Cannabis Business Insurance in Los Angeles

Coverage for Licensed Cannabis Operators in Los Angeles

Los Angeles is the largest legal cannabis market in the world. Licensed retailers, delivery services, distributors, manufacturers and indoor cultivators across the city and county operate under state Department of Cannabis Control rules and local licensing, with landlords, lenders and regulators all asking for proof of insurance.


Callidus Insurance Solutions insures licensed cannabis businesses across Los Angeles County. We place property, inventory and crop, general and product liability, cargo and delivery, and workers' compensation coverage with carriers that write cannabis, and we help with the surety bond your state license requires. Already insured? Send us your declarations pages and loss runs 90 days before renewal and we will take your account to market.

🌿 Licensed Cannabis & Hemp Operations

We help cultivators, distributors, manufacturers, and dispensaries secure compliant, reliable coverage without the traditional market markup.

  • Harvested Goods & Inventory: High-value protection for harvested flower, biomass, trim, and finished retail inventory stored on site or in transit.
  • Extraction & Processing Liability: Specialized coverage for solvent and solventless extraction facilities using butane, CO2, or ethanol.
