Bringing Wall Street discipline from Russia's 1990s privatization era into U.S. cannabis, Jordan built Curaleaf into the world's largest cannabis company by revenue — 100-plus dispensaries, 17 states, and $1.3 billion annually.
Boris Jordan is the Chairman and CEO of Curaleaf Holdings, the largest cannabis company in the world by revenue.
Under Jordan's leadership, Curaleaf operates over 100 dispensaries across 17 states and manages extensive cultivation and processing facilities. The company generates approximately $1.3 billion in annual revenue, making it the most commercially successful cannabis operator in the United States. Before entering the cannabis industry, Jordan had a distinguished career in finance, notably playing a key role in Russia's privatization efforts in the 1990s. His decision to enter the cannabis space brought institutional-grade management and financial discipline to an industry previously dominated by smaller operators. Jordan has been a vocal advocate for federal cannabis legalization and regulatory reform, arguing that prohibition disproportionately harms minority communities and that a regulated market creates jobs, tax revenue, and safer products for consumers. His leadership in professionalizing the cannabis industry positions him as a pioneer in one of America's fastest-growing sectors.
