Our Mission
Leaf Trade was born out of listening. Our founder, James Yi, listened to his friends about what was broken within the Cannabis industry and built Leaf Trade to fix it. That spirit of listening is what drives us today — from onboarding to education, to feature requests. We listen, brainstorm and build.
And what Leaf Trade is building, is nothing less than the future of wholesale Cannabis buying and selling. We’re doing that by giving cannabis, ancillary, and CBD businesses the tools they need to stay on top in increasingly competitive, highly regulated markets. Our tech solutions allow for the exponential growth of cannabis industry changemakers. We pride ourselves on supporting the cannabis companies that are changing the world, the marketplace, and our communities for the better.
James Yi is the founder and CEO of Leaf Trade, a technology company whose platform facilitates ordering and fulfillment in highly regulated cannabis markets. In this role, he leads company strategy and execution to ensure that Leaf Trade delivers innovation, value, and happiness to its stakeholders. In the nascent cannabis industry, James bears both keen industry understanding and proven technology experience, having previously co-founded NextME, a B2B software provider across multiple industries including restaurants and healthcare, and serving as a cannabis industry consultant.
Cannabis Connected
Upgrading The Future
Leaf Trade is building and maintaining the tools that are powering the future of Cannabis. But in order to fully embrace the future, we need to address and heal the issues of the past.
Our Strategy Has Two Prongs:
Sustainability
We’re working to reach out to black-owned, women-owned, and POC-owned cannabis businesses and to highlight them on our eCommerce platform and through our customer marketing initiatives.
As the Cannabis industry has grown, so has its carbon footprint. That’s why minimizing waste is crucial. Each mistake in ordering and fulfillment is paid for in the health of the planet. By creating efficient supply chains, we reduce unnecessary carbon output caused by mistakes.
Equity
We’re working to reach out to black-owned, women-owned, and POC-owned cannabis businesses and to highlight them on our eCommerce platform and through our customer marketing initiatives.
At Leaf Trade we feel that the growing cannabis industry is uniquely poised to address the injustices caused by many years of anti-cannabis propaganda and begin to right some of the wrongs of the past.
.
By leveraging our data and reporting, cultivators can plan their grow cycles and forge new B2B connections. And on the retail side, buyers can eliminate waste on orders and inventory with better data and more efficient workflows

Careers
Leaf Trade is seeking those who dare greatly to help them build the future of cannabis. We need big thinkers who aren’t afraid to be big doers. We’ve worked hard to create a supportive environment built on genuine respect, continuous learning, and curiosity. As we grow, we’re looking for people with a diverse range of experiences and a particular set of skills (if you’re Liam Neeson, don’t apply, that’s not the skill set we need).
