Choom Brings Premium Retail Cannabis to Vancouver, B.C. With The Launch of Its Flagship Retail Location
May 15 2020 - 8:00AM
Choom™ (CSE: CHOO; OTCQB: CHOOF), one of Canada’s leading
recreational cannabis retailers, is pleased to announce the launch
of its flagship retail store in the Olympic Village neighbourhood
of Vancouver, B.C. (191 West 2nd Avenue). The company is focused on
delivering an elevated customer experience through curated retail
environments and in-store educators, trained to provide a
personalized client experience. The location will highlight
cannabis favourites from local, B.C. licensed producers, as well as
products by some of North America’s leading cannabis brands -
including Whistler Cannabis, San Raphael ‘71 and Dosist, to name a
few. To date, Choom now has 18 retail locations across Alberta,
Ontario, and B.C., with an aggressive growth plan to increase its
national footprint over the next three to five years.
Today’s store opening follows the company’s recent acquisition
of a flagship location in Niagara Falls, Ontario, and is the first
of six stores planned for B.C.
“Today, the Choom team celebrates another exciting milestone
with the opening of our flagship store in our hometown of
Vancouver, B.C.,” said Corey Gillon, CEO of Choom. “Thanks to the
world-class, retail expertise of our team, we are excited to share
a reinvigorated version of the Choom brand - one that is founded on
providing an elevated retail experience, positioning Choom as a
leader in the retail cannabis space. From the novice user to the
more experienced, our goal with Choom is to create a unique,
welcoming environment for our customers that is rooted in our
company’s ethos.”
Through thoughtful brand storytelling, Choom encourages cannabis
consumers to embrace an active lifestyle - one that is inspired by
the social activities and pastimes of Hawaii’s famous “Choom Gang”.
Choom’s company culture and vast product offering also embody a
culture of inclusivity, catering to all cannabis consumers.
Outfitted with premium furnishings, Choom’s Vancouver flagship
store will provide customers with an elevated experience - by
bringing style and sophistication to the Canadian recreational
cannabis market. As part of the experience, Choom’s flagship
location will offer click-and-collect services to all customers,
allowing purchases to be made both in-store and online.
In support of Canadian health authority recommendations, the
store will be actively practicing social distancing and will adhere
to elevated safety and sanitization measures to protect the health
and safety of customers and in-store employees.
