Add-on customization finishes - foils, spot UV, soft touch, embossing

The best mouse trap wins, but only if it’s profitable. Let us help you take your products to the next level.
Management
Shelby Green Group’s owner has a colorful background that has shaped our core values by putting the company in touch with the needs of the cultivator, processor, dispensary, and most importantly the consumer.
Steve completed his bachelor’s of science at James Madison University in Business and Engineering, with a Fine Arts Minor.
He started his career as an independent manufactures sales rep and national account sales manager. For over a decade he represented dozens of specialized component manufacturers and sold engineered hardware to Fortune 500 original equipment manufacturers (OEM’s). He facilitated international multi-year supply agreements in some of the most stringent industries; automotive, power distribution and generation, and with military contractors to name a few.
Money was always a motivator, but life is simply too short to not follow your passion. He joined a cannabis start up in San Francisco, which led to the birth of Shelby Green Group.
Our mission is to offer the highest level of professionalism to the entrepreneurs who are equally as passionate about growing the cannabis industry.
Our goal is to help clients launch successful brands, accelerate sales and profitability, build awareness and customer loyalty with proven distributor partnerships and manufacturer direct relationships.
We love what we do, and do what we love.
