NEWS
FORBES Magazine recently reported: Green Thumb Industries, Ben Kovler’s $5.7 billion enterprise in the Empire State, is expanding with a state-of-the-art new grow facility to compete in the rising marijuana industry.
By 2023, their “cannabis campus” will be processing tens of thousands of pounds of marijuana, millions of THC-infused candies and vape cartridges to stock its shops around New York.
Ben Kovler, 42, is the CEO and creator of the Chicago-based company, which produces and distributes cannabis, edibles, vaporizers, and other goods in 14 states and generated $79.3 million in adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter.
This plot of property has seen more than a century of America’s changing attitudes on drugs and crime. The New York City Farm, an early drug and alcohol treatment clinic headed by Charles Stokes, a former Surgeon General of the United States, was located there in 1914. It became the New York State Training School for Boys in the 1930s, a reform school aimed to rehabilitating troublesome city adolescents. The facility had been transformed into a state-run jail by the late 1970s. Nearly 400 jobs were lost when it shuttered a decade ago.
Cannabis will soon emerge from the ashes in Warwick. The legal market in New York, which is anticipated to open adult-use dispensaries in January 2023, is predicted to generate $3.8 billion in legal sales by 2025, making it the country’s second-largest market behind California. At a time when America’s cannabis prohibition is being lifted state by state—18 states now allow adult-use sales, 36 have legalized medical marijuana, and the $20 billion industry is expected to grow to a $100 billion juggernaut by the end of the decade— this facility is an important symbol of the changing times.
As Founder, CEO, and Chairman, Ben Kovler has vast expertise in managing complicated running enterprises as well as a strong dedication to charity. Ben launched Green Thumb in 2014, and the company has developed into a nationwide cannabis consumer packaged goods firm and retailer that develops and sells a portfolio of licensed cannabis products such as Rythm, Dogwalkers, The Feel Collection, and Beboe, among others. The firm also owns and manages RiseTM, a fast-expanding nationwide chain of retail cannabis outlets.
