In the past few months, the first retail locations for recreational cannabis have opened in Massachusetts. The Massachusetts Cannabis Control Commission has approved 4 more as of this writing, and others are expected to open throughout 2019. Adult-use recreational cannabis is now legal in 10 states and Washington D.C., and Marijuana Retail Report states, “consumers are expected to spend $57 billion per year worldwide on legal cannabis by 2027, according to Arcview Market Research, a cannabis-focused investment firm. In North America, that spending is expected to grow to $47.3 billion in 2027 from $9.2 billion in 2017.” The first two Massachusetts retail stores sold more than $2.2 million in the first five days they were open; that is 56,380 cannabis products!

As with any burgeoning industry, the need to set your brand apart is top of mind for those in the cannabis market. And what better way to do that than with a unique label? At Dion, we have plenty of experience in printing labels for both medicinal and recreational cannabis products. Whether you are selling salves, edibles, vaporizers, flower, or any other form of cannabis product, we know how to make a label that attracts consumers and differentiates your brand. In the coming months, we will be focusing our blog on the different ways our expertise can help new and established cannabis brands reach a wider consumer audience through unique labels. We will look at trends in label design, take a dive into the many sub-industries of retail cannabis, and keep you up to date on our capabilities as a label printing company with lots of experience in the industry.

Designing a label can be an involved process; logos, fonts, layout, material, and finish all must be taken into account. Then there’s the product-specific copy and information to include. It’s easy to get hung up on any or all of these things, but don’t forget to consider the importance of color selection While you may be choosing your colors based on your product or on your own color preference, you always want to make sure your colors are communicating the right thing to potential customers.

As part of Inovar Packaging Group, Dion Label Printing is working to creating a world-class enterprise by building an innovative platform to drive sustainable growth and handle the increasingly complex demands of our diverse range of customers. Over the last several years, our parent company Inovar has acquired new facilities at a quick pace, including, most recently: Cimarron Label in Sioux Falls, SD and Amherst Label in Milford, NH. Acquiring is a major part of Inovar’s strategy to grow the company and better serve our customers and our internal teams, and we are concurrently working to expand our capacity, capabilities, and service offerings in other ways. To that end Inovar has recently moved into a newly renovated headquarters building in Dallas, TX. Located just a short distance from Inovar’s previous facility headquarters, the new location was built to showcase the mission of our brand. At triple the size of the last facility, this brand new building with its huge increase in both office and production space will enable us to provide even more solutions and support to our customers. The new facility is not just larger, however. In order to increase our capacity, capabilities, and offerings, and give our customers the highest quality labels and packaging solutions, we’ve added two new flexographic presses and a new digital press. Our Director of Marketing, Ashley Stewart, states, “the additional capacity, services, and embellishment capabilities will greatly increase our ability to meet all the requirements of even the most demanding brands. The team is thrilled to debut the new facility and showcase our capabilities to our existing and future customers.”  We also have other expansions in the works. An addition of almost 20,000 additional square feet of production and warehousing space will expand Inovar’s Milwaukee, WI, location, Flexo-Graphics, and its presence in the area. We are excited for the opportunities our growth provides us to continue our rise as a premier label and packaging solution provider. Contact us today and let our growth help fuel yours.
