Beboe launched early last year and is described as the “Hermes of marijuana." Co-founder Clement Kwan sits down with Alyssa Julya Smith in Los Angeles to talk about how the brand is changing the stereotypes associated with cannabis.
Kwan discusses the importance of packaging when making a luxury brand like Beboe. He says the marketing of the products opens up a whole new demographic to cannabis products.
