Medical cannabis dispensary
Business Description:
Vibez is a Black woman-owned, licensed medical cannabis delivery service based in Washington, D.C. Our mission is to provide safe, convenient, and reliable access to high-quality cannabis products, especially for patients who prefer or require home delivery. We are focused on empowering underserved communities through wellness, education, and culturally rooted service.
Business Model:
Vibez operates under Washington, D.C.’s medical cannabis laws as a delivery-only dispensary. We do not operate a physical retail storefront—instead, we fulfill medical cannabis orders through a secure online platform and deliver directly to patients across the city. Our revenue is generated through:
- Direct-to-patient delivery: Fast, discreet, and compliant medical cannabis delivery
- Pop-up & Event Engagement: Presence at events like the National Cannabis Festival (NCF) to educate and build community (no sales conducted onsite without specific licensing, but used for brand awareness and outreach)
- Branded Products: We aim to develop a small line of branded pre-rolls and CBD/THC wellness blends for delivery customers
Target Customers:
- Registered medical cannabis patients in Washington, D.C. (Residents or Visitors)
- Seniors, busy professionals, and patients with mobility issues who need delivery access
- Wellness-focused individuals seeking discreet service and personalized product selection
- Women, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ consumers looking for inclusive care and trusted brands
Team:
- Founder/CEO – Tahany Hassan: A community-driven entrepreneur with experience in business development and a deep commitment to equity in the cannabis space
- Legal & Compliance Partners: We work with D.C.-based legal advisors to maintain full compliance with delivery-specific rules
- Operations Support (Future Roles): Drivers, dispatch support, and compliance assistants as we scale operations
Credentials & Compliance:

Social Impact Commitment:
Vibez is committed to social equity in cannabis. We prioritize hiring from marginalized communities, offering second-chance employment, and creating educational content to help patients make informed choices. Our mission goes beyond profit—we strive to bring healing and opportunity where it’s needed most.
