Trulieve Cannabis Corp. CEO Kim Rivers has won Green Market Report’s Women’s Leadership Award in the C-Suite category.
In the last year, Rivers has been the driving force behind several major business developments in the cannabis industry, including Trulieve’s retail footprint in U.S. cannabis profitability and transformational purchase of Harvest Health and Recreation. Rivers set a new industry standard with Trulieve’s release of its inaugural Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) report, the first issued by an American multi-state cannabis operator.
The Women’s Leadership Award honors women in the cannabis industry for their work in several different categories including Activism/Politics, Social Equity, Cultivation and Media.
“It’s an honor to be recognized amongst so many talented leaders who are redefining this industry,” said Rivers. “As the only female-led public multi-state operator, Trulieve has a unique opportunity to increase female representation and ownership within the sector. It’s also important to use this platform to foster significant economic and social advancement opportunities for local communities across the country. I look forward to a future when female leadership is ubiquitous in the C-Suite.”
The Women’s Leadership Award ceremony was held during Green Market Report Women’s Summit in New York City on April 28. The event was attended by many of the most successful women in the cannabis industry. Winners of Green Market Report’s Women’s Leadership Award were nominated and selected by a panel of industry insiders.
Trulieve is a vertically integrated cannabis company and multi-state operator in the U.S. operating in 11 states, with leading market positions in Arizona, Florida and Pennsylvania. Trulieve is poised for accelerated growth and expansion, building scale in retail and distribution in new and existing markets through its hub strategy.
