Brand Idea
THE NEW NORMAL
Address the stigma around cannabis head-on by taking people on a journey from counterculture to culture, ultimately painting a picture of a brighter future.
Challenge
Grow the MedMen brand within a category that has been stigmatized for most of our lifetimes.
Insight
1 in 5 Americans reports having used marijuana at least once in the last year, according to the CDC. Although the marijuana industry was booming, existing brands focused on fluff benefits and turned a blind eye to the industry’s biggest barrier to long-term growth – stigma.
