On this episode I chatted with CEO of Stability Cannabis Denver Kitch. Denver grew up in Yukon and was a part of the very well known 2000's graduating class of Miller Baseball. Turning down a draft pick in Highschool he headed to OU with the hopes of turning Baseball into a career. Which he did until an injury and lack of love for the game brought him back to Oklahoma. Like most athletes who have committed themselves to one thing for so long he didn't know what to do when he returned. Fortunately getting into real estate helped channel his people skills into a successful business.
However, in late 2018 he and a past work colleague started talking about the Cannabis business. With the pending legality in Oklahoma Cannabis was a big business opportunity for investors. Denver already having an established real estate business didn't want to change careers but entertained the idea of investing. Life had other plans and quickly he saw himself as CEO of his own operation having built a fantastic team of business savvy Oklahomans, ready to opening their own grow operation. Fast forward three years and they sold half of the company at an 88million dollar valuation... Thats 44million after just 3 years for 50% of the business!
According to the Journal Record Denver is on the 2022 most admired CEO list and over the last three years Stability Cannabis has won award after award. https://journalrecord.com/2022/02/09/journal-record-announces-2022-most-admired-ceos/
Recognized for their companies business, employees, leadership etc. Their goal moving forward it to help more patients every year, as Oklahoma embraces the medical values of the plant moving forward. For more information on Stability Cannabis go to: www.stabilitycannabis.com
