Cannabis jobs at Mary Jane's Medicinals

Company Overview

Mary Jane’s Medicinals is one of the most successful and longest standing topical brands in the US. Founded in 2009 by Dahlia Mertens, sole owner and proprietor to this day, Mary Jane’s stands behind its passion for the holistic wellness approach which built the foundation of our business over a decade ago. Unlike most topical brands in the emerging cannabis industry that use distillate or extracted oil to add to their base ingredients for a final product, Mary Jane’s continues to utilize its Whole Plant Approach which maintains a full spectrum of cannabinoids, terpenes, and other healing compounds naturally found in the cannabis plant.

With headquarters still based in Telluride CO, Mary Jane’s has gained a national following among consumers from states all over the country. Available in over 300 dispensaries in CO, Mary Jane’s has been acquiring a distribution footprint that expands into OK and NM and will be available in stores in NV before the end of the year. The company plans to penetrate 3-4 more states in 2021 as it prepares for national legalization in the near future.

The most recent expansion Mary Jane’s has accomplished is launching its Hemp (CBD Only) products under the Mary Jane’s Botanicals label. Sales began in late Sept 2020, and shipments have occurred across the nation.
