Bell2Bell Podcast featuring Zoned Properties Inc. (OTCQB: ZDPY) CEO Bryan McLaren

Thursday Apr 18, 2024
Bell2Bell’s latest podcast features Bryan McLaren, Chairman and CEO of Zoned Properties Inc. (OTCQB: ZDPY), a technology-driven property investment company focused on acquiring value-add real estate within the regulated cannabis industry.
To begin the interview, McLaren provided an introduction to Zoned Properties and its business model.
“Zoned Properties, based in Scottsdale, Arizona, is focused on real estate and the regulated cannabis industry. Zoned Properties is essentially a technology-driven property investment company. We look at state-by-state markets that have legalized and regulated cannabis – that's a huge emerging and growing industry.”
“Our company and our team go into these state marketplaces, and we identify, qualify and get these properties approved that can be utilized as regulated cannabis facilities. In the best-case scenario, what we're doing is securing a piece of retail real estate –an old bank, an old restaurant, an old quick service retail location – getting that property approved to be used as a cannabis site called a retail dispensary and leasing that property out to a third-party tenant with a cannabis license in that location under a long-term lease agreement.”
McLaren next discussed his background prior to joining Zoned Properties.
“I’ve been working in the regulated cannabis space as a real estate developer for 10 years now. There were only a couple of states with legalized cannabis back then. Now, we have 38 states in this country that have legalized either medical or full recreational adult use cannabis. We’ve come a long way in the past decade. Prior to that, I spent my early career focused on community development and real estate. I worked on many sustainable development projects, zero waste projects, wind turbines and solar field installations… It takes a lot of planning and organization on these very complex projects to get approvals. That experience translates perfectly into the regulated cannabis space.”

Jessie Liu-Ernsting, who has been with Aston Bay for several years now, has fantastic capital markets experience and decades in the business.

Dr. Nguyen, with his extensive medical background from esteemed institutions such as Stanford Medical School, UC Davis, and UC San Diego, shared how his experiences influence Astiva’s direction. “In my over 25 years of medical practice, I’ve realized that effective healthcare hinges largely on patient involvement. It's about active participation rather than passivity. At Astiva, we emphasize this in our care approach, leading to healthier lives and reduced medical costs. Leveraging technology and efficient operations as a startup, we've been able to reinvest savings into rich supplemental benefits for our members.”
