Production Associate - Packaging

At Lazy River Products, it is our mission to be recognized as the Commonwealth's premier fully integrated cannabis-based Product Development Company.
Our goal is to consistently deliver trusted small batch, craft quality products and exceptional service to our customers and the local communities for which we serve.
At our core we provide professional, compliant and socially responsible standards that raise the bar and will be the new definition for excellence in the Cannabis industry here in Massachusetts.
