CRAFT YOUR LEGACY
Exquisite Kitchen will be a shared-use cannabis manufacturing space in Oakland, California. Currently stated to be operational in Q1 2026, Exquisite Kitchen was designed for local Social Equity operators. We’re currently in the final stage of permitting and awaiting our last inspection from Alameda County Public Health. Once approved, we’ll announce our application window for new operators. Stay tuned.

ABOUT THE PROJECT
Exquisite Kitchen is owned by Women of Excellence, a group of Oakland Social Equity Operators. WOE was awarded a grant from the City to purchase and license a Type 6 Cannabis Manufacturing Kitchen. The facility will be licensed for non-volatile production, including edibles, drinks, and topicals as well as infused prerolls, vapes and solventless concentrates. Other Oakland Social Equity Operators will have an opportunity to apply to Exquisite Kitchen, and if accepted, empowered to manufacture products for their brands. Exquisite kitchen will provide affordable rent as well as guidance for and assistance with the manufacturing process.
BUILT FOR OAKLAND
Oakland residents have played a powerful role in shaping the history and culture of cannabis in California and beyond — often at great personal cost.
Exquisite Kitchen was created to ensure those same individuals have a place to reclaim what was lost, building a new legacy, one product at a time.
