“With the opening of this new store in the fast-growing community of Sherwood Park, we are further growing our footprint in the greater Edmonton region and bringing our innovative discount club model to the doorsteps of thousands of potential new customers. Our Canna Cabana locations in Edmonton and other nearby communities have been well-received, and we expect to see similar success in Sherwood Park,” said Raj Grover, President and Chief Executive Officer of High Tide. “As the largest non-franchised retailer in the province of Alberta with over 65 locations, we are prioritizing expansion in markets where we are currently not present, providing for continued brand building and revenue generation opportunities.
