During the CWBC Expo, Cannabiz was in full force! High Times caught up with our leading ladies of TribeTokes, Kym B & Degelis Tufts!
Read an excerpt of their interview below!
What: TribeTokes, a line of vape cartridges, user-friendly batteries and accessories and Tribe Revive / Tribe Beauty, featuring pain relief and beauty products
Who: Degelis a.k.a. Dege Tufts (CEO) and Kymberly Byrnes (CMO)
Where: New York City
“We’re a very mindful fit and lit company,” Kym explained at an interview in their breezy, bright Chelsea showroom just a bong’s throw from the Highline. “We are for the conscious consumer and we definitely take a more wellness and holistic approach to our products.” I became aware of Dege (pronounced de-ja, like déjà vu) and Kym through the Expo. They are driven to increase the public’s access to CBD and cater to a high market. Ahem. But seriously.
“Our brand bridges the gap between the cannabis and the professional community. We consume for both recreational and medicial purposes, and we are also business owners,” explained Dege. “Kym is a fitness instructor, we meditate and do yoga and we care about our health and that’s where a lot of people are finding themselves right now, that they don’t fit one stereotype or the other.”
“We’re a lifestyle brand,” Kym adds. “We fit people who are into a quality lifestyle product that makes them look and feel good.”
