CNA Stores: Cannabis, Community, and Claravita in Massachusetts

CNA Stores measures success in more than products sold or locations opened.

The veteran-owned, family-run Massachusetts cannabis company operates dispensaries in Amesbury and Haverhill, produces the Claravita product line, and has made community service a central part of its identity.

Sana Packaging first featured CNA Stores in August 2024, approximately one year after the companies began working together in June 2023.

This updated spotlight revisits that relationship, preserves the original packaging-impact information as a historical snapshot, and brings the community story through 2026.

A Veteran-Owned Cannabis Business in Massachusetts

CNA Stores operates cannabis dispensaries in Amesbury and Haverhill, Massachusetts.

The company is also involved in cultivation and manufacturing, allowing its team to participate in the process from growing cannabis through preparing products for retail.

CNA Stores describes its work through three core principles: quality, integrity, and commitment. Those principles extend beyond its products and stores to employee education, veteran support, community service, and local nonprofit partnerships.

Products, services, locations, and operating details may change. Visit the CNA Stores website for current information about the company and its dispensaries.

Claravita: Produced by CNA Stores in Amesbury

Claravita is a cannabis brand produced by CNA Stores in Amesbury, Massachusetts.

The brand offers cannabis flower and edibles manufactured through CNA Stores’ cultivation and production operations. Its product selection, strains, formats, and retail availability may change over time.

When Sana Packaging published the original spotlight in 2024, Claravita was using containers made from reclaimed ocean-bound plastic for selected products.

Packaging is one component of a finished cannabis product. The brand or license holder remains responsible for confirming that the complete container-and-closure configuration, label, product compatibility, and intended use meet the requirements applicable in each market.

A 2024 Packaging-Impact Snapshot

Sana Packaging began working with CNA Stores in June 2023.

At the time the original customer spotlight was published in August 2024, Sana Packaging’s records attributed more than 12,000 pounds of reclaimed ocean-bound plastic to packaging supplied through the relationship.

That figure should be understood as a dated impact metric, not a current cumulative total or a complete assessment of the environmental effects of CNA Stores, Claravita, or the finished packages.

Reclaimed ocean-bound plastic describes the source of the plastic used to manufacture the packaging. It does not establish that the complete package is recyclable in every community or that the package, product, or company satisfies a broader environmental standard.

Community Service in Amesbury and Haverhill

Community service has remained a significant part of the CNA Stores story.

In a June 2026 company update, CNA Stores reported that its Amesbury and Haverhill teams had completed nearly 3,500 volunteer hours since 2020.

The company described activities that included:

• Maintaining local veteran memorials
• Supporting food programs for veterans
• Cleaning up public areas
• Working with community organizations
• Helping seniors, veterans, and residents with disabilities during winter storms

These activities are separate from CNA Stores’ packaging decisions and should be evaluated according to their own records, dates, participants, and results.

The Snow Angels Program

One of CNA Stores’ most recognizable community initiatives is its Snow Angels program.

Through the program, employees and community volunteers help remove snow from the homes of seniors, veterans, and residents with disabilities in Amesbury and Haverhill.

Clearing driveways and walkways can help emergency responders, home health aides, grocery delivery drivers, and other essential service providers reach residents following a winter storm.

CNA Stores reported that the program continued during the 2025 and 2026 winter seasons.

Charity Jars and Local Nonprofit Support

CNA Stores also uses its dispensary Charity Jar program to introduce customers to local nonprofit organizations and encourage community contributions.

The original 2024 Sana Packaging spotlight reported that customers contributed $137,000 through the Charity Jar program during 2023. CNA Stores then matched that amount and distributed the matching funds as bonuses to hourly retail employees in early 2024, with reported bonuses ranging from $4,000 to $6,000 per employee.

Those figures describe a specific period and should not be interpreted as current annual amounts.

CNA Stores continues to publish information about its nonprofit partnerships, veteran initiatives, charitable contributions, and community programs on its website.

Packaging Is One Part of the Relationship

A customer relationship can involve more than containers, closures, artwork, order quantities, and delivery dates.

CNA Stores’ story includes its Claravita brand, its connection to Amesbury and Haverhill, its veteran-owned identity, and its ongoing community programs.

The 2024 packaging-impact snapshot provides one documented part of that story. CNA Stores’ current community reporting provides another.
