Zip Run, the Massachusettes based social equity company is building a state-of-the-art e-commerce platform for cannabis. The company plans to launch a one-stop-shop delivery and pick-up service beginning in the Boston area. Zip Run’s mission is to provide cannabis safely, legally, and efficiently to their customers while employing, empowering, and enlightening their local communities in Massachusetts and beyond.
Founded in January 2020 with the mindset of helping to create an equitable space within the cannabis delivery market. The creation of Zip Run is more than a technology platform that facilitates delivery, but a company formed to support people from disproportionate areas in Massachusetts to prevent the continuation of an inequitable status quo.
Zip Run will offer technology services at a subsidized cost or competitive pricing relative to other software players in the space. They will also be the only software provider that provides a one-stop-shop vertically integrated software solution for Massachusetts’ cannabis delivery space.
Co-founder & CEO Gabriel Vieira is confident Zip Run has created a one-stop-shop delivery and pick-up service that will be beneficial for social equity applicants and dispensaries alike. He also shares, “Zip Run was explicitly designed to support social equity members gain ownership and help dispensaries expand their consumer reach.”
The platform allows retailers to continue business as usual while expanding their reach with adult-use delivery/pick-up. The founders’ mission is to provide cannabis safely, legally, and efficiently to customers while employing, empowering, and enlightening their local communities.

Zip Run is the only social equity company that has built e-commerce that will not only support their licensed delivery company but will also allow other social equity companies with delivery courier licenses to use their platform.
“Our ultimate goal is to build a leading-edge e-commerce platform that can support other social equity members, empower the local community in gaining ownership in the uprising cannabis industry, and provide jobs within a wide variety of fields and career paths,” says Elis Omoroghomwan, co-founder and Chief Growth Officer of Zip Run. Those paths include not only tech but operations and marketing as well.
