Missouri Cannabis CPA merges with West Coast firm

Missouri Cannabis CPA, owned by Tiffani Higgins, merges with Indiva Advisors LLP, a West Coast based full-service CPA firm.

The acquisition was effective June 24. 

Indiva Advisors calls acquisition, which was effective June 24, a, “strategic alliance that will drive growth for Indiva Advisors in the developing Midwest marijuana economy.”

“We are beyond excited for this merger,” said Indiva Advisors Managing Partner, Jessica Velazquez. “Expanding into this emerging market and joining forces with Tiffani Higgins opens up incredible opportunities for our firm and our clients. My passion from day one has been to reach businesses of all sizes across the US and this puts us closer to that goal.”

For her part, Higgins has built her brand over the last few years while being based out of a market in which there was no legal marijuana market and hemp was extremely restricted. 

“I am so excited to partner with Indiva Advisors,” said Tiffani Higgins, CEO of Missouri Cannabis CPA. “We can help new Missouri businesses get started in the cannabis space and provide them with the top-tier support that larger companies already receive.”

The merger comes on the back of a boom to the cannabis economy of Missouri as medical marijuana was legalized in November 2018, and Missouri’s hemp market sits on the cusp of huge growth following the passage of the federal farm bill in congress at the end of 2018, and the signing of the omnibus agriculture bill that passed the legislature by the acting governor.

The Missouri legislation becomes effective August 28.
