The story behind Stori

We are on the mission to normalize cannabis and to bring you the best high. Cannabis experience is personal and it depends on dosage, set, and setting. Retail packaging could not provide information about effects and tracking it on post-it notes can be messy. We built Stori to keep your stash safe, look great on display, and make it easier to track your strains and their effects on you.

How it started

It all started in 2018 when our co-founders, Karina and Afshin, embraced cannabis legalization by buying a variety of products to try. They quickly noticed that all these products came with excessive plastic packaging that neither looked good nor were suitable for long-term storage.

“We have a bar cart for our alcohol and wine rack for our wine, but our cannabis collection was a mess and not worthy of display.“

They also quickly realized that different products work differently for every person depending on how much you take, how your body metabolizes cannabis, and whether you take it at home, or out at a party.

As Karina and Afshin set out to discover which products worked for them, they understood that keeping track of them all was nearly impossible. They came up with a solution, one that helps store cannabis properly, tracks its effects, and looks beautiful.

Designed with purpose

In 2020, after 2 years of research, prototyping, and testing, Stori was born. Our Stori Pods and Tubes are made from high quality food-safe aluminum that’s both recyclable and made to last. Our case is child proof and doubles as a rolling tray. This balance of functionality, sustainability and easthetic made Stori a Gold Winner of Muse Design Award in 2021.

Today, thousands of our customers use Stori to store variety of different products (i.e. flower, edibles, pre-rolls, capsules, etc) and track their collections and preferences.
