An Interview with Platinum Vape - Cover - June 2020


Platinum Vape is a brand known all over Michigan, but who are they?

It all began in 2012 when an inspired young man presented his father with a question: Do you want to sell pot?  After some convincing, and selling their dirt bikes for two grand each for starting capital, Cody and George Sadler were in business.  George kept up on the laws, while Cody secured a California med card to facilitate their first grow.  In fact, it was the first time either of them had grown anything at all.  

Flash forward to 2016.  Their now successful, and hand built, marijuana company asks itself a new question: Why rely on third parties for vape pens when we could make them ourselves? 
With that, Platinum Vape was born.  

As Platinum Vape graces the shelves of provisioning centers all over our state, the MM Report wanted to ask them a few questions of our own:



Q: Why is Platinum Vape the most popular cannabis cartridge in Michigan?

A: Honestly, I believe it is the quality and our commitment to the customer and the dispensary buyers.

This memorial weekend we participated in the planting of 8,000 US flags in support of fallen heroes. We are planting at Michigan Memorial Cemetery, which is in greater Metro-Detroit.
This is a cooperative effort with The Downriver for Veterans, they are leading the effort.  This is a small example of our community involvement.

Our React Foundation is pioneering the way in supportive efforts going to Veteran Support, Suicide Prevention, End Hunger, Children’s Hospital, Animal Rescue, Pride and Breast Cancer.

Each of these React Programs have local organizations attached.  No other cannabis company has this broad community commitment.
Tie this to the quality of our vape cartridges and it is a win-win. 



Q: What are the brands plans and future products?

A: Edibles will be our next product launch.  A gummy line.

Continued expansion, especially as the market evolves, into recreational and allowing lounges for consumption.



Q: Who is the host of PVTV and where is it based?

A: George Sadler and Cody Sadler host at our headquarters in San Diego.  This has been a fun project. The theme is “What has cannabis done for you?”

Amazing what people say.  We have some great guests lined up on the medical, scientific and recreational aspects of this plant.

It is a fun...definitely unfiltered...educational show.  We wanted to provide a platform that would be “adult” without the stoned stigma.  No one smokes on the show.

It is a frank conversation that is entertaining.



Q: What else do you want people to know about?

A: We are always looking outside the market to the future.  Innovation and not being held back by “what the market is saying”.

This mindset has allowed us to be ahead of the curve and not behind it.  We are pivoting.  Striving to improve and stretch.
