World's Largest Cannabis Beverage Processing Facility Opens

DeltaBev, a cannabis beverage manufacturing facility, began operations last month with the brand CANN as its first production partner.

Located in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles County, the 45,000-sq.-ft. facility sits on 1.67 acres and is the world's largest cannabis beverage manufacturing plant in terms of capacity. It has state-of-the-art processing and packaging capabilities across canning, bottling, and "mini" production lines.

DeltaBev is focused on upholding rigorous manufacturing quality standards for beverages, aligning itself as a high-quality and viable supplier in the consumer-packaged goods (CPG) industry. The facility's construction places a premium on product quality, stability, and consistency. DeltaBev prioritizes THC potency preservation at all stages with reverse osmosis water filtration, water de-aeration, advanced mixing technologies, inline emulsion injection, CO2 purging, and counter pressure filling. 

Distinguishing itself from most other cannabis beverage co-manufacturers, DeltaBev extends standard procurement services to all customers. By leveraging its purchasing power to enhance customer margins, DeltaBev aims to foster more competitive retail pricing, ultimately making the cannabis beverage category more accessible to consumers.

As part of the vertically integrated Blaze Life Holdings (BLH), the facility's production capabilities extend to seamless distribution with co-located SuLo Distro, a full-service cannabis distributor covering California.

BLH's continued focus is optimizing its vertical integration structure to drive streamlined efficiencies in developing, producing, and distributing cannabis beverages. "By streamlining our operations and eliminating unnecessary complexity, we are enabling downstream profitability and accelerating time to market, delivering fresher products to consumers faster," said Shreyas Balakrishnan, CEO of BLH.

DeltaBev customers include Mary Jones, CANN, Sip Elixirs, CQ, Nevis Brands, Tinley's, award-winning Bodega Coolers, and Cheeche'lada, a cannabis-infused Michelada released in partnership with Cheech Marin.
