CALGARY, AB
, May 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ – 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 525 Ninth Street in Cornwall, Ontario, will begin selling recreational cannabis products and consumption accessories for adult use on May 12, 2025. This opening brings High Tide’s total store count to 197 Canna Cabana branded locations across Canada, and 81 in the province of Ontario.
Cornwall has already demonstrated strong potential for High Tide, highlighted by the success of its Canna Cabana retail store on the town’s west end. The company’s new east end location broadens its presence across the city and is strategically placed beside a national grocery chain, within a high-traffic community shopping centre that consistently attracts a strong volume of destination shoppers. Located near fast-growing residential areas, this new location faces little local competition and offers the Company an opportunity to diversify its presence in an already strong market of over 50,000 people.
“We’re thrilled to deepen our roots in Cornwall with the opening of our second Canna Cabana location, expanding our footprint in a city that has already embraced our unique value proposition. This new store positions us to better serve the growing east end community and exemplifies our focus on disciplined, demand-driven expansion in markets where we know we can win,” said Raj Grover, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of High Tide Inc.
“As always, this expansion is being driven by free cash flow and supported by our strategy of securing high-quality, high-traffic real estate. Our same-store sales continue to lead the industry, which we attribute to our differentiated, loyalty-focused retail model and superior site selection. May is shaping up to be a high-impact month for new store openings, and if all goes to plan, we expect to reach our milestone 200th Canna Cabana location by the end of this month,” added Mr. Grover.
