Kim Rivers was approached by a group of nursery owners, asking her to join a team they were calling Truelieve. She became the company’s CEO, and for the last nine years has been the key driver for the company’s customer-centric vision, strong growth, strategic expansion, and industry-leading profitability.

She was traveling the country meeting with cultivation operations to learn about the industry when she learned of a new opportunity in the industry: The concept of being a Multi-State Operator (MSO) had just started. There was a new level of scalability in the industry that had not been achieved effectively at that point. Rivers’ experience as an attorney – coupled with an early entrepreneurial background in real estate and the hospitality industry – prepared her for the unique and quickly evolving cannabis industry.
