s 2023 Regionals, where Moose Labs secured the #21 spot in the Pacific region.
Companies on the 2023 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2019 to 2022. To qualify, companies must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and generating by March of 2019. The Inc. 5000 class of 2023 represents companies that have driven rapid revenue growth while navigating inflationary pressure, the rising costs of capital, and seemingly intractable hiring challenges.
“As a family-owned start-up in cannabis, it’s both an honor and a rarity to be found on a list like this,” said Jay Rush, Co-Founder of Moose Labs. “For years, we’ve been driven to rid cannabis consumers of their less-than-pristine sharing habits, and our slot on this list proves that our message is really starting to take hold on a national scale.”
The Moose Labs flagship product, the MouthPeace, otherwise known as the Clorox wipe of cannabis accessories, saw a 9,000 percent increase in sales following the onset of COVID-19. The MouthPeace is the first physician-backed germ-preventing accessory designed to fit glass pipes, joints, vape pens, and e-cigarettes for a cleaner smoke circle among friends.
Moose Labs introduced the MouthPeace Mini in October 2020 as a follow-up to the original MouthPeace for bigger glass pipes that became a hit far before the pandemic. Made with high-quality platinum-cured silicone, both the original MouthPeace and MouthPeace Mini create a sanitary barrier, preventing direct oral contact with a variety of shared smoking devices.
Each MouthPeace comes with a proprietary MouthPeace Filter designed to fit snugly inside the device. These replaceable filters use activated carbon and triple-layer filtration to remove resins, contaminants, and tar particles from each inhale, creating a cleaner, safer smoking experience that protects both your lungs and your peace of mind.
Among this year’s top 500 companies recognized by Inc., the average median three-year revenue growth rate ticked up to an astonishing 2,238 percent. In all, this year’s Inc. 5000 companies have added 1,187,266 jobs to the economy over the past three years.
