Property Description
Listing #5309
Asking Price: $4,000,000
WeCann is pleased to present an exclusive opportunity to acquire an established, fully licensed greenhouse cultivation business in Carpinteria, California’s premier greenhouse corridor. The operation has ±140,000 SF of mixed-light greenhouse infrastructure across four connected sections, ±105,000 SF of reported canopy, and a full license stack of 11 Small Mixed-Light Tier 2 licenses plus a nursery license. This greenhouse has produced Emerald Cup–winning flower and has a track record of award-winning strains. A buyer gets an established genetics program and the infrastructure and know-how behind it, along with commercial scale from day one, without the time, capital and permitting risk of a ground-up build.
The upside goes beyond the asking price. About 4 additional acres on the same property hold existing greenhouse structures that are currently inactive, giving a buyer a rehab-and-expand path that could roughly double the footprint using infrastructure already in place. The same seller also operates a licensed Santa Ana facility with Type 7 volatile manufacturing, packaging and distribution, about 90 miles down the coast. It’s available separately or as a combined package, so a buyer can own a full Southern California seed-to-sale platform. The underlying real estate may also be negotiable with the landowner. With roughly $9M in historical infrastructure investment and an asking price of about $38 per SF of reported canopy, this is a rare chance to get scale, pedigree and growth runway in one acquisition.
