Launching a Global Recreational Cannabis Brand: Jacana

by David Molo October 05, 2020

The stars aligned for Jacana, a pioneering global medical cannabis company, when it decided to bring Jamaican grown cannabis to both the Jamaican and world market. Cultivation, extraction, manufacturing, and distribution were all well covered, but it needed to solidify an identity to effectively launch its cannabis brand.

Jacana Paper Tube Co

Jacana embarked on a initiative to develop an iconic lifestyle brand that would represent the company mission and uphold its values, while distinguishing itself from the highly competitive crowd. It turned to Paper Tube Co for distinctive, eco-friendly packaging that would replace plastic containers with a unique presentation and engaging experience.

Paper Tube worked quickly to provide a turnkey solution for Jacana, from concept to delivery. Jacana’s package design utilizes colors and graphics that showcase the brand and evoke a sense of premium quality, with various sizes for flower, rolled flower, vape pen and vape cartridge products. Knowing Jacana is a major champion of environmentally sustainable practices, Paper Tube Co’s recyclable and reusable materials were a natural fit and immediately well-received during prototyping for a short turnaround of manufacturing and fulfillment of a total packaging solution.
