The growth teamFlorida brandshire for traction.
Hands-on placement for hemp, kava, and functional beverage brands. We don't consult — we walk into the room with the case in hand.
The founder
Mike Sutherland
Founder · Tampa, Florida
Built from the ground up with direct roots in hemp, kava, and wellness retail across Florida. Deep relationships across independent shops, chain buyers, and distributors — statewide.
No middlemen. No gatekeepers. Boots-on-the-ground execution that takes a brand from unknown to unavoidable — Tampa to the Panhandle, Miami to the Space Coast.
The model: monthly retainer plus commission on net wholesale. Our incentives stay rooted in your growth — if your product doesn't sell through, we don't earn.
What makes us different
Three things only we do.
Not another consultant deck. Not another email blast. The work that turns a placement into a permanent listing.
Boots on ground. Data behind it.
Monthly retainer plus commission on net wholesale. Field reps log every visit. Weekly briefings instead of monthly spreadsheets.
Reorders. Velocity. Sticking.
Sustainable Florida revenue. Not just placements — depletion alerts, account management, and the relationship that keeps you on the menu.
