This opening represents High Tide's 127th branded retail location across Canada, and 66th in Alberta, selling recreational cannabis products and consumption accessories.

It is part of a well-trafficked retail and commercial district anchored by numerous national big box, grocery, and discount retailers.
"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.

We remain focused on our growth across Canada, including our imminent entry into British Columbia and our rapid expansion in Ontario, but as Canada's second-largest cannabis market, Alberta has been and will remain a major pillar in our overall strategy."
