Cannabis Accounting & CFO Services Across North America
Cannabis Financial Expertise, Coast to Coast
Cannabis is regulated state by state, but a handful of pressures follow operators everywhere: Section 280E at the federal level, limited banking, cash-heavy day-to-day operations, and reporting expectations that climb the moment a business starts to scale. Verdant Strategies helps cannabis operators across the United States and North America meet those pressures head-on with accounting, tax, and fractional CFO support built specifically for this industry.
With offices on both coasts and clients in regulated markets nationwide, we bring the same standard of financial rigor to a single-location retailer and a multi-state operator alike.

Serving the Industry
Two Offices, One Standard of Service
Verdant works from offices in New York and Los Angeles, anchoring the two largest cannabis economies in North America and keeping our team within reach of operators on both coasts and everywhere in between. Good financial guidance has never depended on a shared zip code; it depends on knowing the industry. Whether your books sit in California, your licenses are in New York, or your footprint stretches across several states, you work with one team that understands cannabis finance from seed to sale.
Verdant in New York
From our New York office, we support operators working in some of the most closely watched regulated markets on the East Coast, where licensing, compliance, and tax rules move quickly and the cost of getting them wrong is high. Our New York team brings the financial structure and industry fluency these operators need to keep pace.
Verdant in Los Angeles
Verdant was founded in Los Angeles, and we’ve supported California operators since 2014, from coastal retail to inland cultivation, across the country’s largest and most established cannabis market. Our West Coast team pairs deep California experience with the financial discipline operators need to stay profitable in a maturing market.
Cannabis Markets We Serve
Our clients run regulated operations in markets across North America. Today that footprint includes:
- California, New York, and New Jersey
- Florida, Massachusetts, and Michigan
- Illinois, Minnesota, and Colorado
- Oregon, Washington, New Mexico, and Texas
- We also serve clients internationally (*link to international locations page*)
As new states bring regulated cannabis markets online, our coverage grows with them, so operators expanding into a new state can keep the same financial partner instead of starting over.
What We Do for Cannabis Operators
Verdant is a full-service financial partner for the cannabis industry, not a seasonal tax preparer.
Operators come to us for:
- Industry-specific accounting and bookkeeping that keeps the books clean year-round
- Fractional CFO leadership for forecasting, budgeting, and board-ready reporting
- 280E tax strategy and coordinated federal, state, and local tax planning
- Compliance, audit readiness, and regulatory reporting
- Cash flow and operational oversight built for cash-intensive businesses
- Multi-entity and multi-state financial management as operations grow

Operating Beyond U.S. Borders?
Plenty of the operators and investors we work with don’t stop at the state line, or the national one. If your business spans foreign ownership, cross-border investment, or markets outside the U.S., our international team can help you navigate the added tax and reporting complexity that comes with it.
One Firm Behind Operators Across the Country
Cannabis operators don’t need a vendor who disappears after tax season. They need a financial partner who understands the industry, keeps the numbers honest, and is still in the room when the next big decision comes around. That’s the role Verdant plays for hundreds of operators nationwide, and it’s the standard we hold whether a client runs one shop or a dozen.
Wherever you operate in the U.S., we’d like to help you build a stronger financial foundation under it.
