ABOUT iLAVA
iLAVA is one of Arizona’s most innovative cannabis brands, recognized for its steady growth and groundbreaking products throughout the state. The journey began in 2013 when the founders opened a medical cannabis dispensary in Tucson. As the industry expanded, iLAVA identified gaps in the market, particularly for patients seeking targeted relief. This community feedback led to the creation of iLAVA, starting with the carefully formulated iLAVA Touch—a topical gel designed for pain and stress relief, which has since gained a devoted following.
More than a decade later, iLAVA continues to innovate, experiment, and solve problems, all while helping people find wellness through cannabis. The brand’s evolution is guided by three core principles:
Sustainability: iLAVA’s facilities and packaging are designed with a focus on sustainability, working towards a greener and more efficient future.
Diversity: iLAVA’s team reflects the diverse community it serves, embodying the multifaceted nature of the cannabis plant itself.
Innovation: iLAVA takes pride in developing pioneering products that prioritize the well-being of its customers over the bottom line.
iLAVA is now expanding beyond Arizona, with plans to bring its efficacious products to New York, Ohio, and Missouri. This growth allows iLAVA to reach more people in need, promoting a more informed and compassionate approach to cannabis use.
As iLAVA extends its reach, the brand remains committed to its mission of helping people find relief and wellness through cannabis. Join iLAVA on this exciting journey and experience the benefits of their innovative products for yourself.
