Consignment for cannabis brands: how it works on the YGP Marketplace
Get on more shelves without asking stores to pay up front, and see every count and settlement.
Consignment lets a store take your product without paying up front and pay only for what sells. It’s one of the fastest ways for a brand to get onto a new shelf, and one of the easiest to lose track of. On the YGP Marketplace, the platform keeps the record for both sides.
How it works
- You choose the stores. Consignment is switched on store by store, with the terms you set.
- Product is delivered. It arrives on a normal YGP route with a Metrc manifest, and the store doesn’t pay up front.
- The store counts on a schedule. Weekly, every 14 days or every 30 days, the store counts what’s left.
- One settlement. The platform works out what sold and sends one settlement invoice. Unsold units come back to you on a normal pickup.
What you see
Every count, every settlement and every return, store by store. If a count looks wrong, you can ask for a recount before anything is invoiced.
When it’s a good fit
- A new product a store wants to try before committing
- A store you want on your shelf list that won’t take the risk of a full order
- Slow movers you’d rather keep on a shelf than in a vault
