Real operators. Real experience. Ready to build with you.
Let’s walk through it together
-
Navigating cannabis licensing and municipal approvals can be one of the hardest parts of the process. We help you build a clear strategy, work through local requirements, and move your application forward—because we’ve been through it ourselves.
-
From architects and security to POS systems and technology, there are a lot of moving pieces between getting approved and opening your doors. We help coordinate the process, avoid costly mistakes, and make sure what you’re building actually works operationally.
-
Opening day shouldn’t be the first time your operation gets tested. We help build your SOPs, inventory systems, POS, workflows, and training program so your team is ready to operate confidently from day one.
-
Getting open is only the beginning. We help operators understand their numbers, improve margins, refine purchasing and inventory, strengthen marketing, and build better systems as the business grows.
Who we are
In 1882, a fire swept through Haverhill, Massachusetts, leaving only one building standing.
That very building is now home to Stem Dispensary and the future Stem Upstairs lounge—our flagship operations and living proof of resilience, vision, and community-building.
At 1882 Consulting, we bring the same spirit to our clients: helping cannabis businesses grow with strategy, creativity, and grit.
Caroline Pineau specializes in marketing, social media, and navigating the licensing process at both state and local levels—gaining municipality support and building brands that resonate.
Adam Pineau brings a strong technology and operations background—guiding clients on POS design, security implementation, and workflows that make businesses compliant and efficient.
