Every great harvest begins with a friendship and a shared belief in the power of cannabis to change lives. LOT420’s story began with childhood friends Stefan and Jean, both medical patients who experienced firsthand the benefits of the plant. They began cultivating under medical authorization, a small-scale grow that soon became a shared mission. Close friends joined along the way, bringing the resilience, skills, and trust needed to build something greater.
By 2015, the team applied for a federal license, which was granted in 2019, officially marking the start of LOT420 as a licensed producer. The journey was far from easy. At first self-financed, the company later grew through persistence and investor support. Yet the foundation of friendship, trust, and commitment never wavered.
“It wasn’t easy,” recalls Jean-Romain Peclet, Director of Operations. “But we have been able to succeed in this field by offering the highest quality cannabis, refined through years of expertise. We have mastered compliance, thriving within one of the most regulated systems in the world.”
At LOT420, cannabis is not a commodity—it is a craft. The company focuses on high-grade cannabis cultivation while also supporting international wholesale distribution across multiple markets. This dual expertise allows LOT420 to supply premium artisanal batches while helping producers reach fair value for their harvests.
To serve these markets reliably, LOT420 has earned certifications such as GACP and GlobalG.A.P., reinforcing its ability to meet global standards consistently. With EU GMP certification in progress, the company is preparing for a major milestone that will reduce processing times and strengthen its role as a leading exporter to Europe.
The LOT420 team considers themselves as cannabis sommeliers, using experience and instinct to grow plants that consistently meet global expectations. Most have worked together for years, gaining resilience through shared challenges and developing the expertise to manage the complexities of the plant with confidence. This strong culture is reflected in high retention, as people who join the company find purpose in a collaborative environment that values both skill and trust.
On the patient side, LOT420 has helped veterans and individuals from all walks of life transition from traditional prescriptions to cannabis-based treatments. Its dedicated care team provides personalized support to more than 200 patients in Canada. On the business side, the company partners with distributors across Europe and beyond, staying close to its network through trade shows and direct engagement.
Today, LOT420 is more than a cannabis producer. It is a benchmark for excellence, where friendship and passion fuel a global vision. With each harvest, LOT420 blends tradition with innovation, shaping the future of cannabis and redefining what the industry can achieve on a global scale.
