High Tide Expands Its Presence in Cornwall, Ontario

High Tide Inc., a prominent player in the retail cannabis market, has announced the opening of its newest Canna Cabana location at 525 Ninth Street in Cornwall, Ontario. This new retail outlet is set to commence sales of recreational cannabis products and consumption accessories for adults on May 12, 2025. With this opening, High Tide solidifies its position as a leading cannabis retailer, now boasting a total of 197 Canna Cabana stores across Canada, including 81 in Ontario alone.

The Cornwall area has proven to be a lucrative market for High Tide, as illustrated by the successful performance of its first Canna Cabana store located on the west side of town. The strategic placement of this new location on the east end of Cornwall aims to capitalize on the city’s growth, particularly in residential neighborhoods with high foot traffic and minimal competition. Positioned next to a major grocery chain and within a bustling shopping center, this store aims to attract a diverse array of customers.

Raj Grover, the Founder and CEO of High Tide, expressed excitement over the opening. He stated, "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."

Grover further emphasized that this expansion is carefully curated, focusing on high-quality, high-traffic real estate while maintaining strong cash flow. With the company’s same-store sales outperforming the industry, he attributed this success to their customer loyalty-driven retail model coupled with savvy location selection. He also hinted at a busy month ahead, anticipating the addition of their 200th Canna Cabana location by the end of May if all goes according to plan.
