"After attending a pest management meeting where several service providers expressed trepidation about working with the cannabis industry, Michael Kelley and Chris Freeman began to wonder how the auto industry was serving the needs of marijuana businesses.

The commercial account managers for Campbell Nelson Nissan researched transportation regulations for Washington’s marijuana market and realized that “no one was going after this industry,” Freeman says.

Campbell Commercial decided to fill that void by creating a commercial vehicle tailored to the cannabis industry. The outfitted vans are the first turn-key transportation solutions to meet the requirements of the Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board.

“We stepped out of our comfort zone to support your industry,” Freeman says.

The vehicle itself is a white 2016 Nissan NV1500 SV that looks just like the ubiquitous white work vans that are popular with builders, plumbers and electricians. The discreet van features a windowless cargo area and an interior shelving unit suitable for boxes or clones. A solid steel partition separates the driver from the cargo area, and strategically placed anchor points on the floor and walls make it simple to secure a load.

Some customers have asked whether the vans are being sold at “weed prices,” Freeman says. They’re not, he says, pointing out that the Nissan vans tend to be several thousand dollars cheaper than comparably equipped competitors.

The Nissan vans also come with a bumper-to-bumper warranty that covers everything on the van for the first five years or 100,000 miles. There are also leasing options available, which can be an attractive option for tax purposes. The Commercial TRAC lease has no mileage restrictions and no damage restrictions.

After a customer agrees to buy a van it takes about two weeks to outfit it. Campbell Nelson details the van and delivers it at no additional cost anywherehttps://www.marijuanaventure.com/tag/recreational/ in Washington with a full tank of gas."

Never thought of name change but certainly your suggestion would be a positive. Signal Bay as the name does no reflect what SGBY does where your suggestion would be very positive not to mention free PR and possibly interest as an investment.
