White Label and Private Label Production

We produce products under your brand’s identity (your name, your packaging, your label) with all production, compliance, and Metrc handled at our facility.

We work with:

• Cannabis brands launching their first product line
• Established brands scaling production beyond internal capacity
• Dispensaries building private label programs
• Multistate operators entering the California market
• Investment backed operators who want to move fast without building infrastructure

Co-Packing

If you have an established input supply chain and prefer to control your own sourcing, our co-packing service handles everything from intake through distribution ready packaging. You deliver the inputs. We handle production.

The Chronic USA White Label Production Process

Every white label production relationship at Chronic USA follows the same structured process. Here is what to expect from first contact through finished product.

Step 1: Initial Consultation

We start with a tour of our Long Beach facility. This is where we walk through your product category, your volume requirements, your packaging preferences, and your timeline.

We do not produce a quote or commit to a production schedule without understanding your specific situation. The tour is the right starting point.

Step 2: Onboarding and Specification Confirmation

Once we agree to work together, we move into onboarding. This covers:

• Product specification review: fill weight targets, tolerances, product format details
• Label artwork compliance review: we review your artwork against current DCC requirements and flag any issues before the run begins
• Packaging material confirmation: CR certification documentation reviewed, tamper seal format confirmed
• Input intake protocol: how inputs will be delivered, Metrc transfer requirements
• Metrc workflow setup: your account relationship with our facility confirmed
• Production scheduling: first run date confirmed with turnaround commitment

Onboarding typically takes two to four weeks. Brands that arrive with compliant artwork, packaging materials sourced, and inputs identified move through onboarding at the faster end of that range.

Step 3: Input Intake

Your inputs arrive at our facility. We log them into Metrc, verify weights against transfer documentation, inspect for quality and spec compliance, and confirm everything is in order before production begins.

Step 4: Production

Production begins on the scheduled date. Our team manages the full workflow: grinding where applicable, filling, finishing, quality inspection, labeling, sealing, and case packing.

Fill weight samples are pulled and logged throughout every production run. Batch records document inputs used, equipment settings, QC results, and final unit count.

Step 5: Quality Review and Compliance Signoff

Before products leave our facility, we conduct a final quality and compliance review. Labels are verified against the batch COA. Tamper seals are confirmed on every unit. Packaging integrity is checked. Unit counts are verified against Metrc records.

Step 6: Distribution Transfer

Finished products are transferred to your licensed distributor. We initiate the Metrc transfer, prepare case packed product for pickup, and coordinate with your distribution partner on timing.

If you do not yet have a California distribution partner, we can provide introductions to trusted distributors in our network.

Who We Work With

Chronic USA partners with California cannabis operators across the full spectrum of size, stage, and product category.

New Brands Launching in California

We have helped brands go from first production run to first retail placement. We walk new brand clients through the full compliance process, provide guidance on packaging formats and specifications, and work with distribution partners to get products in front of retail buyers efficiently.

Established Brands Scaling Production

We have the capacity to absorb brands that have outgrown their current co-packing relationship or internal production capability. If you have established retail velocity and need a partner who can keep up with your growth, we want to hear from you.

Dispensaries Building Private Label Programs

We have helped California dispensaries launch their first private label SKU and expand to full house brand programs. We understand the unique operational and positioning considerations of dispensary private label and bring that experience to every relationship.

Multistate Operators Entering California

California compliance is different from other state markets. We bring deep familiarity with California DCC requirements, Metrc workflows, and the California supply chain, which makes MSO market entry faster and less expensive than building internal capability from scratch.

Brands That Need a Reliable Partner After a Bad Experience

If you have experienced compliance problems, turnaround inconsistency, or quality issues with a previous co-packing partner, we understand the operational damage that creates. We are built for brands that need production reliability, not just production capacity.

California DCC Compliance at Chronic USA

Compliance is not a checklist we run at the end of production. It is built into every stage of our production workflow.

What Our Compliance Process Covers

• Label artwork review against current DCC requirements before every production run. Not a visual check, but a substantive compliance review.
• Universal cannabis symbol verification: correct DCC approved symbol, confirmed minimum size on both panels
• Government warning language verification: verbatim, correct font size
• COA to label verification: cannabinoid content on labels matched against the batch COA before labels are applied
• Child resistant packaging certification documentation on file for every packaging format we use
• Tamper evident seal confirmation, with every unit verified before case packing
• Metrc compliance: intake logging, batch creation, UID tag application, transfer initiation, all managed by our compliance team
• Regulatory monitoring: we stay current with DCC updates and update our production workflows when requirements change

Type 7 License

Chronic USA holds a Type 7 California cannabis manufacturing license. A Type 7 license authorizes all Type 6 activities (packaging, labeling, pre-roll manufacturing, vape cart filling, and co-packing) plus volatile solvent extraction (BHO, PHO, and other hydrocarbon extraction methods).

For brands that need both extraction and production services under one partner relationship, our Type 7 license provides the coverage to support that scope.

How to Get Started With Chronic USA

The right starting point is a tour of our Long Beach facility. We do not produce quotes, confirm production schedules, or commit to onboarding timelines without a conversation about your specific product, volume, and situation.

The tour is typically 45 to 60 minutes. You will see our production floor, review our equipment and workflows, meet our team, and have an opportunity to ask specific questions about your product categories.

Booking is handled directly through Nina, our sales contact.

What to Bring to the Tour

• Your product category or categories: what you want to produce
• Your target monthly or annual volume. Even a rough estimate helps us discuss capacity and scheduling.
• Your timeline: when you need to be in production
• Any specific compliance questions, particularly if you are new to California or entering from another state
• Label artwork or packaging concepts if you have them. Not required, but useful for a more specific compliance discussion.

After the Tour

If there is a fit, we follow up with a written proposal covering production services, pricing structure, minimum order requirements, and a proposed onboarding timeline.

We do not believe in one size fits all arrangements. Your production agreement is structured based on your specific product mix, volume commitments, and operational requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What products can Chronic USA manufacture under a white label arrangement?

Chronic USA manufactures flower packaging, pre-rolls (standard and infused formats including live resin, liquid diamonds, kief coated, and other infused varieties), vape cartridges (510 thread and disposable formats), concentrate packaging (rosin, live resin, badder, sauce, sugar, wax), and offers co-packing services for brands with established input supply chains. All production is performed at our licensed Type 7 facility in Long Beach, California with DCC compliant packaging, Metrc compliance, and quality control included in every production run.

What is the minimum order quantity at Chronic USA?

Minimum order quantities are discussed during the facility tour and confirmed in the production agreement. We work with brands at multiple stages of growth, from first production runs for new California launches to high volume recurring programs for established brands. Contact us or schedule a tour to discuss your specific volume requirements and confirm whether they align with our current scheduling availability.

How quickly can a brand launch with Chronic USA?

Brands that arrive prepared, with compliant label artwork in progress, packaging materials identified, and inputs available, can complete onboarding and run a first production batch within four to eight weeks of signing a production agreement. The total time from first contact to first retail placement is typically eight to fourteen weeks when all workstreams run in parallel: manufacturing onboarding, packaging compliance review, input sourcing, distribution engagement, and retail buyer outreach happening concurrently rather than sequentially.

Does Chronic USA help with California DCC compliance?

Yes. Our production workflow includes a substantive label compliance review before every production run. Not a visual check, but a specific review against current DCC labeling requirements. We verify the universal cannabis symbol format and minimum size, government warning language, COA to label cannabinoid content matching, child resistant packaging certification, and tamper seal application. We also manage all Metrc compliance at the production stage: intake logging, batch creation, UID tag application, and transfer documentation. Regulatory monitoring is ongoing, and when DCC requirements change, we update our workflows.

Where is Chronic USA located?

Chronic USA is located in Long Beach, California. Our facility is accessible to cannabis operators across Southern California and well positioned for distribution to Los Angeles, Orange County, and the broader Southern California retail market. We support brands distributing throughout California through licensed distribution partners.

Does Chronic USA offer distribution support?

We do not hold a distribution license, but we have established relationships with licensed California cannabis distributors and can facilitate introductions for brands that need distribution partners. We coordinate the production to distribution handoff on our end, including Metrc transfer initiation and case packing for distributor pickup.

Can Chronic USA work with brands that have existing packaging designs?

Yes. We work with your existing label artwork and packaging specifications. Before the first production run, we review your label artwork for DCC compliance and flag any issues that need to be addressed before production begins. If your artwork meets current compliance requirements, we apply it as is. If it requires updates, we provide specific feedback so corrections can be made before the run is scheduled.

What makes Chronic USA different from other California white label manufacturers?

Three things distinguish our operation from most California co-packing options. First, compliance is genuinely built into our production workflow, not added as a final check. Second, we have depth across product categories: flower, pre-rolls (including infused formats), vape, and concentrates from one facility under one relationship, which simplifies supply chain management as brands grow their product lines. Third, we bring specific experience with new California brand launches, dispensary private label programs, and MSO California market entries, which means we understand the operational context of the brands we work with, not just the production requirements.

How does the onboarding process work at Chronic USA?

Onboarding begins after the facility tour and production agreement are complete. It covers product specification confirmation, label artwork compliance review, packaging material confirmation with CR certification documentation, input intake protocol and Metrc transfer setup, and first production run scheduling. Onboarding typically takes two to four weeks. Brands that arrive with compliant artwork, packaging sourced, and inputs identified move through the faster end of that range. We provide specific guidance throughout. Onboarding is not a form filling exercise; it is the foundation of a production relationship that works.

Can Chronic USA produce infused pre-rolls?

Yes. We produce infused pre-roll formats including live resin infused, liquid diamonds infused, distillate interior coated, kief coated exterior, bubble hash infused, and combination infusion methods. Infused pre-roll production involves additional steps beyond standard filling (infusion application, coating, or blending depending on the format) and requires more complex cannabinoid content documentation because the label must reflect combined potency of both flower and infused material.
