CALGARY, AB, April 4, 2024 /CNW/ - High Tide Inc. ("High Tide" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: HITI) (TSXV: HITI) (FSE: 2LYA), the high-impact, retail-forward enterprise built to deliver real-world value across every component of cannabis, announced today that its Canna Cabana retail cannabis store located at 2901 Eglinton Avenue West, Mississauga, Ontario will begin selling recreational cannabis products and consumption accessories for adult use on Monday, April 8th. This opening will mark High Tide's 168th Canna Cabana branded retail cannabis location in Canada, the 59th in the province of Ontario and the 5th in the city of Mississauga.
Located in the west end of Mississauga, this brand-new Canna Cabana sits within a major power centre featuring a prominent Canadian home improvement retailer, a large provincial beer retailer, an established grocery chain, and several quick service restaurants. The new store is also well positioned to serve over 100,000 residents who live within a three-kilometre radius.
"I am thrilled to announce our fifth Canna Cabana in Mississauga, making us the largest cannabis retailer in Canada's fastest growing city. Our first-of-its-kind innovative discount club model coupled with a thoughtful and carefully curated retail strategy has propelled us to over 10% of market share in the provinces where we operate. All five Mississauga locations are situated in major retail power centres, surrounded by national anchor tenants with highly visible storefronts," said Raj Grover, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of High Tide.
"Our wealth of experience related to opening and operating Canna Cabana locations across the country gives me confidence that we'll be able to bring this winning approach to potential German expansion. We have been closely monitoring legislative developments there for over two years and are looking forward to bringing Canna Cabana to this lucrative market as soon as the government proceeds with their stated objective of developing regionally based pilot projects involving cannabis specialty shops," added Mr. Grover.
