A family idea that became Bloom.
Bloom started in 2014 as a family business. Siblings Nicole Stark and Will Hollander shared a deep-rooted love for cannabis and a belief that it could be a force for good, and they set out to build a company that would raise the standard for how cannabis is sold.
They brought in two people they trusted. Their father, Nate Hollander, had spent a long career in medical equipment sales, and he brought a focus on quality and on the patients Bloom serves. Peter Turco, a longtime family friend and lawyer, gave the team the legal foundation to build in a new and closely regulated industry.
Will's entrepreneurial drive and Nicole's business leadership shaped how Bloom grew. In 2018 the family opened its Maryland dispensary in Germantown, then known as Bloom Medicinals and today simply Bloom. In 2019 Bloom began serving Ohio, and it now has seven Ohio dispensaries, with North Columbus on the way.
From the first store to the newest, the idea hasn't changed: a cannabis dispensary should be simple, welcoming and consistent, wherever you shop. We call that Cannabis Done Right.
What we stand for.
Our mission is to be the most trusted cannabis destination, setting the standard for quality, service and community impact, and proving every day what it means to do Cannabis Done Right.
Five values have guided Bloom from the beginning: Respect, Integrity, Growth, Hard work and Teamwork. Together they spell RIGHT, and they shape every decision, every product on our shelves and every conversation at the counter.
They start with our own people. We want Bloom to be a place where passion, professionalism and personal development thrive, because a team that is looked after looks after every customer and patient who walks through the door.
- RespectA workplace built on mutual respect, where every voice is valued and every contribution counts.
- IntegrityHonesty and the highest standards, in every store and every decision.
- GrowthWe invest in our team's personal and professional growth, with real room to advance.
- Hard workWe recognize and reward hard work, and a team that takes pride in getting it right.
- TeamworkStrong connections and working together, for our customers and our communities.
