Meet Scott Jennings | Investor & Entrepreneur

We had the good fortune of connecting with Scott Jennings and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Scott, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
Starting my own business stemmed from a desire to merge profit with purpose. As I started focusing on Impact Investing and health and wellness, the notion of generating positive returns while contributing positively to society resonated deeply with me. I’ve increasingly been prioritizing my health and simultaneously I’ve been witnessing individuals in my circle grappling with major ailments like insomnia, pain, anxiety and cancer. Cannabis was helping me and I recognized the potential benefits of cannabis providing relief for those around me. Many were hesitant to explore traditional cannabis consumption methods, such as smoking or indulging in sugary edibles. This recurring narrative served as the impetus behind the inception of Pantry. I was driven to create a solution that bridged the gap, providing customers with access to the therapeutic & medicinal properties of cannabis without compromising their health. At its core, Pantry strives to ensure that individuals do not have to compromise their well-being to harness the healing potential of cannabis.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?

Let me give you the scoop on Pantry and what makes us stand out?. We’re all about crafting small-batch, healthy edibles that solve major ailments that millions of Americans deal with on a daily basis. Think of us as a passionate group about plant medicine that wants to provide consumers a more effective solution that’s less harmful and addictive than current options on the market. The end result of this is improving customers & patients quality of life making them a better family member and member of society.

What am I most proud of? Knowing we’re making a positive impact on people’s lives. Hearing all the heartwarming stories from our customers keeps me going every day. 

Now, getting here wasn’t a walk in the park. We faced a lot of challenges, and still do, to put it lightly. But we rolled with the punches, adapted, and kept pushing forward. The key? Staying focused on our mission and being open to learning from every hurdle we faced.

As for what I want the world to know about us? We’re not just another brand. We prioritize people over profits at each decision we make.  We’re also a passionate group of professionals dedicated to helping our customers by pairing plant medicine with clean ingredients to help solve major consumer problems. The future of plant medicine is incredibly exciting and we look forward to helping more individuals one customer at a time.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.

The California coast and nature are pure magic. Seriously, there’s nothing quite like it!

So, here’s the deal: I’ve been playing host to loads of friends, family and business associates for ages now, and you know what I always do? First up, we hit a spot for some good, clean food. Then, it’s time to add a little Pantry edible into the mix and head to the beach. Boom! Instant recipe for the best day ever. I’m talking about feeling fresh from the inside out—eating clean, soaking up that nature vibe, and indulging in a Pantry edible to help take the pressure off that you feel like you have to be working all the time.

But wait, there’s more! I’m not just about lounging on the sand. Nope, I’m the friend who’ll drag you to a Hot Yoga class or an Orange Theory workout to get those endorphins flowing.

My healthy lifestyle actually convinced quite a few people to move to LA. I call it the great migration as more and more people look for a healthier lifestyle which Los Angeles and the beach promotes.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Shoutout to Paul Rosen a dear friend, mentor and my business partner in Pantry. Paul is one of the best human beings I’ve come across in my life and I’m extremely grateful to have someone like him in my personal and professional life. Also, those who know me, know how much Elon Musk has inspired me. Elon is probably the best example of taking on noble goals to improve society despite the how impossible or risky the path forward may be. Lastly, shoutout to my family who have always had my back.
