Humboldt County is seeking proposals from a qualified Humboldt County-based entity to work with County staff and leadership to develop a distinct national and industry “branding initiative” for Humboldt County grown cannabis and cannabis-related products and services. Collaborations with out of area agencies are acceptable, however, the contracting agency needs to be a local entity, defined by having a local office and staff. The selected proposer will serve as the County of Humboldt’s lead contracted agency for cannabis marketing initiatives and will provide a broad range of professional marketing services, including promotion of  Humboldt County Cannabis as a unique, high quality product sourced solely in Humboldt County. The successful proposer will utilize and employ recommendations and findings of the Humboldt County Marketing Assessment and will also provide recommendations for a county-wide stamp, terroir or place of origin program.
