“This is our first step into the United States, and we are very excited for our partnership with this experienced group to have the Choom Brands in New Jersey.” states Chris Bogart, President & CEO of Choom Holdings Inc.
The NJ Company is advancing on its retail store strategy in New Jersey with the intention of receiving licenses to operate the maximum allowable cannabis stores for medical and eventually adult use when formally approved by the State.
This is a big deal for Choom to break into the US Market, and adds to their already substantial Canadian national cannabis retail network that includes the following opportunities:
- British Columbia
- Alberta
- 30 total stores
- 3 Open Stores
- 9 Stores fully built-out and waiting for Approval
- In addition to the three licensed cannabis retail stores, the acquisition includes:
- All 30 leases secured and applications submitted to the AGLC by Clarity.
- 11 development permits awaiting construction
- Ontario:
We’ve been saying that retail cannabis could be the next big investment boom for a while, and Choom is taking some big steps towards retail dominance in Canada, and now the US.
