Recognized as the Best Dispensary to Work for in California for the third consecutive year, Schaaf is most proud and inspires him to expand from two to five more stores this year, including in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles. A second location is currently open in Eagle Rock, Los Angeles. "Our entire team at Velvet shows up to serve our customers every single day," he says. "We work hard to recruit, hire, train, and develop great employees who, in turn, deliver that great Velvet customer experience." Having a knowledgeable and friendly staff is just the beginning of the Velvet experience. Its store is also ideally located near the Benicia-Martinez Bridge in Martinez, where parking is never a problem, products are "grade A," and the products are organized by categories and displayed on a tablet to scroll and shop. Customers can also score with a loyalty program. Shop more, save more, and watch your points stack," he adds. Schaaf says security makes the shopping experience feel safe, too.
