Introducing the YGP logistics platform
Why a licensed transporter built its own app, and what it changes for the brands and stores on our routes.
Since July 2021, Your Green Package has moved cannabis for licensed businesses across Massachusetts. For the first years we ran routes the way most transporters do: emails to book a pickup, phone calls to find the driver, and paper manifests in a folder. It worked, but it put the busywork on our customers. So we built our own logistics platform, and in early 2024 we started moving brands and stores onto it.
Why we built it ourselves
Off-the-shelf delivery software isn’t made for licensed cannabis. Every package has a Metrc tag, every transfer needs a manifest, and the shipper, the driver and the store all need the same record. We wanted one place where all three see the same thing at the same time.
What it does
- Requests in a minute. Book a pickup and its drop-offs in the app. If the transfer is already in Metrc, import it instead of retyping it.
- Package checks at every stop. Drivers scan each package against the manifest at pickup and at the store, so a wrong tag is caught at the dock, not at the counter.
- Live tracking for both sides. The brand and the store watch the van and the stops ahead.
- Updates without calls. Push and email alerts at pickup, when the driver is close and at delivery.
- Receiving on the phone. The store scans, signs and keeps the digital manifest on file for a year.
What’s changed since
More than 250 retail locations have received deliveries through the app. In 2025 we connected directly to Metrc through its Massachusetts API, so manifests and package checks come straight from the state’s system. In 2026 we opened the YGP Marketplace on the same platform, so a wholesale order becomes a delivery without anyone retyping it, and we made every account work with Claude, ChatGPT and your own software.
What’s next
We’re building the work that happens after the delivery: consignment, invoice checks against Metrc, statements and sell-through reports. If you ship with us today, you already have an account. Log in at app.yourgreenpackage.com, or contact us to get started.
