Arshad Lasi is one of the youngest CEOs in one of the nation’s youngest industries.
In less than three years of non-stop juggling work and college life, Arshad, the 22- year-old CEO of Oklahoma based The Nirvana Group, has grown one small tobacco shop into the largest vertically integrated cannabis company in the state complete with 7 medical dispensaries, the state’s only Cash and Carry wholesaler for cannabis, cultivation, extraction, and processing facilities, house consumer brands and more. The son of two small business owners, entrepreneurship is in Arshad’s blood.
Working with his parents, Arshad used his savviness, ambition and enthusiasm to bring a small family business to the forefront of a constantly evolving industry, all while studying undergrad at the University of Houston.
