High Tide Opens New Canna Cabana Location in Drayton Valley, Alberta
Drayton Valley is a thriving oil and gas community with a rapidly growing population and strong local economy. Ideally positioned on the south end of Drayton Valley's town center, the store is set within a bustling plaza alongside a national grocery chain, a pharmacy, and multiple fast-food options. With excellent visibility on the central road that runs through town and well distanced from existing competitors, this new store is perfectly placed to serve the community's growing demand.
"We're thrilled to be bringing the Canna Cabana experience to Drayton Valley as we continue to deepen our presence across Alberta. This vibrant, fast-growing community is exactly the kind of market we look for—where demand is rising and Canna Cabana can make an immediate impact. With more exciting locations on the way nationwide, our momentum isn't slowing down anytime soon," said Raj Grover, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of High Tide.
"Our explosive growth in Cabana Club and ELITE memberships—now surpassing 2 million and 100,000 respectively—is a direct result of our disciplined expansion into high-value markets. As we rapidly advance toward our goal of 300 Cabanas, I have no doubt that hitting 3 million Cabana Club members is well within our sights. And with the strong year-over-year momentum we're building, we believe ELITE is only beginning to show its true potential," added Mr. Grover.
Employee Stock Options Grant
In addition, High Tide announces the grant of 58,500 incentive stock options (the "Options") to various employees of the Company. Each Option is exercisable at the closing price of the Company's common shares listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") based on the last trading day immediately prior to this press release, expires three years from the date of grant, and vests over a two-year period. Each Option is exercisable to purchase one common share of the Company and are being issued pursuant to the terms of the Company's Omnibus Plan, which became effective on June 2, 2022.
