CALGARY, AB, Dec.
21, 2023 /CNW/ - PRESS RELEASE - High Tide Inc., 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 11501 Buffalo Run Blvd Tsuut'ina, Alberta will begin
selling recreational cannabis products and consumption accessories for adult
use on Saturday, Dec. 23. This opening will mark High Tide's 160th Canna
Cabana branded retail cannabis location in Canada, the 78th in the province of
Alberta and the first Canna Cabana on the Tsuut'ina Nation.
Opening in the Taza Development of The Shops of Buffalo Run, this brand-new
Canna Cabana will serve community members of the Tssut'ina Nation, South West
Calgary residents and the surrounding rural communities. Situated steps away
from an internationally recognized membership-only wholesale grocery and retail
chain, this new store stands out among other strong anchor tenants such as
banks, quick-service restaurant chains, and major discount retailers. Located
just off the newly completed section of Stoney/Tsuut'ina Trail, Calgary's ring
road, this store will welcome ELITE and Cabana Club members as one of the only
cannabis stores within a two-kilometer radius.
"I am excited to announce the opening of the 160th Canna Cabana store
in Canada and the first of our flagship retail cannabis stores on the Tsuut'ina
Nation. The Shops at Buffalo Run is a high-traffic retail power center with
direct access to an estimated 100,000 community members and residents. Coupled
with strong anchor tenants and few competitors, this Canna Cabana is well
positioned to become a high revenue store," said Raj Grover, founder and
CEO of High Tide.
"I would like to thank the Tsuut'ina Nation and the Taza Development
group for welcoming the Canna Cabana brand into this exciting new development.
This store builds upon our existing partnerships with First Nations communities
in Manitoba, including the Opaskwayak Cree Nation and the Nisichawayasihk Cree
Nation. I look forward to announcing a slew of additional store openings before
the New Year," added Grover.
"We are continuously striving to provide an inviting and convenient
space for both businesses and consumers, and the continued growth and diversity
of amenities, retail, and service offerings available in The Shops at Buffalo
Run is a testament to our dedication towards that goal," said James
Robertson, president of Taza Development Corp.
"Our commitment to bringing top-notch retailers and businesses to the
area is reinforced through this new addition, and we are confident that it will
be a welcomed addition to the retail mix," added Robertson.
