Blum Holdings, Inc.

Blüm Holdings, Inc. is a California-focused cannabis operator that combines retail dispensaries, non-storefront delivery, consulting, and distribution activities under a holding-company structure. The company has been reshaped through asset sales and restructuring, including the divestiture of legacy Blüm dispensaries in Oakland, San Leandro, and Santa Ana, while adding new California retail locations and operating agreements. Its portfolio includes the Korova brand of high-potency cannabis products, which supports both retail sales and broader brand recognition. As of late 2025, Blüm operated five cannabis retail locations in California and continued to emphasize profitability, inventory discipline, and selective expansion in its home market.
