We Know What Your Cannabis Company Needs

Licensing. Operations. Site Selection and beyond. Tenax Strategies is ready to position your cannabis business for sustained, long-term success, taking your project from concept to commence operations.

Let's Do It

Tenax Strategies has been a leader in cannabis consulting since day one.

In 2012, legalizing cannabis in Massachusetts was just an idea. But we made it a reality.


Our business consulting and public affairs leaders built and organized the Coalition for Responsible Patient Care, which passed with overwhelming support.


You're looking behind the curtain at the people who paved the way toward full legalization of cannabis and adult-use retail.


Since then, our team has been assisting cannabis entrepreneurs with establishing, licensing, and operating cannabis businesses for long-term success across the United States.


So, whether you’re an ambitious startup wanting to make their mark in the competitive cannabis landscape, or an already established business owner with an eye toward expansion,
book your consultation and let's take your business to the next level. 

So, what makes us different? We don't tell you what to do. We do it. 

Everything you need to open, establish, and run a profitable cannabis business? Consider it done when you work with us.


We handle everything from the pre and post-licensure process, site selection, compliance, community support, merger and acquisition compliance support, and more.


We've been in the cannabis consulting game for so long, we know how to foster support for your venture at the grassroots and all the way to the highest levels of state and local government.


No matter what type of cannabis company you wish to operate, we ensure that it's fully compliant, supported locally, and positioned for long-term growth.

“When you're in this industry, the most important thing you need to have is people who know how to get solutions quicker. Who can find ways around the obstacles out there and work in partnership with you. To get a win."
