Rivamo - Model Operation for the Regulated Cannabis Market in Switzerland
Rivamo was founded with the goal of demonstrating that a regulated cannabis market can function responsibly, promote health, and provide legal certainty.
As the operator of the ongoing pilot project in the Canton of Zurich, we have built the necessary structures, processes, and partnerships to operate as a licensed provider under national regulation. Our operation is not a promise - it is proven, everyday practice.
Our Mission
We want to show that regulated cannabis distribution is possible: without grey areas, with clear rules, with a focus on health protection, and with full transparency toward authorities and the public.
What We Deliver

3 Swiss Cannabis Centers, pharmacy network, app
