About Leaf Infusions
- Location: New Westminster, British Columbia
- Licensed Date: 2022
- Licence Type: Processing
Based in New Westminster, British Columbia, Leaf Infusions is a cannabis toll processor that operates to GPP standards in Canada. With its state-of-the-art cannabis processing equipment and procedures, the company efficiently transforms raw cannabis materials into THC and CBD vape, edible and topical cannabis products, helping licensed producers take new products to market exponentially faster, cheaper, and easier.
The Situation
Leaf Infusions’ business model involves processing raw cannabis material from its customers promptly while adhering to Canadian GPP standards. In doing so, Leaf Infusions must be able to confidently track its ingredients, raw materials and cannabis while also handling vendor and customer relations, and production records.
With such a complex manufacturing process, the team at Leaf Infusions knew they couldn’t rely on a confusing network of Excel sheets and paperwork to keep track of production and inventory data. They needed access to a single source of truth that would allow them to collect data easily, track batch information accurately and help them scale without jeopardizing the efficiency and the quality of their cannabis toll processing service.
The Solution
“As a cannabis processor with a complex operation, we required highly customizable software that could meet our specific requirements for vendor management, inventory, processing, and quality/compliance checkpoints. We found Elevated Signals and can’t say enough positive things about them,” says Braeden Calyniuk, Co-Founder, of Leaf Infusions Inc.
Elevated Signals is an agile manufacturing software built for the cannabis industry. The adaptable nature of the software meant Leaf Infusions was able to tailor the system to its specific processing needs. As a result, they can iterate on their manufacturing processes, refine SKUs, and bring new products to market faster because different departments are aligned. They have real-time inventory visibility, and they don't need to spend time doing administrative tasks like building and upkeeping their own inventory + quality system.
“What particularly stood out for us as a new client, was the willingness to invest in our business with time and resources, which included face time with numerous team members. They were able to address customizations, roll out features unique to us and most importantly, listened to our feedback,” continues Braeden.
“Thanks to Elevated Signals, our production team is now paperless. We have a simple yet sophisticated, repeatable, step-by-step process to follow in the software, and complex manufacturing batches, which previously took hours on paper, can now be completed in under 35 minutes - with total accuracy. This has led to streamlined efficiencies with our QA and compliance department for review, tracking and release…they love it!”
