Key Account Manager

In 2015, Cannatron was created under the name Ooze Wholesale. It all began with a goal; to increase access, lower costs, and improve safety measures on all sorts of cannabis accessories. With this goal in mind, the Ooze vape battery was born. Since the start of the Ooze brand, our product line has evolved to provide our customers with high-quality cannabis accessories in every category. We strive to design unique products that are simple enough for new users to master that will still catch the eye of our most seasoned veterans. From our signature vape pens to silicone bongs, bowls, and rigs, to smell-proof accessories and rolling trays, we truly do it all. We promise to never create a product we wouldn’t use ourselves!

OozeX is the next logical step for the evolution of Ooze. We are experts in our field, and with the massive success of our Slim Twist Vape Pen, a line of premium concentrates at an affordable price point just makes sense. Our customers trust us for quality and approachability when it comes to hardware, and OozeX will translate that same expertise with our extracts. Through our messaging and price points, we intend to make concentrates an accessible option for novice and veteran users alike.
