We’re proud to spotlight another incredible Black-owned business on LeafLink: Dash Distro, a social equity micro business based in Oakland, California.

With brands like , their expertly hand-rolled h@sh hole, and , a flower brand specializing in exotic smalls from top-tier California cultivators, Dash Distro is setting a new standard in boutique manufacturing and statewide distribution. Committed to quality over margins, they ensure their brands maintain the highest level of integrity.

Dash Distro CEO Armande Milhouse emphasizes that their products should stand on their own merit rather than just being recognized for their social equity license: “In my opinion, this has done more for the term social equity than anything else. When people find out that I am the founder, they are often surprised that I am at the events or doing in-store demos. I feel as though we present more like larger brands and in doing so, give the term social equity the spotlight it deserves.”

Dash Distro continues to redefine what it means to be a social equity business by leading with innovation, excellence, and authenticity.

In honor of today's holiday, let's remember to support the mission-driven groups that are taking meaningful action.
