With over 39 million people, and being home to the largest cannabis market in the world, California is considered the big prize when it comes to market penetration for a cannabis brand. 

During this time of mandatory quarantine, to be able to reach this population with products that can help relax people, help them sleep better, and overall make them much more comfortable while sheltering in their homes is key. This concept is exactly why cannabis has been deemed “essential”.

Understanding this reality, most cannabis brands are shifting their sales strategies and channels to provide the safest route to receiving your products for consumption. In order to meet this new reality and demand, the House of Saka, Inc., producers of the first and only alcohol-free, cannabis-infused beverages made from select vineyards within the iconic Napa Valley appellation, announced today that its award winning line of cannabis beverages are now available for home delivery throughout the entire state of California after partnering with Driven Deliveries, Inc. 

“Online, direct to consumer delivery platforms have always been the priority sales channel for our Saka Vinfusions™,” notes House of Saka, Inc. CEO, Tracey Mason. “The convenience, combined with a stigma-free shopping environment, provides the most ideal opportunity for both our traditional consumers and the emerging new consumer.” 

“The ability for us to be able to bring our product directly to our consumers presently sheltering safely at home during this crisis was critical,” expressed Sue Bachorski, House of Saka COO & CFO. “We are both excited and extremely grateful to have partnerships in place with such a respected and far reaching group as Driven Deliveries and their popular platforms Ganjarunner.com and budee.org. Their organization is professional, dependable and respected. These are the attributes that we seek in our relationships.” 

In the age of social distancing, it is now more important than ever to expand consumers’ access to cannabis while limiting one’s potential exposure to Covid-19. Partnering with Driven Deliveries, California’s fastest growing online cannabis retailer and direct-to-consumer delivery platforms, means House of Saka is available in 92% of California; including San Diego, Los Angeles, San Jose, Orange County, Palm Springs, Santa Barbara, Oakland, San Francisco, Sacramento, Sonoma and Napa Valley. 

“Delivering the industry’s highest quality and most desired brands to the doorsteps of consumers throughout the state of California is our number one priority, especially during this time of quarantine,” expressed Christian Schenk, CEO of Driven Deliveries, Inc. “Partnering with the House of Saka to distribute their brand on both their website and our platform was a natural fit. We look forward to a long and fruitful relationship with their team.” 

Saka PINK, and the new Saka WHITE coming in June, can be purchased through House of Saka’s website (https://www.houseofsaka.com/) as well as GanajaRunner.com and Budee.org.

LOS ANGELES, CA, March 31, 2020 /AxisWire/ — Driven Deliveries Inc.(the “Company” or Driven) (OTC: DRVD), California’s fastest growing online cannabis retailer and direct-to-consumer delivery company announced today, that over the last 10 days the company has experienced record growth and demand with a greater than 100% increase in sales. Following California’s decision to deem Cannabis deliveries an “essential business,” Driven is increasing infrastructure to provide California customers safe access to legal cannabis through the government mandated quarantine.

“Driven Deliveries was founded on the bedrock principle of enabling universal access to cannabis to California’s population,” said Driven Deliveries’ CEO Christian Schenk. “Driven is the only service that provides deliveries to 92% of California’s population, giving millions of people access to on-demand legal cannabis from the security and safety of their own home during this very difficult time”.

Driven Deliveries’ proprietary logistics system, acquired from Budee Inc, designed to expand efficiently based on demand in a given area, performed flawlessly during the surge in demand. “Our major launch came earlier than expected,” said Sal Villanueva, President Driven Deliveries. “The operations team has done an amazing job integrating Driven’s 3 brands on a unified platform giving Driven the ability to rapidly support the additional demand,” he added.

The impact of coronavirus has required Driven to scale its driver network to meet the increase in demand. In an effort to comply with Government orders to stay home, Driven expects further growth as people continue to incorporate delivery services into their new routines.

Finally, Driven continues to innovate in ways to make delivery both easier and safer. Driven’s delivery system allows consumers to leverage electronic payment methods as well as cash, making it significantly more convenient than other options. In addition to the extra steps being taken to ensure safe deliveries through the use of protective disposable gloves and continuous sanitization, Driven is also exploring new ways that technology can be used for a contact free delivery while still meeting the ID verification requirements.

Driven Deliveries understands that anxiety and stress are increased around the country, and that both medical and recreational customers want access to cannabis without the risk of exposure associated with visiting a dispensary.
