Leafly was named “Best Consumer Weed Platform” of 2023

Today, business website Benzinga gave us all a nice compliment – Leafly took home an award for Best Consumer Platform at the annual Benzinga Cannabis Awards.

Thank you, Benzinga, for naming us the Best Cannabis Tech Platform: B2C. We are proud to serve the million-strong Leafly Nation. We work every day on the database of 6,000 varieties, our 11,000+ items, the thousands of store menus you purchase, and much more.

Leafly CEO Yoko Miyashita raved about how chic Leafly is in 2023. Search for a variety, shop nearby, add to cart, and even have it delivered to you. What a time to be alive.

“We are proud to have built and been recognized for a platform that delivers a simple, comprehensive shopping experience from discovery to checkout; one that benefits both consumers at all experience levels and retailers in neighborhoods across the country.”

How to order weed delivery online from Leafly

Cool stuff on the go

When Leafly launched in 2010, no states had legalized weed. There are now 23 of them. Just this week, Leafly got even better with online ordering live and available in New York. Here are the stores that have activated the order as of press time.

New ones come online regularly. This year, life with weed just got easier with the launch of Leafly on Uber Eats in Canada.

And we’re not done yet. We’re accelerating our work on cool things to help you on your weed discovery journey.

Like what? Well, we’re adding 1,000 new varieties to the database this year, a 20% increase in the company’s 12th year. Plus more detailed variety photos of the top varieties.

Benzinga CEO Jason Raznick loves the way we connect with our Canna family.

“Leafly does this at the highest level, providing users with invaluable insights, research and more,” he said.

Look for these insights in monthly Leafly Buzz and Leafly HighLight columns, as well as Harvest’s upcoming varieties in October and 2023’s Variety of the Year in December.

Budtenders chose Leafly

Speaking of family, our 2023 National Leafy Strain of the Year includes a Budtenders’ Choice Award for the first time this year for top strains and flower brands in over 12 legal states.

Budtenders can take our one-minute survey about the best strain and flower brands in their state. Survey participants will be entered into a drawing to win a $1,000 check from Leafly. We’re announcing the three budtenders who will receive a big check on International Budtender Day on October 20th.

We have a lot more cooking for our readers, growers, budtenders and shops. Just this week we activated our new API so that every shop can connect to the Leafly grid.

Thanks for rocking with us, and thanks Benzinga!
