High Tide Debuts In British Columbia, Opens Canna Cabana Rec Cannabis Store In Fort St. John

Canadian cannabis retailer High Tide Inc. (NASDAQ:HITI) (TSXV:HITI) (FSE: 2LYA) recently kicked off sales at its newest "Canna Cabana" retail marijuana store in Fort St. John, British Columbia.

Raj Grover, president and CEO of High Tide, said that the company is almost halfway to the provincial store cap when considering last week's announced acquisition of two operating retail cannabis stores in Vancouver through the Choom BC store portfolio.

“With this foothold in British Columbia, I anticipate that we will be able to expand quickly through both organic growth and strategic acquisitions, putting us in a position to reach the cap of 8 stores in the coming months," said Grover.
