Industry
Cannabis Processing and Manufacturing: New York White-Label Processor
Challenge
High End Processing manages multi-stage oil extraction and distillation for national cannabis brands, requiring precise batch-level traceability from raw biomass through crude oil, distillate, and final formulation. Manual production tracking across these stages consumed hours, introduced compliance risk, and couldn't scale with the operation's growing client roster. When the state Metrc came online, fully adopting Flourish was non-negotiable.

Cannabis Seed-to-Sale Software: Flourish's Manufacturing Module
Results
- Reduced manual production tracking from hours to minutes across multi-stage extraction workflows
- Achieved audit-ready traceability from raw biomass input through finished oil output
- Gained clear visibility into each stage of extraction and distillation across concurrent client batches
- Seamless Metrc compliance as New York transitioned onto its track-and-trace system
“Flourish makes it easy to track every step of production without slowing us down. It’s helped us save time and stay compliant as we scale.”
How High End Processing Tracks Multi-Stage Oil Extraction for National Brands with Flourish
High End Processing's roots in extraction go deeper than most New York cannabis operators. CEO Jeff Luciano launched the company's hemp processing operation in Spencer, New York in 2018, building what was at the time planned to be the state's largest industrial hemp refinery, designed around supercritical CO2 extraction and fractional distillation, producing full-spectrum extracts and CBD isolates at scale.
When New York opened adult-use cannabis licensing, High End Processing brought the same extraction infrastructure, process discipline, and refinery-scale thinking into the regulated cannabis market. Today, they operate as a licensed processor and cultivator, specializing in white-label oil production for established cannabis brands, including BLOOM, one of the top-selling vape brands in the country, with a presence across multiple states.
The operation is led by Jeff Luciano and Vice President Nancy Murray from their Spencer, NY facility.
The Manufacturing Challenge: Tracking Oil Through Multi-Stage Processing
White-label cannabis oil production isn't a single-step operation. Raw flower or biomass enters the facility, goes through extraction to produce crude oil, then moves through winterization, distillation, and formulation before it's ready to fill cartridges or be packaged for a client brand. Each stage produces distinct intermediate products, each with its own yield data, input-output ratios, and compliance requirements.
When you're running these workflows for multiple client brands simultaneously, each with their own specifications, formulations, and quality standards, the recordkeeping demands multiply. Manual tracking across spreadsheets and paper logs was consuming hours of production time, introducing opportunities for error, and making audit preparation a scramble.
Furthermore, Metrc requires labeling with the Metrc Retail ID. Label accuracy is critical when processing for multiple brands, and Flourish streamlines these workflows.
High End Processing needed manufacturing software built for this exact workflow — multi-stage production tracking with batch-level traceability across concurrent client jobs.
What Flourish Delivers for High End Processing
Multi-stage manufacturing run tracking. Flourish's manufacturing module maps directly to High End Processing's extraction workflow. Each processing stage (grinding, extraction, winterization, distillation, formulation) is captured as a discrete manufacturing run with precise input quantities, output yields, and waste documentation. This gives Jeff's team a clear, auditable chain of custody from raw biomass to finished oil without maintaining parallel spreadsheets.
Batch-level traceability across concurrent client jobs. When you're producing oil for multiple brands under the same roof, keeping batches clean and traceable is non-negotiable. Flourish maintains distinct batch lineage for each client's production runs, so High End Processing can demonstrate exactly which inputs went into which outputs. This is a requirement for both regulatory compliance and client trust.
Real-time production visibility. Instead of reconstructing what happened in the extraction lab at the end of a shift, Flourish captures production data as it happens. Jeff and Nancy can see where every batch stands in the process at any moment, which helps coordinate extraction schedules across multiple client deadlines.
Metrc compliance readiness. As New York transitions to Metrc, High End Processing's manufacturing records in Flourish will flow directly into the state's new track-and-trace system. The processing jobs and batch data they're already capturing are structured for Metrc's reporting requirements, so the compliance transition won't require a workflow overhaul.
The Difference It Makes
For a white-label processor, your clients' brands ride on your operational accuracy. Every oil batch used in a BLOOM cartridge or any other client's product must be traceable, compliant, and produced to exact specifications. Flourish gives High End Processing the manufacturing infrastructure to deliver that level of precision while keeping pace with production demands. Compliance is simply built into the workflow.
