In the competitive world of cannabis, The Bettering Company distinguishes itself through its dedication to creating superior edibles and fostering a positive impact on society. This Chicago-based enterprise has been leading the way in redefining what cannabis edibles can be and can offer, focusing on health benefits, creativity enhancement, and social responsibility.
Foundations Of Excellence
The journey of The Bettering Company began with a simple yet profound realization about the potential of cannabis to offer healthier alternatives to alcohol. Co-founder Mark Cozzi‘s inspiration sparked from a conversation in New York City with a close friend, a board-certified oncologist. This, coupled with an unforgettable experience with THC-infused chocolate, set the foundation for their mission: to produce the finest THC-infused edibles, according to The Bettering Company’s website.
Cannabis And Creativity: A Symbiotic Relationship
Central to the company’s ethos is understanding how cannabis can enhance creative thinking. As mentioned on the company’s website, THC’s interaction with the brain’s endocannabinoid system enhances sensory perception. It promotes a type of thinking that generates many ideas and solutions. The Bettering Company embraces this by crafting edibles that support sustained periods of creativity and introspection, offering a unique avenue for artists and creators to explore new dimensions of their work.

Dedication To Precision
Precision in production is at the heart of The Bettering Company’s success. In a conversation with Benzinga, Cozzi highlighted the company’s approach: “The Bettering Company’s edible recipes are chef-crafted and use real fruits, herbs, teas, spices, and jams that are always consistently infused.” This attention to detail in ingredient selection and product consistency has helped secure $11 million in funding, even as the cannabis industry faces financial challenges.
Broadening The Reach
The Bettering Company’s edibles are already a favorite in over 40 dispensaries across Illinois, and there are plans for expansion into New Jersey, New York, and Ohio. These steps forward reflect the company’s ambition to share its high-quality, luxury edibles with a broader audience despite the hurdles posed by current federal cannabis laws.
What’s Next?
Looking at 2024 thus far, The Bettering Company has introduced chocolate edibles and CBD-only products, expanding its product line to cater to diverse consumer preferences. But they’re not stopping there. “We have a few great partnerships in the pipeline that we’re excited to announce,” Cozzi shared.
As The Bettering Company moves forward, its founding principles of improving products, workplaces, and communities guide its path. Its commitment to quality, creativity, and social responsibility continues to lead by example, showing that it’s possible to do well by doing good. In crafting its luxury cannabis edibles, The Bettering Company remains devoted to its mission of always striving for better—for its customers, its employees, and the wider community.
