Oregon Cannabis Compliance Consulting
Know the standard.
Meet the standard.
Keep it.
Verity Cannabis Compliance provides professional OAR 845-025 compliance consulting for Oregon cannabis retailers — mock inspections, Metrc audits, SOP development, and ongoing compliance protection. Before OLCC arrives, we already have.
The Compliance Reality
OLCC can walk through your door any day you are open.
Oregon's cannabis compliance landscape is one of the most demanding regulatory environments in any industry. The OLCC inspects without advance notice, has real-time read access to your Metrc account around the clock, and enforces violations that compound with every repeat offense.
Most dispensary operators are excellent at running their business. Compliance is a different discipline — one that requires knowing OAR 845-025 at a level of precision that goes far beyond what any operator can maintain while also running a retail operation.
"The dispensaries that get cited aren't operating carelessly. They're operating without a professional compliance system — and they don't find out until OLCC tells them."
Verity exists because every Oregon cannabis retailer deserves the same level of compliance protection that large multi-state operators build internally. We bring that system to single-location dispensaries and growing groups alike — at a cost that is a fraction of one OLCC fine.
Category I Violation (Critical)
$5,000–$25,000
Per violation, first offense. Minor access, significant diversion, operating without a license. Can trigger immediate suspension proceedings.
Category II Violation (Major)
$500–$5,000
Expired employee permit, Metrc discrepancy, security failure. Repeat violations cost 5–10× more.
Guardian Monthly Retainer
Quarterly mock inspections, monthly Metrc review, permit tracking, regulatory monitoring, and unlimited consultation — all for less than one Category II violation.
Who We Are
Compliance expertise built on operational discipline.
Verity Cannabis Compliance was founded by a compliance professional with deep roots in Oregon's most rigorously regulated industries. That background — building compliance systems, preparing facilities for unannounced inspections, managing corrective action processes, and training staff to perform under regulatory scrutiny — translates directly into cannabis compliance consulting that operates at a professional level most operators have never seen.
We know how regulators think. We know how inspectors work. And we know how to build the systems, procedures, and habits that make an OLCC inspection an unremarkable event rather than a crisis.
Verity is not a directory, a software platform, or a generic consulting firm. We are a professional compliance practice, and every client engagement is treated as the serious compliance relationship it is.
Accurate
Every finding is cited to a specific OAR rule. Every recommendation is specific and actionable.
Reliable
We show up on time, deliver when promised, and tell you the truth — even when it's uncomfortable.
True
Verity means fundamental truth. Our assessments are not softened for comfort. They reflect what OLCC would actually find.
Professional
Every engagement produces written documentation, OAR citations, and professional deliverables — not informal advice.

Not sure where to start? Most clients begin with a Foundation mock inspection. It gives you a precise picture of where you stand — and the findings naturally show you what services you need next. Contact us to schedule your first inspection and we will handle the rest.
The Financial Case
One compliance retainer costs less than one violation.
Oregon's civil penalty structure is progressive — the same violation committed twice costs 5–10 times more than the first offense. A Category II violation that starts at $500 becomes $5,000 the second time. A Category I violation can reach $25,000 or more, and can trigger license suspension proceedings that mean days or weeks of closed operations.
A week of closed operations can cost more than a year of compliance consulting.
The Guardian retainer provides quarterly mock inspections, monthly Metrc monitoring, permit tracking, regulatory updates, and unlimited consultation. The alternative is discovering your compliance gaps when OLCC documents them — with fines, enforcement history, and the compounding cost of every future violation.
Verity clients know what OLCC will find before OLCC arrives. That is what the investment pays for.
Get Started
Ready to know where you actually stand?
The first step is a conversation. Tell us about your operation — how long you've been licensed, whether you've had an OLCC inspection, and what keeps you up at night from a compliance standpoint. We'll recommend the right starting point and give you an honest picture of what a professional compliance program looks like for your specific situation.
Serving cannabis retailers throughout Oregon — Portland, Eugene, Bend, Salem, Medford, and statewide.
