You can find Viola Extracts’ resin, wax and shatter at 20 dispensaries across Colorado and Oregon. Albert, “Al,” Harrington is also getting started in the booming CBD market. His newest venture, Harrington Wellness, launches this summer.
Harrington has also invested in Butter Baby, a Los Angeles edibles producer that describes itself as a “woman-owned not-for-profit organization that offers THC-infused butter.”
The 16 season NBA player hopes to make it big in weed next. In GQ‘s February issue, Harrington predicted, “We’re trying to get a billion-dollar exit.” To get his businesses up and running, Al Harrington has reportedly spent $5 million of his own capital.
