Felicity Chen

Co-Founder and CEO of Potli

Potli was started by two Asian American best friends with a passion for exciting, artisanal products and the benefits of cannabis. The brand draws on its founders' roots in both holistic and eastern medicine, as well as their California upbringing to create delicious and intentional staples including things like their cannabis-infused Sriracha. Potli all started with the honey itself. Their honey is farmed in hives on Felicity’s property in partnership with a multi-generational beekeeper who has been passionate about beekeeping for the past 30 years. Cannabis-infused honey was a product originally made for Felicity’s mom, an asthma patient and a first generation immigrant who has been deterred by the negative reputation of cannabis from exploring its health benefits. With her in mind, Potli set out to craft a product you could trust, where quality or dosage was undoubtedly clear and apparent. In this interview, Felicity shares her experience in entering the cannabis industry, breaking cultural barriers, and what diversity means to her. Learn why we are proud to carry Potli at Harborside.
