Zyp Run recently launched its cannabis delivery operations on Jan. 20, 2023. Zyp Run has created its own proprietary e-commerce platform that provides a seamless experience for consumers to order products directly from Zyp Run’s website for speedy cannabis delivery within the greater Boston area. Zyp Run has raised $2.6 million for its seed round led by Satori Investment Partners and Mollitiam Capital.
“I’m proud to see this day come to fruition. Without the love and support of people from all walks of life across the city of Boston, none of this would have been possible,” said Gabe Vieira, CEO, and co-founder of Zyp Run.
“Boston has the opportunity to demonstrate what true social equity looks like. Inner city kids can succeed if given the chance and resources to do so,” said Elis Omoroghomwan, chief growth officer and co-founder of Zyp Run.
The four co-founders of Zyp Run are a young, diverse team of entrepreneurs, developers and business leaders who share a vision for bringing purpose to cannabis and giving back to the community: Chief Growth Officer Elis Omoroghomwan, Chief Technology Officer Michael Gordon, Chief Operations Officer Christian Nicholson and Co-founder Gabe Vieira, who grew up in the Dorchester neighborhood of Boston and held Zyp Run’s social equity membership.
Zyp Run is the first social equity company to build a proprietary platform for cannabis delivery. Its technology provides a consumer-friendly experience for cannabis delivery in Boston. To prevent the continuation of an inequitable status quo in the cannabis industry, Zyp Run employs and empowers individuals from communities that were negatively impacted by marijuana prohibition and enforcement.
