Founded in 2012, the company is headquarter in Denver, Colorado, and sells products at many retail locations across a distribution network of licensed affiliates in the United States, Jamaica, Czech Republic, France, Netherlands, United Kingdom, Canada, Poland, Ireland, Scotland and South Africa.

History

[edit]

O.penVAPE's premium line of Craft RESERVE cartridges won the first place prize for Best Vape Pen Cartridge in the High Times 2016 Colorado Cannabis Cup competition.[1][2]

In Europe, O.penVAPE branded products, with the exception of Organa Labs cannabis line, are available in the Czech Republic, France, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.[3]

O.penVAPE is a founding member of the National Cannabis Industry Association.[citation needed]

The Denver Department of Environmental Health appointed Ralph Morgan, CEO of O.penVAPE, to serve on its Cannabis Sustainability Work Group, in December 2015, to determine best practices and develop other educational resources for the industry.[4]

In May 2016, the company submitted a bid to assume the naming rights of the Denver Broncos' stadium after Sports Authority declared bankruptcy. [5]
