Description

Business Leadership for the nation's fastest growing industry. Having raised $28 million in the nation's most expensive reform effort, co-founders James M. Gould and Ian James built Green Light Acquisitions, LLC (GLA) to be a premier vertically integrated asset holding company focused on maximizing business performance and value of the growing Hemp CBD market. GLA charges no management fees while leveraging their core strengths with over 60 years of combined experience. Mr. Gould helped take Build-a-Bear public to become a $600 million plus publicly traded company. Mr. James is globally known for his work with branding and marketing industry. GLA was formed as a holding company to allow our partners to participate in that pioneered Hemp CBD efforts. Our systems for monitoring and networking within the industry allow GLA to identify and secure opportunities to provide debt financing (secured by collateral of real property and/or other hard assets) to existing licensed operators while securing a strong equity position from the license holder. When equity isn’t available by law, GLA will structure the deal to ensure long-term returns from guaranteed lease payments that will closely mirror the financial gains of an equity position. This allows GLA to gain a strong foothold in regionally when and where it makes strategic sense. In doing so, GLA provides its portfolio partners, vendors and staff a value added proposition that will allow all to grow and profit long into the future.
