Profile
Caliva is the San Francisco Bay Area's premier cannabis dispensary and cultivation facility. We opened in July of 2015, and in 2016, Caliva was ranked #1 dispensary in the nation by Business Insider. Our 100,000 square foot facility is one of the most advanced pharmaceutical-grade cannabis cultivating, manufacturing, and dispensing facilities in the country and a model for energy efficiency, safe access, and compliance.
We started Caliva because we believe strongly in the medicinal and wellness applications of cannabis. We believe strongly in a cannabis industry that is well-regulated, highly professional, and rigorously secure, and hold ourselves to the highest standards.
