The collection agency built for the cannabis industry. Dispensaries and retailers that won't pay. Distributors that disappear. Cash-heavy debtors and banks that won't help. We recover cannabis trade debt in every legal state — with lawsuits, attachments and receiverships, not phone calls.
We speak the language
Generic agencies don't know what a METRC manifest is, don't understand why a distributor's license status matters, and won't touch a cannabis file. We've spent years recovering cannabis trade credit — from single invoices to multi-state AR books worth millions. We prove delivery from track-and-trace records. We read a retailer's license, ownership and regulatory exposure and turn it into leverage. And we know the retailer who "never received the product" usually accepted it in METRC six months ago.
Who we collect for
- Brands and manufacturers owed by dispensaries and retailers
- Cultivators owed by distributors, manufacturers and brands
- Distributors owed by retail accounts
- Ancillary vendors — packaging, labs, equipment, software
- Receivers, assignees and AR buyers holding cannabis paper
How we get cannabis debtors to pay
- Demand built like a complaint — goods sold and delivered, account stated, open book account, breach of contract — with invoices and manifests attached.
- Suit, then attachment. Licensed counsel files; where allowed we seek a writ of attachment against bank accounts, receivables and inventory before judgment.
- Default judgment. Cannabis debtors ignore lawsuits at a remarkable rate. We take the default and enforce it.
- Receivership. When a retailer is insolvent and the owners are stripping it, we ask the court to appoint a receiver.
Excuses we've already beaten
- "We never received the product." (METRC says otherwise.)
- "It was seized / rejected." (Months after acceptance.)
- "We only deal with the distributor."
- "We're restructuring — get in line."
- "Sue us, we don't have anything." (Then we attach it.)
Every legal state: CA, MI, NV, CO, WA, OR, AZ, IL, MA, NY, NJ, MO, OH, MD, FL and the rest. Multi-state portfolios welcome.

FAQ
Can cannabis debt be collected in court? Yes. Courts in legal states routinely enforce contracts between licensed cannabis businesses. The key is clean evidence and moving fast.
The retailer is about to go under. Usually not too late — a failing dispensary still has inventory, cash and a license with value. Attachment and receivership exist for exactly this. Upload the invoice today.
Do you buy cannabis receivables? Sometimes. Assignment to a Delta Filings entity can let us pursue remedies — including receivership — in our own name. Ask when you place the account.
