Our Story

RIV Capital is a purpose-driven cannabis acquisition and investment firm focused on delivering a premium experience.

RIV Capital (“RIV”) is an acquisition and investment firm with a focus on building a leading multistate platform with one of the strongest portfolios of brands in key strategic U.S. markets.

Backed by in-house expertise and cannabis domain knowledge, RIV Capital aims to grow its own brands and partner with established U.S. cannabis operators and brands to bring them to new markets and build market share.
