FAQ

Questions buyers ask

How do I carry Sauce in my dispensary?
Start on the wholesale page and submit the apply form with your license type and market. Qualified buyers hear back within two business days, and we route you to your state's licensed distributor — or to LeafLink/Nabis where available — for the fastest path to shelf.
Does Sauce sell direct or through distributors?
Both, depending on the state. In most markets you order through a licensed distributor or on LeafLink/Nabis; in newer markets we open the lane more directly. See how it works on the distribution page, then apply and we'll point you to the right route for your region.
What are the four Sauce product lines?
One lineup, four shelves: Sauce Essentials — strain-specific live-resin all-in-one and our flagship; Sauce ONE — the patented all-in-one device and pod ecosystem; Sauce Classics — distillate AIO at an accessible everyday price; and Sauce Smokes — infused and classic pre-rolls with a perfect burn. Browse them all on the products page.
Which states is Sauce available in?
Sauce is active across five licensed U.S. state markets, including California where the brand was founded in 2021. Dedicated state pages cover California, Oregon, Colorado, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and New York. The full, current picture lives on the markets page.
What makes Sauce ONE different from other vape hardware?
Sauce ONE is a patented all-in-one device and pod ecosystem — the 'Trinity' platform that brings battery, dry herb, concentrate, and pod onto a single architecture. It's engineered in-house, never white-labeled, which makes it a hardware moat your shelf owns rather than the brand next to it. Specs are on the Sauce ONE page.
What are the wholesale minimums and margins?
Terms vary by state and distributor. Submit the apply form on the wholesale page with your market, and we'll share current wholesale pricing, minimum order quantities, and margin structure for your region.
Can I license or partner with Sauce in a new region?
Yes. Sauce expands through one serious partner per market via licensing and distribution partnerships. If you operate a licensed cannabis business and want to bring Sauce to your region, start on the licensing page or reach us at info@svjbrands.com.
Is Sauce expanding internationally?
Yes — methodically, market by market, toward the vision of building the Apple of cannabis, one country at a time. Canada and Germany are launching in 2026 and Australia in early 2027, with further markets targeted across 2027. Timelines and the country roadmap are on the international page; qualified partners can reach us at info@svjbrands.com.
How does Sauce handle testing and compliance?
Every batch is lab-tested with a Certificate of Analysis (COA), and the brand operates with licensed-market discipline across the board — formulation, hardware, and manufacturing held to one standard, batch to batch. It's the kind of program your compliance team and your inspector never have to ask about twice.
Where can consumers buy Sauce?
Shoppers should head to our consumer brand site, sauceessentials.com, and use the store locator to find Sauce at a licensed retailer near them, where legal. This site is for wholesale and partnership inquiries.
