Redemption is a Lansing, Michigan cannabis brand founded by CEO and activist Ryan Basore. His cannabis journey began in 2009, when he operated caregiver grows and cannabis businesses following Michigan's medical cannabis legislation. After federal law enforcement raided his state compliant operation in 2010, Basore served four years in federal prison. He later returned to cannabis advocacy and helped launch the Michigan Cannabis Industry Association before supporting Michigan's 2018 adult use legalization effort.
Today, Redemption offers full flower, pre rolls, 100% live resin cartridges, disposable live resin vapes, concentrates, and full spectrum RSO. Its mission also extends beyond cannabis products. Redemption donates 10% of its gross proceeds to The Redemption Foundation, which supports people affected by cannabis prohibition through programs such as expungement clinics, prisoner commissary support, re entry training, and family assistance.
